Inside the Pillow
We've taken great care to invisibly integrate Tangible's electronics so that you can enjoy their magical functionality, without even noticing they're there.
Why Tangible?
Distance takes away our ability to enjoy the meaningful everyday interactions that make being in-person so magical – the warm embrace, the touch on the shoulder, the playful poke, the gentle arm squeeze.
Physical touch makes communication simpler, and gives us the power to soothe and support. We lose these abilities when we're miles apart.
Tangible recaptures this lost magic and brings it back to your relationship, in a delightfully cozy way that adds new dimensions to how you share love over distance.

Our Design Journey
We're a small founding team tackling an extremely challenging design problem: how to feel present over distance.
See how far we've come:
Our three co-founders (Akshay, Katie, & Paul) came together in 2021, with the goal of creating a magical solution that could fill the gap of distance.
After building & testing 50 different concepts with over 200 long-distance couples, we successfully launched Tangible on Kickstarter, and were featured as a "Project We Love."
We've already witnessed countless magical moments of Tangible users enjoying a new dimension of presence over distance.
Now, we're excited to share Tangible with the world, and continue making our solution as fulfilling as it can be.
