About
Codex Micro is a square macro pad made by OpenAI in collaboration with keyboard maker Work Louder. It is OpenAI's first hardware product and is designed to be used with its coding platform, Codex. OpenAI describes it as a limited-run collaboration. It is separate from the device OpenAI is reportedly developing with Jony Ive.
The pad closely resembles Work Louder's Creator Micro 2, with 13 mechanical switches, a joystick, a dial and a touch sensor. Six frosted keys give a live view of Codex threads, using colors to show whether a task is complete, needs feedback, is running or has hit an error. Other keys can be assigned to actions such as push-to-talk, accept or reject changes, and send. The joystick starts common workflows and the dial adjusts reasoning level. It ships with 32 additional keycaps with Codex icons, and all controls are configured from the ChatGPT desktop app.
It costs $230 and is sold through Supply Co while supplies last. OpenAI did not state how many units are available. The sources provided do not give a ship date or details on shipping regions.
