Great question — and we truly respect what The Handy team has built over the years. They've set a high bar in the space.
While Melody is our first stroker, it’s built by a team with a strong background in hardware, firmware, and interactive experiences — including powering platforms used by thousands daily.
What sets Melody apart is our focus on real-world performance:
Precision mechanics – a custom-engineered belt system ensures ultra-smooth movement with extremely low noise and high reliability, even under stress
Content-first integration – no key activation, no barriers — just connect and sync with your favorite content instantly
Long-term vision – we’re building for openness, community-driven improvements, and frequent updates
And of course, things like hands-free options and sleeve compatibility are a given — we won’t spend much time hyping what should be standard 🖤
