A little background
2016 - 2019
We were working hard to save enough money to start a business. Imagine a young couple, with a big dream. Both delivering food on our bicycles, eating from the trash (literally), and saving every single penny.
We studied and learned as much as we could from YouTube, books, and some paid courses.
Mar, 2019
We tried, and failed. Several times. But we kept on trying until...
Feb, 2020
Finally, our first success. Only a few orders per day, but everything was going well… until it wasn’t.
COVID had other plans. The world changed. But we weren’t ready to give up the fight.
Jul, 2020
We stabilized our sales, with our first product designed by ourselves… We hired two friends and finally saw the dream getting closer.
Dec, 2020
Many people ripped our products. They were even on Aliexpress with our brand logo on it 🙁
Jan, 2021
The Customizer was born. After months of research and testing, we finally got our first version out there!... It was good, with some problems but good.
May, 2021
We expanded, and suddenly we weren’t four anymore. We started to become a team.
Jan, 2022
We continued learning and growing, and Culiau with us. Having learned from past failures, we patented all our products and designs.
Jun, 2022
With a team of 17 people, we decided to launch the V3.0 of our product. And again, we failed.
We failed at quality control and troubleshooting within the electric board. Again, we stood up and kept fighting for this dream.
Sep, 2022
With a lot of effort, we solved the problem and re-sent about 12.000 units. We bear the cost (getting in the reds again). It was a tough decision, but easy because we always put our customers first.
Dec, 2022
The team (30 people by this time), Culiau, and our dreams kept getting bigger and bigger.
And it’s only the beginning.
Here’s to a long-lasting story. Here’s to the future.
