E-Paper, built for speed.

A revolution in digital ink.

E-Paper is commonly used in e-readers and signage, but generally dismissed as too slow or impractical for electronics or computers.

Not anymore.

Zerowriter Ink boasts an Inkplate 5v2 display board with a custom engine to drive fast partial updates. The end result is a smooth, fluid typing experience like you would expect.

Text that sings.

Zerowriter Ink packs a fast 5.2" high resolution e-paper display. This means sharp text, clean paragraphs, and eye-friendly contrast.

Find your focus.

There's nothing between you and your writing canvas. No popups, no notifications, no noise. Work on your projects free of blue light or LCDs.

Your new favourite keyboard.

61 key low-profile mechanical keyboard.

A device for writing has to feel good. That's why we've used the best low-profile keyboard switches and keycaps out there.

Zerowriter Ink comes loaded with 61 Pro Red Choc V1 switches. This is a balanced switch with a modest tactile feel and sound, similar to a traditional brown switch.

Make it yours.

Each key and switch is removable. This means you can replace, repair, and customize every single key on the keyboard. Explore dozens of options for switches, and find the perfect feel for you.

We speak your language.

Zerowriter Ink supports most Western / European languages and characters. We're working on adding more regions.

Currently supported: English, French, French Canadian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian, Swedish, and most other Western European languages. Deadkeys / Diacriticals pre-configured.

Zerowriter Ink uses a specific set of 256 characters: you can find them here.

There when you need it.

Instant on.

Switch it on and write. Within seconds, you are back to crafting.

Long, long, long lasting battery.

Fully charged, we've got enough juice for 50-100 hours of writing time. Why the wide range? Your Zerowriter Ink only uses power when you are typing. Some ponder, some poke, some peck. And others write like the wind.

Reliability, preinstalled.

Every inch of Zerowriter Ink was built for writers, creatives, students, and professionals. That includes dedicated writing software that is built to handle and managing text files. Easily move text to your computer or phone when you need it.

A tool you can trust.

Zerowriter Ink is purpose-built and completely disconnected from the Internet.

Your words, thoughts, and ideas are yours. There's no cloud, there's no AI, and everything you need is already inside.

Perfectly portable.

Zerowriter Ink is there for your marathon writing sessions, wherever you have them. Comfortable in your bag, in your purse, on your bedside, or on the beach.
