Keep your Mac awake. Keep Claude coding.

Close your MacBook and it falls asleep — and your AI agent stops mid-task. Tiny Claw is a little 3D-printed clip that holds the lid open just enough to keep your Mac awake, so Claude keeps vibecoding while you grab coffee. Also: an unmistakable flex that you're a vibecoder.

Questions

Frequently asked. Carefully answered.

Will it fit my MacBook? +

The clamp opening is 11.7 mm and fits ~10–12 mm edges. Tested on the MacBook Pro 14". Not sure? Measure your rear edge or send us your model.

Why keep the lid open? +

Shut your MacBook and it goes to sleep — pausing whatever your AI agent was working on. Tiny Claw holds the lid open just enough to keep your Mac awake, so Claude keeps vibecoding while you're away from the keyboard.

Is this serious or a joke? +

Yes. It's a flex first and a tool second — but it genuinely keeps your machine awake. Both things are true.

Does it damage my laptop? +

No. Tough, translucent PETG that clips on without force. No glue, no scratches.

Can I get another color? +

Pink as standard. Want another color? Add a note to your order — usually no problem.

Keep your Mac awake.
