Complete Creative
Work Faster
The world's top video, audio and design studios use tools and shortcuts to produce high quality creative work faster. The InputZen BuildBox puts the same shortcuts & workflows in your hands!
Obsessed With Producing Creative Work Fast!
Produce enough creative work and you learn that speed and quality are always the bottlenecks. High quality work comes with focus & practice, things that can only be built over time with lots of dedication. Speed is different. Speed requires better workflows & processes.
Speed is different.

We're Building the Ultimate Shortcut Machine
BuildBox Macropad
Coming SoonThey used to tell us "don't take shortcuts" ~ but with so much work to get done and things to build, we need all the shortcuts we can get!
The BuildBox macropad is the ultimate shortcut machine. We've packed in:
- ▶ 16 keys and up to 10 layers (160 total) of assignable shortcuts, macros and hotkeys to help you rip through your art, video, audio or productivity-focused tasks
- ▶ A large, bright high-definition screen showing you each key's function at all times
- ▶ Best-in-class programmable large scroll wheel for scrubbing through video, audio and design work, or for changing system settings like volume & brightness levels
- ▶ Our fast and powerful programming app that lets you change the functionality of any key in seconds, or select from a catalog of pre-built automations for 100s of applications that you can import or build upon.
- ▶ Comes with our favorite silent tactile switches (hot-swappable, of course), custom designed keycaps, 2 dedicated layer-switch buttons and full wireless + USB-C connectivity
The BuildBox macropad is nearly here, get signed up to learn when we launch & receive slightly-insane launch prices.

Build.Log 2: Why Build A Macropad?
The most common question I get after explaining the BuildBox concept is 'why did you decide to build that?' — here's my once-and-for-all answer.
Build.Log 1: WTF is a Macropad?
Welcome to the very first InputZen Build.Log — meet the founder, the first product (the BuildBox macropad), and why we're building keyboards for builders.
Follow InputZen on YouTube
Over on our YouTube channel we nerd out on techniques to complete creative work faster. Sometimes with hardware optimizations, sometimes with software tweaks, and a lot of the time with mental shifts. We created these video resource pages to dive a bit deeper into each videos subject, offer full written transcripts if you prefer to read content over watching it, and provide extra resources and info for each video that we post on the channel
Hi, I'm Lewis Q.
For a decade plus I've been building digital things. Websites, businesses, articles, code, videos, even some animations.
It became very clear that keyboards are a key tool (pardon the pun) for digital builders like me.
If I'm cutting down a large tree, I'm bringing a strong and dangerously-sharp axe. The right tools often determine the flow, the quality and the amount of output we produce from our work. So I went searching for the best keyboard to build digital works.
And that gets us here: publicly building keyboards that help you build more in your life and career, improve the things you're currently building, and offer a power-up in your fight against the procrastination and resistance demons.
If you want to build something great follow our public building process through the InputZen Build.Log or our YouTube Videos. Very soon our store will be live, & delicious discounts.
