Where these facts come from
Release dates are the Connectivity Standards Alliance's announcement dates (its announcements, read October 20, 2026). Its specifications page, its newsroom, its site search and the Matter 1.6 and 1.4.2 announcements were re-read on November 12, 2026, and each is linked where it is used. Counts: the CSA Distributed Compliance Ledger, which MatterCatalog reads every day; this page is rebuilt from each read. Each certificate's ledger record states the Matter specification version of the firmware it certifies (its specificationVersion field). A model is one vendor ID and product ID; it can hold several certificates on different versions, so it can count under more than one version in "Models certified on it", and counts once, under its highest version, in "Models with it as their highest" (the rule our Matter versions explainer uses). Device types are the ledger's (or the CSA's certified-product listing when the ledger has none). MatterCatalog does not test devices and is not affiliated with the CSA.
