About · the studio
We made a tiny keyboard
because we got tired of
clicking "allow."
The story
Permission, with friction.
sudo.supply was born from a simple frustration: AI agents asking for permission, and having no satisfying way to say yes. We build mechanical macro pads for developers who live in the terminal and work alongside AI every day. A tactile way to approve, reject, or override, because critical decisions shouldn't be buried in a terminal prompt.
Open hardware
Certified OSHW.
The sudo macro pad is certified Open Source Hardware. You can manufacture, modify, and distribute it freely. All design files live in our GitHub repo.
The ecosystem
More than one button.
What started as a single approve button has grown into a full developer platform. The companion app detects AI apps automatically, finds buttons via accessibility tree + OCR + keyboard fallback, and supports macro sequences, per-app profiles, and quick presets for everything from Claude Code to Discord soundboards. A local developer API on port 7483 with webhooks, an MCP server mode for gating AI tool use behind physical approval, and a plugin system make it extensible. Anonymous telemetry feeds a public analytics dashboard, and OTA updates keep everything current.
