Vestaboard

Vestaboard is a San Francisco Bay Area consumer electronics company that makes a smart split-flap messaging display reimagined from the mechanical signs once used in European train stations. The product uses 132 or more spinning bits to render letters, numbers, colors, and patterns, and is controlled remotely through iOS, Android, and web apps, allowing users to send messages, schedule content, or pull in automated feeds through the Vestaboard+ subscription service that connects to hundreds of integrations such as Spotify, calendars, Slack, and Zapier. The company sells the flagship Vestaboard along with a smaller countertop display called Vestaboard Note, serving households, offices, restaurants, cafes, healthcare settings, design studios, schools, and retail boutiques that want a shared, screen-free focal point for connection and information. Vestaboard differentiates itself through its analog mechanical aesthetic, a Red Dot Award winning industrial design developed with Bould Design, and a customer base that has grown to more than 15,000 displays sold, including high-profile users such as Jennifer Garner. The company was named to the 2024 Inc. 5000 list with reported three-year growth of 1,147 percent.
