WE BELIEVE TECH COMPANIES DIDN'T FULFILL THEIR PROMISE "TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE"

IN FACT...

TECH COMPANIES keep creating technology that is CONFUSING, UNNECESSARY and even HARMFUL to human beings.

Kickstarter Launch

In January 2017, my wife and I decided to take our relationship to the next level. We realized that, like many other couples around the world, we were very distracted, so it was difficult for us to connect with each other. To try to help fix this issue, I suggested a #PhoneFreeBedroomChallenge. No phones, no distractions. Soon after, we discovered the benefits this simple change in behavior could bring to people, especially couples like us, so we decided to launch Bagby on Kickstarter. Truth be told, we haven’t brought our phones back in the bedroom since.

We raised $12K and make this story a reality.

Digital Wellness With a Human Soul

Although Bagby was first designed to primarily help couples ("Reconnect with your Partner"), we realized that the potential to help other people like us and businesses was relevant, too. This is the reason why we took all the feedback we received, updated our branding and widened the Bagby universe to make it "Digital Wellness With a Human Soul".

At Bagby, our MISSION is to decrease people's screen time while increasing their HUMAN time.

Digital Detox Heroes Community

At the beginning of 2021 we spotted a trend on Instagram that was pretty interesting. A handful number of people started posting about their digital detox experience on Instagram. It was kind of paradoxical but we loved it!
We launched "Digital Detox Heroes", a COMMUNITY of forward-thinking people across a variety of fields including content creators, musicians, artists, activists, nutritionists, photographers, farmers, coaches, event planners, etc who want to switch the current Instagram narrative from the feeling that " I have to broadcast my life 24/7" to "I chose to enjoy the moment and what the offline world has to offer".

#TechSatire is born

In order to make our content more fun and engaging, we created Tech Satire ( #TechSatire), a parody created by @Bagbybrand of the everyday use of technology in our modern society. To poke fun of people’s behaviors and technology in general, we’ve created a series of posts that are fun and easy-to-consume. These pieces of entertainment showcase realistic and socially acceptable situations, which, in reality, are often quite paradoxical. Perhaps, then, tech is not as simple and flawless as how it was sold to us.⁠ I hope you’ll laugh along with us and enjoy!

Harmful Digital Ingredients

Tech companies claim they will make the world a better place, however we are experiencing the highest levels of collateral damage in areas like mental health, sleep and stress. This is due to what we've identified as "Harmful Digital Ingredients": Blue Light, EMF, Ai, VR, FOMO, Big Data and IoT.

Are you losing faith on tech companies to make the world a better place? If you are feeling overwhelmed with all this crazy innovation (including Ai), we are here to help.

It's time to put humanity first. Look up!

Human-First

Since the launch of FIBIT (2007) and the explosion of social media, tech companies have created an unhealthy culture of tracking / comparing that has been copied and enhanced by every tech company.

Today, every product is designed to keep us hooked to our screens and distracted which downgrades our human condition and it's harmful for human beings.

We help human beings to reduce their screen time and focus on what's important so that we all can feel human again.

This is WHY our products are free from harmful digital ingredients like Blue-Light, EMF, Ai, VR, FOMO, Big Data, IoT, etc.

Sustainably-Made

We believe in the the healing power of nature. Being in nature increases dopamine and serotonin in our brains– chemicals that are associated with an improved sense of satisfaction and motivation. Nature reduces anger, stress, and aggression. It promotes a sense of community and it's a powerful antidepressant. Spending time in nature is the most powerful medicine.

Often, we are not depressed but just disconnected from our human DNA that thrives while in nature.

This is why our products use natural and recycled materials and we have removed 99% of plastic in our packaging.

Simple and Easy-To-Use

Every product today comes with confusing, unnecessary and overwhelming technology.

We believe in simplicity and in making products that serve one core purpose. Products shouldn't even have an instruction manual. For example, an alarm clock should only focus on waking us up in a better mood. That's it! No apps, No Wifi, no pairing with your phone.

This is why our products are handmade, simple and easy-to-use and bring us back to simpler times.
