Does the SwitchBot Blind Tilt work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The Blind Tilt tilts existing venetian blinds.

To get it into HomeKit through Matter, you need a SwitchBot Hub 2. It is a Bluetooth motor charged by a solar panel. It suits HomeKit users through an integration (a Matter bridge). Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings users reach it through an integration (the maker's cloud). Home Assistant users reach it through an integration (Bluetooth).
