Parm Dhoot and Tye Davis know how confounding it can be to figure out if your laptop microphone is live or dead. In "Shark Tank" season 13, the duo presented investors with a device called MuteMe, a light-up indicator that makes it abundantly clear to you and those around you whether your mic is live or not. Unfortunately, Dhoot and Davis walked away from "Shark Tank" without a deal, but their televised departure was no walk of shame.

Not only is the MuteMe company very much still in business in 2025, but over the last three-plus years, the brand has actually expanded quite a bit. In 2022, MuteMe reported earnings of over $1 million. The brand even introduced a new product to its fold, the MuteMe Mini. While Kickstarter definitely played a hand in getting MuteMe up and running, the brand continues to show steady growth.

MuteMe now offers two main products, the standard MuteMe button and the MuteMe Mini, a smaller version of the technology with a built-in USB-C or USB-A connector. Regardless of which MuteMe you own, here's how it works. First, plug the device into your laptop or desktop PC via USB, and download the free MuteMe software. Now, you're ready to start using it. Simply tap the top of your MuteMe product to mute and unmute your computer mic.

When you're on a call, your MuteMe will light up green, blue, or one of six other programmable colors. This lets everyone around you know you're in the middle of a call. When it's time to mute the mic, simply tap again, and your MuteMe will illuminate red, indicating your mic is now muted. MuteMe products are compatible with thousands of the best headphones and microphones, plus several popular conference platforms, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Chime.

While isn't much recent hardware news to report, back in November 2024, MuteMe acquired mütesync, a productivity hardware company that produces its own physical mute buttons for video conferencing platforms. In a press release, MuteMe CEO and co-founder Dhoot said, "Our acquisition of mütesync is a major step forward in our mission to make virtual meetings more effective and efficient. We are thrilled to welcome mütesync users to the MuteMe family, and we're committed to enhancing their experience with the reliability and innovation that our customers have come to expect."

What does such an acquisition mean for MuteMe? For starters, the company now has access to mütesync's back catalogue of IP, software, and customer support resources. The latter also gave up its name to the former. That means if you happen to own any mütesync products, support is now handled by the MuteMe team.

MuteMe products are available to purchase on Amazon and directly through the manufacturer. Interested to learn more about muting technology? Check out this speaker that researchers claim can mute annoying people in real life.
