Tell us a bit about yourself and what you want to test. We review every application and will get back to you.
Thanks for applying — we will review your request and get back to you. We go through every application personally, so give us a couple of days. Keep an eye on your inbox!
No experience needed. Describe your idea in plain words — a smart lamp, a plant waterer, a personal AI assistant — and if we love your idea, we'll build it and post it on the website for free. We use tiny computers called Arduino and ESP32 that can make almost anything possible.
Hi, we're the team behind Varible. We love making electronics — and we love helping people who have a cool idea but don't know where to start. You don't need to know anything technical. Just tell us what you want and we'll figure it out. That's the whole deal.
We're in beta right now — building and testing with our first users. Our Kickstarter campaign is not live yet. Sign up below to be the very first to know when it launches, with exclusive early-bird pricing.

Think of us as your personal electronics team. Describe what you want in everyday words — we figure out the techy bits and make it happen.
Got an idea? A smart lamp, an automatic plant waterer, a custom alarm? Tell us — we design and build it from scratch, just for you.
No jargon neededWe can make your gadget send you notifications, connect to Wi-Fi, or talk to apps. Imagine your plant texting you when it's thirsty — that kind of thing.
ESP32 · Wi-Fi · BluetoothNot sure if your idea will work? We build a rough working version super fast so you can try it out before we polish it.
Ready in days, not monthsEvery gadget needs a program that tells it what to do. We write it, explain it in plain English, and give you the full code — it's yours forever.
Clean, readable code includedPick a real project you want. We create a custom guide tailored to your exact project and walk you through every step. You'll understand how it all works.
Perfect for total beginnersNeed 5 or 10 of the same device? Once we launch fully, we'll source the parts, assemble everything, and test each one. Coming after Kickstarter.
Small batch, full qualityWe never repeat. Every device, kit, and build that leaves our workshop is completely unique — designed from scratch by our in-house team specifically for you. We combine electronics engineering with thoughtful industrial design so your device doesn't just work beautifully — it looks beautiful too. No templates, no clones, no copy-paste.
Open any Varible product and you'll find two things: a unique serial number that belongs only to your device, and a QR code you can scan to reach your personal product page — with your full specs, circuit diagrams, component list, firmware version, and build notes. A permanent record of exactly what you have and how it was made.

Don't see your idea? Scroll down and describe it. If you can imagine it, we can probably build it.
A smart lamp? Weather station? AI assistant? Robot? Choose something you genuinely want to make — that's the whole point.
We work out every component your project needs and create a custom guide built specifically for your build — nothing generic.
Our guide explains everything in plain English — not "connect pin 14 to GND" but "plug this wire here, and here's why it matters."
Once it works we give you fun challenges to modify it. That's where the real learning happens — by messing around!
No fixed catalogue. You choose your project — a lamp, a robot, a personal AI, a MIDI controller, anything — and we build the learning experience around it. That's how you actually learn electronics: by making something you care about.
We believe every student deserves to learn electronics and coding with their hands. Our school kits are designed for teachers and students — whether you're in Vienna or rural Kenya.
Each kit is packed with everything a student needs to build a real project from start to finish. No sourcing, no missing parts:
When ordering, schools choose the components that match their curriculum. Common options include:
Not sure what to choose? Just tell us your curriculum goals and we'll recommend the right mix.
We keep school kit pricing as low as possible so that budget is never a barrier.
Whether you're a well-funded school or running a coding club with no budget — message us and we'll find a way to make it work.
Get school pricing →We're working on something bigger. For schools in developing countries, we're building a programme to donate refurbished laptops to students who don't have a device to code on.
Without a computer, an Arduino kit is only half the story. Our goal is to make sure every student in our programme has both the hardware kit and a laptop to write and upload code.
This programme is still in development. We expect to launch it 6–12 months after our main Kickstarter launch. Schools in developing countries who register interest now will be first in line when it becomes available.
Register your school →Fill in this form and we'll get back to you with pricing, options, and next steps. Schools in developing countries are especially welcome — we will always find a way to make it work.
Takes about 2 minutes. We read every submission personally and reply within a few days.
We price school kits as low as we possibly can. Bulk orders of 10+ get an automatic discount. Schools with limited budgets get subsidised pricing — just tell us your situation and we'll work something out.
Schools in developing countries are a priority for us. Qualifying schools receive kits at heavily subsidised or zero cost. Our laptop donation programme (launching 6–12 months after Kickstarter) will also donate refurbished laptops to students who need them.
We read every registration personally and reply within a few days with pricing, options, and next steps. No automated replies — a real person from our team will get back to you.
Thank you for registering your school. A real person from our team will read this and get back to you within a few days with pricing, options, and next steps. We're excited to work with you!
Simple, friendly, zero gatekeeping. Here's exactly what happens.
"I want something that waters my plants automatically" is a perfect brief. No schematics needed — plain words work great.
We pick the right tiny computer, design the circuit, and write a simple plan. We share it with you first — nothing happens until you say yes.
We solder, program, and test everything. Once it works, we post it on the Varible website — completely free. You get full credit and all the code.
The build is posted publicly with a full write-up of how it was made. You get the code, the guide, and full credit for the idea.
Fill this in and we'll personally read your idea. The best ones we'll build and post on the Varible website — 100% free. Not every idea gets selected, but we consider every single one.
We personally read every idea. If yours excites us, we'll build it and post it on the Varible website for free — you'll get full credit. We'll reach out if we have questions.
We're being completely transparent about where we're at and what's coming.
We built and tested our first custom devices and gathered real feedback.

In Progress 🔥Our full public launch with early-bird kits, exclusive rewards, and school pricing.
1 May 2026Full classroom kits available globally, with subsidised pricing for developing-country schools.
Post-launchFree refurbished laptops for students in developing nations who join our school programme.
6–12 months post-launch"I had zero idea about electronics. The Edu Kit changed that in a single weekend. I built a Wi-Fi sensor and actually understood every part of it. That felt incredible."
"We described what we needed in a message. They replied with a full plan, built it, and posted the project on the website for free. Couldn't believe how smooth it was."
"Got the robot kit for my 14-year-old. She had never written a line of code. Now she's modifying the firmware herself and building add-ons. Best thing I've ever bought her."
We believe everyone should be able to build cool things, regardless of budget. The best ideas we receive get built and posted on the site completely free. Edu Kits start at just a few euros/dollars, and every custom build comes with a clear upfront quote. You'll never be surprised by a bill. Beta testers get an extra discount on top.
Sometimes a project is too technically complex or requires parts we can't source reliably. If that happens, we will always tell you clearly and cancel with a 100% full refund, no questions asked. We never start work on something we're not confident about. Our reputation matters more than any single sale.
Classroom packs with teacher guides and student worksheets. Special bulk pricing for schools, and subsidised pricing for schools in developing countries. We especially want to reach schools that can't normally afford this. If you run a school or NGO anywhere in the world — please reach out.
