Based in Portland, OR, Gerp was born from a simple concept to create a better way to use the gadgets in our daily lives. Gerp develops and distributes life-hack tools and platforms for the enhanced consumption and production of digital media — most specifically to aid in the use of mounting and holding iPads, phones and tablets, but with a variety of other valuable life hack uses. So, what’s a Gerp? Simply put, Gerp gets a grip on your gadgets. It's an ergonomic grip and versatile stand for tablets, mobile devices & more. What sets the Gerp apart from all the other grips is its ergonomic and universal design that features a pistol-style grip (which reduce stress and fatigue on your hands and wrists by working a larger muscle group), and a secure-suction mount, which attaches to any tablet, large-screen phone or any other item that has a smooth, flat, non-porous surface.
