I actually only recently tried Claude Code. I didn't realize it was such a big thing now. I also find the signal to noise ratio is really low when it comes to AI hype.
If you've seen Kinesis Advantage, it's similar but with a smaller more compact size. It also has a thumb cluster that's not as hard to reach because of its downward angle (uses thumb abduction instead of thumb extension, which puts you into a more ergonomic handshake position). The layer keys are also offset at a lower height so you won't accidentally hit it. It's QMK compatible and hotswappable.
If you're why doesn't this guy just check the AI scribe notes? Well, probably because with the amount of detail it writes, he'd be better off writing a quick soap note.
It's split in two so you can position them at shoulder width. It's angled so your wrists are in more natural positioning (reduced pronation), and curved to prevent finger overstretching (finger joints have arc-shaped range of motion). It's injection molded and hot-swappable.
I've been working on this since 2022 and am getting close to launch. It's gotten very good feedback from beta testers.
I'm an physician who previously had wrist tendinosis and carpal tunnel and made the keyboard for myself. I'm trying to get the keyboard registered as a medical device for treatment of hand/wrist repetitive strain injury. Currently getting design for manufacturing finalized, and waiting on injection mold prototypes. Hoping to launch on Kickstarter in the next few months.
Also concurrently waiting on ethics approval for a clinical study, which will happen after launch. We had quite promising results from user testing, so I'm cautiously optimistic about the study.
