As of the time of writing, we’re approaching the Lunar New Year once again - and this year, we welcome the Year of the Fire Horse.
As always, it’s a good moment to slow down, look back at what we’ve built together, and share what’s coming next, and just now we realized that what a productive year it was for us.
So, what did we do this year?
- We released the Totemist and the Zenith, 2 of our newest premium designs, these two designs were a way for us to test the water with more premium designs. They were a success, and you can expect there will be more of these in the future.
- We significantly reduced the price of our build service. Getting a fully built ergonomic keyboard is now cheaper than ever. Our goal here was simple: lower the barrier to entry and make high-quality ergonomic keyboards more accessible.
- We found a reliable replacement for the roller encoder. Ever since we started our sofle hybrid with the roller encoders, it's been a bottleneck for us, the price and availability was bad and we can't keep up with productions. Lucky for us, we found a solution during the last year and it's wonderful.
- Behind the scenes, we continued refining our manufacturing workflows and supplier coordination, especially for aluminum parts, to keep consistency and quality where it matters most, while maintaining the prices.
So, what’s coming next year?
- More new designs, We experimented with gasket-mount designs last year and we're still refining it, hopefully we can reduce the price so we can bring this wonderful design into our ergomech world.
- Expanded use of roller encoders across upcoming keyboards now that we finally have a dependable supply.
- And as always, we’ll keep improving existing products, fixing small annoyances, and polishing the details that make a keyboard feel right.
Thank you for sticking with us this year - and let's hope for the new year is even more successful. We’re incredibly grateful to be able to do this, and we don’t take that lightly.
