Team Tindie

One year ago today, Tindie was launched.

What started as a question on Reddit, has become a global business. Most importantly, we are showing that open hardware is a global movement. We’re in the top of the first inning so it is still very early but the signs are incredibly positive. With this first year behind us, we wanted to share some of our data, and a look back on a great year.

Including Government Agencies, Universities, and Fortune 500 companies.

248 businesses from 39 countries

809 products in 47 categories
