About Us
What is Invis?
We are a smart wearables company focused on engineering non-intrusive technology implemented into high-quality leather watch straps. We use High-Density Interconnect flex-rigid PCBs to enhance the connectivity and utility of the classic wrist watch, without sacrificing aesthetic. We want our products to benefit two types of people: those that seek to better utilize the smart features of the connected world and those at the highest risk of being left behind by it.
Mission
Our mission is a frictionless wearables revolution. An Invisible revolution. At Invis our power comes from empathy and our drive comes from technology. Through our innovations, we continue to improve the benefit of the relationship between humans, wearables, and the connected world. In seeking greater utility for common wearables, our mission has evolved to find better ways to benefit the well-being of the people least equipped to navigate the connected world.
