Now in Beta Prototyping

The analog clock,
digitally perfected.

Meet the Add-Clock. A fully digital chess clock that looks and feels exactly like a classic analog timepiece, but with microsecond precision and increment capabilities.

Analog Soul. Digital Brain.

We've combined the satisfying mechanics of a traditional chess clock with the precision and features required for modern tournament play.

Microsecond Precision

Perfect for intense blitz and bullet games. Our custom timing module guarantees absolute fairness.

Modern Increments

The world's first 'analog' clock that supports Fischer increments and delay modes.

200 Hour Playtime

Outlasts most analog spring winds. Focus on your game, not your battery level.

100 Day Shelf Life

Smart sleep modes detect user inactivity, preserving battery for months of casual use.

The Road to Launch

We believe in building in public. Here's exactly where we are and what's next.

Phase 1 Completed

Alpha Breadboard

Finished our initial breadboard prototyping to finalize features & software for base mechanics. We proved the core concept works beautifully.

Current

Refinement & Custom PCB

Moving towards smaller motors that are super quiet and deliver increased battery life. Designing the full enclosure and fabricating our first custom PCB.

Beta Prototype

An almost final custom PCB with a super compact enclosure. All features on board including integrated charging, battery management, and power modes.
