🎉 THANK YOU! Our Campaign has funded – Thanks to YOU!
12 months ago – Thu, Apr 03, 2025 at 05:12:40 PM

Hey Backers,

We did it — and it’s all thanks to YOU!

Our Kickstarter campaign funding phase has officially ended, and we’re blown away by the support and enthusiasm from every single one of you. Whether you’ve been following us from day one or just joined at the finish line, thank you for believing in our project and helping bring it to life.

What Happens Now?

Here’s a quick look at what comes next:

🔄 Kickstarter will now take 14 days to collect pledges. After this period, they’ll release the funds to us. Once we receive them, we’ll be able to make a down payment to our manufacturing partner and officially kick off mass production. This is a huge milestone, and we’re excited to move forward!

⚙️ In the meantime, we’ll be using the next 14 days (or less) to set up and test our pledge manager survey. Through the pledge manager, you’ll be able to:

  • Confirm your reward tier
  • Provide your shipping address
  • Pay any applicable shipping fees
  • Browse and purchase optional add-ons

We’ll send out another update as soon as the pledge manager is ready, with clear instructions to walk you through the process.

Which survey will we use?

At this time, we are still undecided on whether to use BackerKit, PledgeBox, PledgeManager, or Kickstarter's Survey as our post-campaign survey. Once we complete our research we will be back soon with another backer update.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you again.

🚀 An Incredible First 24 Hours – Thank You!
about 1 year ago – Wed, Mar 05, 2025 at 01:25:36 PM

Hey Backers,

It's been 24 hours since launch and 239 backers pushed us over our initial goal with $16,880 in pledges!

Thanks to you, our loyal backers, we’re off to an amazing start!

Pre-Launch Page

Before launching, we had a pre-launch page and it showed 388 backers subscribed to be notified at launch. However, we noticed that not all of them had a chance to visit the campaign yet (analytics show us that only 295 backers have visited the campaign in total). With that being said, we decided to extend the "24 Hours Only" pledge reward to give more backers, more time to take advantage of the awesome price.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us—we can’t wait to see what the next 24 hours bring!
