Who are we?

We started as three gamers from the Netherlands that got fed up with the gaming stereotype and terrible customer communication by “gaming” companies. Now we’re a team of five and a great community challenging the industry.

Calder, Jeroen and Erik came together to create the Wooting one.

We run Wooting with modern practices, open communication and transparency. At its core, it’s you with us challenging the industry and making impactful products. That’s why we crowdfunded our first product, the Wooting one, and keep the community at heart.

Currently, our mission is to make analog keyboards an industry standard. We strongly believe it's the next step and are doing our best to support further developments within the field.
