It usually starts with one sticky note on the edge of the monitor. A phone number. A password reminder you probably shouldn't have written down. A to-do item. A week later there are eleven of them, a few have curled up and fallen behind the desk, and the one you actually need is buried under the rest.
Sticky notes are fast, which is why everyone uses them. They just don't scale.
A better spot for quick notes
The DeskBoard Buddy is a glass dry erase board built into a desk organizer. It sits between your keyboard and monitor, or beside a laptop, right where your eyes already go.
The tempered glass surface holds about 10 times more writing than a sticky note, and it wipes clean in seconds. So your running to-do list, today's call times, and that number you need to call back all live in one place, and nothing ends up on the floor.
More than a whiteboard
- Hidden storage compartment: A large drawer keeps pens, markers, cables, and small essentials out of sight.
- Built-in phone and tablet stand: Your device sits upright where you can see it, not face-down under a stack of papers.
- Room for cables underneath: The raised profile lets cords run beneath it for a tidier desk.
- Scratch-resistant glass: Built for everyday writing and erasing.
- Ready to go: Includes a 2-pack of markers.
It measures 16" × 7" × 2", so it fits on most desks without taking over.
Optional upgrades
The DeskBoard Buddy is also available with a built-in calculator, handy for anyone who works with numbers all day, or a wireless charger, so your phone charges while it sits on the stand.
Keeping it looking new
- Fine-Tip Dry Erase Markers (12-Pack): Assorted colors for color-coding, with a mini eraser on each marker. They work on both the white and black DeskBoard Buddy.
- Glass Whiteboard Cleaning Kit: An ammonia-free cleaner and microfiber cloth that clear away ghosting and smudges.
