Team

Zerocat is run by Kai Mertens, who is supported by friends and pioneer customers.

For questions or feedback, feel free to get in touch with any fellow as listed below.

If you need to see a tool come true, which does not yet exist as free-design hardware, we would love to hear about it.

Want to join the team? Get in touch, but please be aware that we expect you to be a reliable team member, carrying our Philosophy at heart.
