Pricing is an estimate while the device is in development and may change before launch.

RGB Per Key: Every one of the 9 keys has its own addressable RGB LED, controllable individually from Home Assistant.
Plug & Play: Connect it to Wi-Fi and it shows up in Home Assistant automatically — no app, no account, no cloud.
Desk or Wall: Pick the variant that fits your space — same device, different mount.
Open Source: The PCB, enclosure, and firmware are all public — no lock-in, and you can see exactly what's running on it.

Why I'm Building This

I wanted a physical keypad for my own Home Assistant setup and couldn't find one I actually liked, so I designed my own. Figured other people running Home Assistant probably want the same thing.
