CEO and founder of Ring, Jamie Siminoff, said in a recent interview that he believes Nancy Guthrie would have already been found if more people bought his products.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, vanished from her home in the early hours of February 1 in what is now being investigated as a kidnapping.
As the desperate manhunt has surpassed a month, law enforcement has still come up short in finding Savannah's elderly mother.
Arguably, the biggest break in the case came 10 days into the search when the Federal Bureau of Investigation announced that they had recovered lost surveillance camera footage from a Nest camera on Nancy's front door.
In an interview with Fortune, Siminoff audaciously claimed that if Nancy had more Ring cameras around her house, the case could have been solved.
'I do believe if they had more of it, if there was more cameras on the house, I think we might, you know, have solved [the case],' he said.
Siminoff added that the recovered surveillance camera footage appeared to be the best evidence law enforcement has.
'The Nancy Guthrie thing has shown just how important video and more video would be in a case like this,' he continued.

The CEO added that the case highlighted the importance of surveillance footage, telling Fortune: 'I think this is just another example of how important it is to have video at your house, to be able to have systems like Ring.'
Siminoff added that his company has been cooperating with authorities as the case into Nancy's disappearance continues.
He revealed that Ring has been involved in community alerts and recovered footage of a suspicious car two and a half miles away from Nancy's residence in Tucson.
When deputies with the Pima County Sheriff's Department initially responded to Nancy's disappearance, they discovered that her front doorbell camera had been disabled, and there was blood on the door.
Nancy owned a Nest device, which is owned by Google; however, she did not have a subscription, so the overnight footage did not save.
However, the FBI later announced that they recovered the lost surveillance, which revealed a masked man approaching her doorstep on the night she disappeared.
Nancy lives in the suburban neighborhood of Catalina Foothills. Her mansion is far from the road, and surveillance camera footage from her neighbors did not capture any significant leads on the night of her disappearance.
The lack of video proved to be a challenge for investigators in the first days of the case.
The surveillance camera footage took days to recover because Nancy did not have a Nest camera subscription, and the device was disabled when authorities first searched the home.
