Your ideas, made physical.
From idea to product. From product to business.
Physily is the platform that turns your idea into a product. Describe a device in plain words: our engines design its circuit board, case and firmware and work out what one costs to make. Once enough people back it, it's made, under your name.
We're building it now, and we'll invite people in small groups when it's ready.
Idea“A wireless stack light for any machine that shows red, amber or green, and that I can set from my phone.”
You bring the idea. Physily does the engineering.
Physily doesn't make or sell products of its own. What comes out of it is yours: your name on it, your price, your backers.
- Your idea
Say what the device should do, in a sentence or a page, and pick a look, from toy to industrial.
- Design
Physily designs the circuit board, the case and the firmware and checks each one. Order a prototype whenever you want one.
- Price
You get the parts list and what one costs to make, as a range. Your margin on top sets the price.
- Backing
Anyone can back it within that range. Nobody is charged unless enough people back it for a factory run.
- Making
Factories quote through BXNode, the final price is set from their quotes, never above the range, and the run is made.
Made with Physily
Every product here began as one person's idea and belongs to them. When enough people back one, it's made, and nobody is charged until then. The first ones are 2027 concepts, not built yet.

Daybadge
An e-paper schedule card that hangs on a school lanyard.
UpcomingGoal 1,000 cards · $43–$69 each, estimated
-

Wireless stack light
A stack light with red, amber and green lenses, a buzzer and a Wi-Fi radio, so a phone can set it or read its state.
-

DIN-rail LoRa gateway
A control-cabinet module that connects to your Modbus meters over RS-485 on screw terminals and has a LoRa radio to send their readings out, running from 5 V DC.
-

Bolt-on vibration sensor
It screws into a tapped hole in a motor housing by its M8 stud and measures vibration with a 3-axis accelerometer, sending readings over Bluetooth LE through its plastic cap.
-

Field loop meter
It goes in series with a 4-20 mA sensor loop through two 4 mm sockets on top, shows the current on a small screen and is built to send each reading to your phone over Bluetooth.
-

Counter label printer
It takes shipping labels from your phone over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and feeds them out over a metal tear bar, and its smoked lid tips back on a rear hinge to load a 100 mm roll.
-

Meeting room panel
It shows whether a meeting room is free, and books it with one tap on the screen.
-

Climate sensor, Industrial
A bolted-down box with a cable gland and a steel sensor port.
-

Climate sensor, Business
A slim plate for an office wall, in aluminium and dark glass.
-

Climate sensor, Toy
A soft creature for a shelf, with the screen as its face.
-

Follow-me desk camera
A small computer in the head finds you in the picture, and two servos pan and tilt to keep you in frame.
-

Solar bird-feeder camera
A bird landing on the perch wakes the camera to photograph it.
-

Off-grid pocket messenger
It sends short messages to friends' devices over long-range LoRa radio, with no phone network, and GPS shows how far away each friend is.
-

Desk companion robot
Its screen face shows two glowing eyes, and a servo turns its head toward you.
-

Research biped
This two-legged research robot stands 29 cm tall on a lab bench, with 13 smart servos, a camera in a machined pod on a pan-tilt neck, and a small Linux computer and motion sensor under its aluminium deck.
-

Server room rover
A small inspection rover for a server room, with a LiDAR on a rear turret and a camera and two white light strips behind a dark front window.
-

Legged inspection robot
A small four-legged robot for looking round a plant room, with a camera and two white lights behind a dark window in its rubber nose.
-

RF magnetic survey meter
This handheld meter finds 2.4 GHz radio sources, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and strong magnetic fields.
-

Five-finger tendon hand
A five-finger hand whose motors sit in its forearm.
One board, three looks
The look is a choice, and the electronics stay the same. All three hold one circuit board, screen and battery, from one sentence: “A sensor that watches temperature and humidity and messages me when they drift.” Rendered from the real design files; not built yet.

What's built so far
Physily joins engines our team already builds and uses. The joined-up platform isn't ready yet. Here's where each part stands.
| Firmware (BXForge) | Writes, builds, flashes and checks firmware on real radio chips and low-power microcontrollers. It has written complete LoRa + GPS firmware for our collar that runs end to end with a live gateway. |
|---|---|
| Circuit boards | Picks parts, places and routes boards, checks them, and writes standard manufacturing files. No board it designed has been manufactured yet. That's next. |
| Cases and moving parts | Builds cases around a board with fit checks, plus gears, hinges and joints. It rendered the images on this page. |
| Board to factory | Our team has taken four devices of its own, a collar, an ear tag, a light tag and a gateway, from a first board to factory production. Physily puts that path in your hands. |
| Business tools (BXNode) | Quotes, supplier orders, stock and invoices, in beta. It's sold on its own too, at bxnode.com. |
| Not built yet | One flow that takes your device from a typed idea to a working unit. The beta has to prove that first, with real builds. |

Physily turns it into a real product. We invite people in small groups: join the waitlist, tell us what you'd make, and you could be one of the first.
