Levity™ — The Smarter Sponge 🧠

Written by

The self-soaping, magnetic sponge that hides your sink shame, cuts plastic waste, and saves you money every month.
Check on Kickstarter

“Every now and then, a design comes along that radically changes the way we think about a particular object.”
Declutters your counter: no bottles, no caddies, no chaos. Looks intentional, not like a kitchen accident.
This isn’t our first rodeo. We’ve launched 7 campaigns backed by over 44,000 people and now we’re selling nationwide in stores. See some of the reviews from our last campaigns!

Magnetically hovers to dry faster — and smell less.

Levity is a no-brainer, eco-friendly upgrade that pays for itself.

🦠 Less Stink: Magnetic airflow keeps it dry, fresh, and practically stink-less.

🧼 Self-Soaping: Pocket for solid refills that use 38% less soap than liquid.

🧲 No Clutter: Snaps inside your sink, not on your counter.

♻️ Goodbye Plastic: No more liquid soap bottles.🧴

💰 Saves Money: Microfiber lasts 4.5× longer than regular sponges.

Solid soap lasts longer & skips the landfills
If we even could count the times we’ve over-soaped and let it wash off…

Declutters your counter – no bottles, no chaos. Just a clean, intentional kitchen.

Your sponge shedding big pieces is gross — but the tiny microplastic ones you can’t see end up in your food too. That’s store-bought polyurethane sponges for you. Levity’s tightly-woven microfiber is engineered not to shed.
Levity releases just enough suds—no more pouring money down the drain.
Levity hover-dries fast; regular sponges sit soggy and grow funk.
Levity stays strong and scrubby long after others fall apart.
Fewer sponges, fewer bottles, more money left in your pocket.
Declutters and keeps your sink area spotless
Floats to dry fast, stay fresh, and germ-free
Uses less soap & lasts 4.5x longer
Soft side fot the easy, scrub side for the grime
Always the right amount of soap
Optionally the top rack when it needs a reset

Works with any standard stainless or composite sink

Shipping prices are estimated below. We will charge shipping after the campaign ends so we can charge the most accurate prices possible based on whatever our 3PL at the time charges. This could be lower or higher than below, but you can consider these what we expect to charge.

You know that smell when your sponge’s gone too far? That was my breaking point. I couldn’t un-see it, and I couldn’t un-smell it.

We started by hand — cutting, sewing, and testing materials one by one. From plush microfiber for gentle cleaning to stainless-steel mesh for tough scrubbing, we explored every texture, thickness, and shape. The kitchen counter became our workshop: stacks of fabric, bars of soap in experimental molds, and dozens of colorful prototypes.

As we refined the sponge, the idea of a floating design took hold. We 3D-printed bases, tested different attachment systems, and slowly honed in on the magic of magnets. The first versions were clunky — but once we found the perfect balance, Levity truly came to life.

But the sponge itself wasn’t the only issue. I was tired of constantly tossing plastic soap bottles. On top of that, how many times have you put liquid dish soap on a sponge only to have half of it just wash off when you wet the sponge? It’s doubly wasteful! So we added a soap pocket to eliminate the need for plastic bottles in our house and get just the right amount of soap each time it was used.

Once we discovered the perfect magnetic balance, everything clicked — Levity literally started to float.

From there, every detail was perfected: reinforced stitching, double padding for structure and soap efficiency, and a modern color palette that felt right at home in any kitchen.

After countless tests, tweaks, and kitchen trials, that first ugly problem turned into something surprisingly beautiful — a sponge that stays fresh, dries fast, and gives you just enough soap to make doing the dishes just a little more satisfying.
