I'm after something that is smart enabled (tuya/google/shelly/alexa etc) that has at least 2 digital inputs, I need to monitor the status of a piece of hardware to see if it's either open or closed.

Anyone know of anything off the shelf?

Have a look at the shelly I series https://www.shelly.com/products/shelly-i4-gen3?_pos=1&_psq=shelly+i4&_ss=e&_v=1.0 I haven't used the I series my self but have used other shelly products and am happy with them.

Shipping from Shelly Europe is usually 3-4 weeks.

There are many options for door/window sensors, basically contact sensor, is that what you're after?
