This website is pretty badly designed. The home page should be selling me on what phones this works with, and why I should trust these people to pull it off when a bunch of other projects have come and gone that failed to do the same thing.
And while the site is badly designed, it does not have to explain why you should "trust these people". They should tell you what the product is, and for you to decide whether you like this product enough to buy it. Unless you suspect they'll run with your money (this isn't a kickstarter) or that the product claims are untruthful, trust is irrelevant.
The reason companies in this space fail is just because too few people have been interested in this class of product. Maybe one day, when smartphones are more powerful and these products are convenient enough.
Agreed that the website is mid but I don't get the part where you say:
> when a bunch of other projects have come and gone that failed to do the same thing
This has been "pulled off" successfully for a long time now. Nexdock themselves have been around and shipping different "convergence" products since at least 2016.
> The home page should be selling me on what phones this works with
Anything that can be connected to an external display, keyboard, and mouse.

My NexDock has served me well for 7 years. Even if the company flopped tomorrow, it would continue to serve me for years. I don't see the risk here even if you don't trust the company to continue to thrive.
It's reasonable as far as membrane laptop keyboards go imo. It feels solid (along with the rest of the build quality), and has a pretty good travel distance.
