Sometimes telling your loved one on Valentine's Day that 'they have your heart' isn't good enough. Why use words when you can give them your actual heart?

At Quirky, we actively engaged in community events, including hosting a memorable 'Night of Invention' at SXSW in Austin, Texas. This fun spot was created specifically for the event.

At Quirky, we embraced the concept of "Speed" as one of our key attributes, often using the example of the Empire State Building, which was built in just one year, to inspire our product design process.

This simple animation shows how you can become part of the Quirky community. Create your own ‘stick figure’ on our app and use it throughout your invention journey.

Never work with kids or animals, or so the saying goes. We had a pet category at Quirky and often had hilarious results trying to do photo shoots and videos with our four-legged friends.
