Our story
It started with a handful of rocks.
Our founder kept losing track of sets and rounds in CrossFit-style workouts. Somewhere in the middle of a hard session, the count would just go.
A phone meant unlocking a screen mid-workout. A whiteboard meant finding chalk and remembering to use it. So the fix became a handful of small rocks: one stone moved from one pile to the other after every completed set.
It worked, and it was strangely satisfying. The count stopped being something to remember and became something you could see and touch. Finishing a set came with a small, physical full stop.
Rig & Rivet is the effort to make the premium version of that habit: counters that are mechanical, deliberate and built to live in a gym. No screens, batteries or apps. One motion per set.
Where we are
Three concepts, shared before they’re built.
The Athlete Abacus, The Dial and The Wrist Counter are concepts. The images are renderings, not photographs of finished products. Materials, mechanisms and dimensions are still to be engineered.
We’re showing them now, with expected prices, to learn which one people actually want before investing in prototypes and tooling. If you join the launch list, you’re helping decide what gets made first.
- No preorders, deposits or payments until there is a real product.
- No invented reviews, specs, scarcity or release dates.
- Honest updates when something real changes, and only then.
