Straight talk: TiltForge isn't CSA-certified yet. Apple Home pairs with a one-tap “uncertified accessory” notice. Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings won't pair an uncertified Matter device at all, so today they reach TiltForge through Home Assistant — which needs either Home Assistant Cloud or a self-hosted bridge. Direct pairing on those three lands with certification, which is on the roadmap. Smart features also vary by tier: check the connectivity line on each card below.

The lineup
Founders Batch — First 100 Units

What's inside a complete unit
The entire bill of materials — standard, off-the-shelf hardware plus a handful of printed parts. Nothing proprietary, nothing you can't source or replace yourself. The dot columns show what ships in each tier, every part is priced right in the row (tap a part name for its SKU and details), and the repairability promise holds: a dead motor costs a $19 motor bag — not a new unit.

Kits are picked up top; the Extras column is for spare parts on the side. If your extras add up to something a kit does cheaper, we'll say so below — your cart is never changed for you.
The clutch is just fiber friction washers clamped in the drive stack by the M4 hardware — it transmits drive torque, slips on overload, and gives way to a hand on the cord. No gearbox to strip, no secrets.
Assembled units carry a 90-day limited warranty; kits and STLs ship as-is. Read the warranty & firmware policy.
The founders batch is 100 units, shipping in queue order — figure 5–10 business days to build and pack yours, then 2–5 in transit. Reserving costs nothing today and locks your founders pricing — plus the Studio STL pack ($20) free with your unit.
