# Providers

Seam maintains a list of supported providers that you can access using the [List Device Providers](https://docs.seam.co/latest/~/revisions/DFdrUdS2jQOnbJTNDT5a/api/devices/list_device_providers) endpoint. For a provider, this endpoint returns a subset of the following information, depending on the capabilities of the provider's devices:
