## About

Board is a US-based consumer technology company founded in 2022 and headquartered in New York, US. Founder: Brynn Putnam, the founder and CEO of Board and previously the founder of Mirror, which was acquired by lululemon. The company develops a face-to-face tabletop gaming console that blends the tactile feel of traditional board games with the interactivity of video games, using physical game pieces and digital gameplay to create shared entertainment for families, children aged 6+, casual players, and experienced gamers. Its core product is a 24-inch tabletop game console powered by proprietary PieceSense technology, which recognizes physical game pieces and adds responsive interactions to gameplay. Launched in 2026, Board includes a library of games for different skill levels and ships with seven exclusive games, including "Chop Chop," "Snek," "Space Rocks," and "Starfire," with additional games available for individual purchase. The console is sold in North America, Europe, and Asia as a family-friendly entertainment option designed to support social interaction and shared experiences. Board’s revenue model is built around direct sales of the console and its associated games, with each purchase including seven exclusive games and custom piece sets, and additional titles priced from free to USD 34.95. The company uses a direct-to-consumer model through its online platform, giving customers immediate access to new content and experiences while supporting ongoing engagement and satisfaction. Board has completed a Seed round that raised USD 15 mn, led by Lerer Hippeau Ventures, and has closed a total of 2 deals to date. The recently raised USD 15 mn will be used to advance product development, launch additional games planned for 2027, and increase brand awareness and market penetration in Asia and Europe.
