Hands-on coding for 4+

The CodePad

A screen-free coding console where children snap magnetic bricks to write real programs. No screens, no apps, just play.

Brick Tokens

Each magnetic brick represents a programming command, from movement and logic to variables and functions.

Instant Execution

Snap bricks together, press Start, and watch your program run immediately on the built-in display.

Designed for Little Hands

Instant Power-On

No boot time, no pairing, no accounts. Flip the switch and start coding in seconds.

Built-In Display

A vibrant 320×240 LCD shows your program output: games, animations, and feedback, right on the device.

Connect to Anything

An open-source SDK lets children control robots, LEDs, motors, and custom electronics, bridging code and the physical world.

Open-Source SDK

Build your own games, peripherals, and lesson plans with our fully open Python SDK.

UART Connectivity

A simple 3-pin connector lets you hook up any microcontroller or sensor board.

Proven Turing-Complete

Our brick language (PBPL) is formally proven Turing-complete in Coq. This means children can express any computation that a real programming language can, using just physical bricks.

About us

We build screen-free, software-enabled coding bricks that kids can stack, test, and remix to learn by doing. We turn play into tangible code with magnetic clicks that spark problem solving and creativity.

Main features of our coding kit
