Pick your tier

Four choices — no upsell tricks.

Every tier is priced from the factory cost up. We publish the parts list and the margin. No fake "premium" features invented to push you to the next tier — only real material and capability differences.

What makes it different

Why it's built this way.

A screen in your kitchen shouldn't be a feed that eats your attention.

No. 01
Glance-first interface
Time, temperature, what matters today. No notifications clamoring. No app store. No ads.
No. 02
Covert home mode
For survivors, DV, undocumented, trans-questioning households — a home screen that a roommate or a cop glancing over can't parse.
No. 03
Measured brightness specs
sRGB %, peak nits, viewing angle — all published and tested. No 'up to' numbers.
What we won't do
  • We won't mirror an ad business — no ambient ads, no sponsored cards.
  • We won't listen by default — the microphone is physical-off unless you enable it.
  • We won't trap your dashboard state — if you want it in Home Assistant, that's where it goes.
How it plays with others

Three ways to use it, no walled garden.

This product works by itself, works with whatever you already own, and goes deeper if you pair it with the rest of the WanderVerse. Your choice — not ours.

On its own
Standalone

Power it up and use it. No cloud account, no internet required.

Runs alone as a clock

With WanderVerse
Paired, deeper

Pair with a WanderNode Hub and the whole ecosystem starts talking to itself.

WanderNode Hub dashboard — primary use

Your dollar knows where it goes.

Every WanderDash sale feeds three places: the Ambassador who built it, a community-held HYSA, and the WWP 501(c)(3) Community Pool — which funds LGBTQ+ scholarships, free devices for survivors, and harm-reduction grants. No quarterly earnings call. No activist investor. No rug-pull.

60% Ambassador wages
10% PrideFund HYSA
30% WWP Community Pool

All three splits go to work before a single dollar reaches Michael. He gets paid by W-2 from the LLC, like anyone else.

Honest timeline

Ship dates that haven't been promised yet.

2027 fall
Design validation — second round of prototypes, certification labs engaged.
2028 summer

2028 fall
Founders' Access shipping — limited-run, priced to recover factory costs only.
