No hub is required. Swidget Wi-Fi devices connect directly to your home's 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, and you control them through the free Swidget app. There is no bridge, base station, or subscription needed: install the device, download the app, and pair it to your Wi-Fi.
The one exception is our Z-Wave inserts. Z-Wave is a hub-based protocol, so a Z-Wave insert needs a compatible Z-Wave hub such as SmartThings, Hubitat, or Home Assistant with a Z-Wave controller. If you are not sure which type you have, Wi-Fi inserts pair through the Swidget app while Z-Wave inserts pair through your hub.
Keep in mind that Swidget Wi-Fi devices need the 2.4 GHz band. If your router combines 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz under one network name and you run into pairing trouble, see Wi-Fi Network Compatibility.
