Spongex started with one question: why are we still scrubbing by hand?
It hit in the most random place. The shower.
Electric toothbrushes exist.
Electric shavers exist.
Electric everything exists…
But dishwashing? Still stuck in the 1950s.
I searched everywhere.
All I found were bathroom scrubbers pretending they belonged in the kitchen.
Nothing built for cookware.
Nothing built for glass.
Nothing built for real life.
So I built Spongex myself.
I shut down everything I was doing.
Went all-in.
Put nearly everything into one mission:
Erase dishwashing as a human chore. Forever.
