Astrohaus

Astrohaus is an American technology company founded in 2014 by Adam Leeb and Patrick Paul. It designs and produces portable digital typewriters, word processors and computer keyboards, marketed as premium "distraction-free" writing devices.

Astrohaus was formed after a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2014 to launch the Hemingwrite, an electronic typewriter with an e-ink screen. Due to legal reasons, the product was renamed the Freewrite, and Astrohaus was formed.

Since its formation, Astrohaus has released several products under the Freewrite brand in different variations and colorways, including the Smart Typewriter, Alpha, and Traveler. In addition, the company produces official accessories, writing software, and optional cloud services. The Astrohaus website also sells third-party desk toys and writing tools.

Astrohaus products have received mixed reviews by technology publications. The metal construction of the Smart Typewriter, and the keyboard feel of their devices, are typically the subject of positive reviews. However, the relatively high price is often cited as a criticism, particularly in contrast to laptops and other writing devices, as is the plastic construction of the Alpha and Traveler which has been described as "cheap" by multiple reviewers.
