Why we are making it
We spent the last year building prototypes and testing them with real people. Your pledge pays for the first production run, so we can order materials in bulk and keep the price fair.
Where the money goes
60% manufacturing, 20% shipping and packaging, 10% tooling and certification, 10% the platform fee and payment processing.
Timeline
Month 1: final samples. Month 2: production. Month 3: packing and shipping to backers.
