Overview
Flipper Devices makes cybersecurity tools for pentesters and tech enthusiasts, most notably Flipper Zero, a portable multi-tool for exploring and interacting with access control systems and radio protocols. The device runs on a low-power STM32 MCU with a retro LCD and connects via USB or Bluetooth for control and customization. It can read, clone, and emulate low-frequency RFID proximity cards and is fully open-source, letting users modify and extend its capabilities. Revenue comes from direct sales of Flipper Zero and accessories such as silicone cases and screen protectors through their website. The company differentiates itself through an open-source hardware and software model, a versatile, all-in-one tool tailored for security testing and tinkering, and a design that blends modern functionality with a retro aesthetic. Its goal is to provide a capable, customizable tool for security professionals and hobbyists to study and interact with access control systems and radio protocols.
