World’s 1st force-pad | Extensive customisation | Paired with 5-pin hotswappable keyboard
We are sick of the limiting traditional keyboard layout for gaming.
For so many games you have to manage both movement AND ability keys.
And we’ve been stuck with this layout for over 30 years!
There has been simply little change and no innovation.
So we decided to BE that change.
Today, we proudly present to you our simple but efficient solution.
The WRAEK Tactonic Pro! The world’s 1st palm-controlled keyboard set. But to introduce this innovation we first need to explain our in-house designed product, the WRAEK Tactonic Pad – a force sensitive palm pad that acts like a thumbstick. (Not a trackpad!)
Our Tactonic Pad uses ultra-sensitive pressure sensors that can detect as little as 10g of force. It uses isometric force technology found in joysticks of combat fighter jets but in a miniaturized version. If you are looking for greater control in your gaming, this device is for you.
Though the Tactonic Pad may look like the touchpad on a laptop, it works very differently. Unlike a touchpad which requires you to slide your finger across the pad, the Tactonic Pad doesn’t need any sliding or dragging. Your hand can stay perfectly still in one spot, while the skin of your palm acts like a joystick instead.
Easily switch between game and work profiles with the click of a button at the side of the Tactonic Pad. It’s simple, convenient and intuitive! We’ve even included 5 pre-set profiles which includes keyboard, joystick and mouse emulation modes if you want to instantly plug and play!
Now what gaming device would dare call itself such without customizable RGB colors! The vibrant 16.8 million color RGB lights at the 4 corners would be a great addition to any PC setup. We also have several color change modes that you can program such as: 7 color change, breathing color change or force-light intensification.
Our Tactonic Pad is ergonomically designed for maximal comfort and intuitive usage. The elevated angle helps to reduce muscle strain and the mirror polish surface allows an optimal grip for your palm. After extensive testing we’ve ensured that our WRAEK Tactonic Pad is as ergonomic as any keyboard wrist rest out there!
The Tactonic Pad is tailored to fit any tenkeyless keyboard out there. It also has magnets along the edges so it can magnetically attach to any keyboard with a metal build!
There are limitless ways you can use the Tactonic Pad but here are some of the most relevant cases!
Fingers are freed up from WASD to be on standby where needed.
Instead of binding skills to the number row or other hard-to-reach areas, remap skills right under your fingertips!
Use the Tactonic Pad to pan the camera instead of moving your mouse all the way to the corners.
The WRAEK Tactonic Pad is a versatile and non-invasive device. While not gaming, you can even use it for work and boost productivity. Use it for scrolling, activating hotkeys, controlling 3D model angles and more!
Of course, many of you are wondering what about the amazing looking keyboard that we showed together with the Tactonic Pad? Well, introducing our WRAEK Tactonic Keyboard which is a fully customisable, tenkeyless mechanical keyboard made to be perfectly compatible with our Tactonic Pad to create the winning setup.
When we designed a keyboard to fit with our Tactonic Pad, we didn’t want any old keyboard. As keyboardists ourselves we wanted only the very best! One thing led to another and we’ve completed decked it out with over 11 awesome features! It also has full N-key rollover, 100% anti-ghosting and 0 delay with Real Time One (RTO) analog technology.
With the WRAEK Tactonic Keyboard, you can type smoother and with more comfort!
Fully customise it the way you want with the 5-pin hot swappable PCB, with the choice of either brown,red and blue gateron switches.
Level up your gaming setup aesthetic with an assortment of cool RGB lighting effects or jam to your favourite beats with the music-sensing function!

“The PC gaming industry has seen little to no change for 30 years, can we change that?”
That was the statement that started our journey at WRAEK.
After having talked to hundreds of gamers and hearing the same problem over and over again, we knew we had to solve it. We had to solve the problem of the limiting keyboard layout.
The solution? To create a force sensitive palm pad attached to a keyboard! But for this idea to truly take off, we needed foundational support.
Thankfully, we were accepted into entrepreneurship accelerator programs by SCAPE, NUS Enterprise and ACE. Through these programs we also formed a relationship with our current advisor Renny Yeo and raised $300,000 together to help the R&D and manufacturing of this project kick off.
We developed countless iterations of prototypes, taking into consideration technical feasibility and human factors like ergonomics and aesthetics.
Thank you to our multiple esports, entrepreneurship and hardware partners for driving the success of our crowdfunding campaign.
