About Us

Hey there! We're a close-knit team operating out of Wisconsin, dedicated to making the world of ergonomic keyboards more accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Since 2022, we've helped over 5,000 customers build their perfect keyboards.

It all started with Nick (that's me!) back in 2020. I created the nice!nano, a little microcontroller that sparked a big wave of wireless innovation in the DIY keyboard community. Seeing the excitement and potential, I set out to raise the bar for the DIY experience and launched this store in 2022.

Our mission is simple: We want to make it easy for you to build your dream keyboard. We offer full ergonomic keyboard kits and a super user-friendly kit builder that gives you complete control.

But it's not just about the products – it's about the experience. From day one, my dad, Mike, has been the backbone of our operations, fulfilling orders and providing top-notch support to our amazing customers. We were even running the whole show out of my parents' house! Thankfully, at the end of 2024 we moved into a "real" office, and my college roommate, Jack, (who was there when the nice!nano was born!) joined the team.

What Makes Us Different?

  • Quality & Simplicity: We believe in crafting high-quality, streamlined products that are both beautiful and functional.

  • Customer-First Approach: We're committed to providing an exceptional experience, from browsing our site to building your keyboard and beyond. Your satisfaction is our top priority.

  • Open Source Love: We're passionate about giving back to the open-source community that helped us get started.

Don't just take our word for it - join our thriving community of thousands of builders on Discord and check out the hundreds of reviews from our customers.

We're so excited to be on this journey, and we're even more excited to have you join us. Whether you're a seasoned keyboard enthusiast or just starting to explore the world of custom keyboards, we're here to help you every step of the way.

Thanks for stopping by!
