OpenAI introduced the Codex Micro keyboard, priced at $230 and created with Work Louder, while Apple accuses OpenAI of stealing hardware secrets in a lawsuit that OpenAI says has no merit; the company positions Codex Micro as part of a broader hardware and AI roadmap, with hints of a future screenless smart speaker and other devices.
Codex Micro is a $230 square macro pad made with Work Louder that offers customizable keys, a rotary dial, and a joystick to control Codex actions and display agent status, including push-to-talk and a reasoning setting. It’s aimed at power users and available while supplies last, signaling a broader shift of AI controls from screens to hardware (with a future consumer AI speaker also in the works).
OpenAI is launching its first branded hardware product, the Codex Micro, a $230 RGB-lit mini keyboard that lets users monitor up to six Codex threads with color-coded keys. The device, a limited-run collaboration with Work Louder, features six frosted top-row keys that indicate thread status (idle to thinking to complete, with amber for human input and red for errors) and can open the related Codex window with a tap. While primarily desktop-focused, it signals OpenAI’s broader hardware ambitions and is described as shipping shortly after purchase.
OpenAI is releasing Codex Micro, a limited-run $230 hardware pad developed with keyboard maker Work Louder for use with Codex. The device features a 13-key mechanical switch array, a joystick and a dial, status LEDs to monitor Codex threads, and programmable keys plus 32 Codex icon keycaps, all designed to help monitor and manage Codex agents. It’s separate from OpenAI’s main hardware effort with Jony Ive.
