We set aside 10 % of the profit from every sale. Once a quarter we pick an open source project that is not ours and donate the whole amount we have collected.
What is left over pays for servers, further development and building OpenVuture itself. We intend to raise the donated share as soon as our own infrastructure reliably carries it.
For goods made outside our own workshop we only ever have a few pieces produced at a time. Nothing sits around in a warehouse and no waste is created — in return, delivery can occasionally take a little longer.

WhyOpenVuture

10% of the profit from every sale goes straight into the FOSS community: once a quarter we pick an open source project and donate the amount we have collected to it. The rest of the profit goes into server costs, further development and building OpenVuture itself.

A purchase here brings two things together: you get something you actually want – and at the same time you support free software, at no extra cost to you. We intend to raise the share we donate. For that, our own infrastructure first has to carry us far enough that we can promise it reliably. Thank you for walking this path with us.

It’s important to us that we only work with companies we personally trust. Every product in our shop was made by us or thoroughly tested – we stand behind what we offer. We hope our products bring you as much joy as it brings us to design and build them.

We restock our range regularly with a variety of products. It’s important to us to only ever produce a small quantity. That’s the only way we can avoid unnecessary overproduction. For all goods we don’t produce ourselves, delivery times may therefore be a little longer. But this avoids unnecessary waste, and in our view that justifies a small delay in delivery time. So check back regularly, or subscribe to our newsletter to be notified about new products.
