WhitePad - iPhone-sized whiteboard - our first physical product

My fiancee came up with this idea looking at me and my co-founders sketching app UI's on a whiteboard. Now she needs to raise $6k usd to take it from a prototype to a real product. I'm using one and loving it!

In plain words

WhitePad is a portable whiteboard roughly the size of an iPhone, designed for quick sketching and note-taking on the go. It was created after the maker's fiancée observed app designers sketching UI mockups on whiteboards and recognized the need for a more compact version. The product exists as a working prototype and seeks $6,000 in funding to move toward full production. It appeals to designers, developers, and anyone who regularly sketches ideas or takes notes by hand.
