Crowd Supply operates as a launchpad for open hardware, hackables, and high-end goods designed around open-design principles. The platform supports creators from strategy and crowdfunding through ongoing sales and fulfillment, helping ideas reach the market. Among its notable launches are an open hardware laptop from bunnie and xobs, Purism’s Librem laptop, and Circuit Stickers by Chibitronics; it is described as the only crowdfunding platform endorsed by the Free Software Foundation for privacy and freedom, with every funded product reportedly delivered to backers. Based in Portland, Oregon, Crowd Supply was founded by a team of product engineers from MIT Media Lab. It operates within the technology and information sector, focusing on open hardware and the services that bring such products to market. In late 2025, Crowd Supply launched WebScreen, with production reported to be running smoothly.
