Our Tab Buddy Story

Making Independence Cute, Simple, and Accessible

We’re a small family business based in Florida, creating fun, colorful tools that make everyday life easier. Every Tab Buddy is designed, 3D-printed, and packaged by hand in our family workshop — not dropshipped, not mass-produced.

Born from a Simple Idea

Tab Buddies began with one small frustration: opening cans shouldn’t be hard. We set out to create a better way — something that helps people with long nails, arthritis, hand pain, or other health struggles to open tabs effortlessly while still being cute, fun, and full of personality.

Our Mission

To make accessibility approachable and joyful. We believe that assistive tools don’t have to look clinical — they can be fun, expressive, and empowering. Whether it’s a spooky Halloween design or a Zodiac edition, each Tab Buddy is made to bring a little delight to your day.

Made by Us, for You

Everything you see in our shop — from designing to printing to packing — happens right here in our workshop. We’re proud to say we’ve helped thousands of people gain more independence, one small tab at a time.
