The problem
They look the same.
They aren’t.
USB-C is the standard. But most USB-C cables still run on USB 2.0. Slow charging. Slower transfers. And no way to tell from the outside.
USB 2.0USB4
More wires.
More creativity.
Left: the cable most devices come with. Four wires. 480 Mbps. Right: the Creator Cable. Every wire connected. Up to 40 Gbps. More than eighty times faster.
Speed race
Your footage. Already there.
Watch a USB 2.0 cable race the Creator Cable. It starts when you scroll into view—and yes, we sped it up.
USB 2.0 cable, like the one often included in the box ~40 MB/s–
Creator Cable + fast NVMe SSD ~3,000 MB/s–
Real-world figures: USB 2.0 reaches about 40 MB/s; the Creator Cable with a fast NVMe SSD reaches about 3,000 MB/s. Your actual speed depends on your drive and port.

different.
Scroll to play the 3D film and take the Creator Cable apart, layer by layer.
Recording
ProRes. Straight
to your SSD.
Your iPhone shoots ProRes. But the cable in the box is too slow for it. With the Creator Cable, you record straight to an external SSD. Your camera can, too. No more fragile SD cards.
Edit straight
from the drive.
Finished shooting? Plug the same cable into your laptop and play ProRes from the external SSD in real time. No copying first. Just start.
Charging
100 watts.
For your laptop, too.
The average USB-C cable stops at 60 W. The Creator Cable delivers up to 100 W with Power Delivery. Phone, tablet, camera or MacBook Pro. Everything charges at full speed.
Video
8K at 60 Hz.
One 8K display or multiple 4K displays. Video, power and even touch. Through one cable.
Touchscreen?
That, too.
Felix designed the Creator Cable in 3D on a touchscreen connected with... the Creator Cable. The display gets power, video and touch data at the same time.
E-marker
A chip that
speaks for itself.
There’s an e-marker chip inside the connector. So your device knows instantly: USB4 Gen 3, 20 V, 5 A. Safe, reliable and always at the highest speed.
Tested.
Every light on.
Every light is a live connection. Lightning: a few. Apple’s USB-C cable: a few more. A “fast” USB-C cable: better. The Creator Cable: all of them.

Stronger
Strong enough to hang from. Literally.
Felix’s friend Berend asked why he’d brought a cable to the bouldering gym. “Just checking if it can save a life.” A few attempts—and a lot of laughing—later, the cable held.
Don’t try this at home. We did.
Silicone strap
Neat.
In a second.
Every Creator Cable comes with its own silicone strap. No hook-and-loop catching on your sweater. No ripping sound. It lasts longer, wipes clean and gets your cable ready in a second.
The story
By a creator.
For creators.
Felix Kruip is a designer and the maker behind the YouTube channel How to Creative, based in Breda. He was tired of a cable slowing down his work. So he made one himself. Alone. “We,” he says, “but really it’s just me.”
“Ironically, the cable helped bring itself to life. I use it for everything and always carry one with me.”Felix Kruip

Frequently asked questions
Good question.
Can 100 watts damage my battery?
No. The cable can deliver 100 W, but your device uses USB Power Delivery to request only what it needs. Your phone will never get more than it can handle.
Which charger should I use?
Any USB-C charger with Power Delivery works. For the full 100 W, use a charger rated for at least 100 W. The cable will never be the bottleneck.
What’s the difference between Gbps and GB/s?
One byte is eight bits. So 40 Gbps (gigabits per second) equals 5 GB/s (gigabytes per second). Files are usually measured in gigabytes, which is why we mention both.
Does it work with my iPhone?
Yes, with any iPhone that has USB-C. On an iPhone 15 Pro or later, you can record ProRes straight to an external SSD.
Does it work with Thunderbolt?
Yes. 40 Gbps USB4 cables also work with Thunderbolt 3 and 4 ports.
What about shipping and returns?
Shipping is free in the Netherlands and Belgium and usually takes 1–2 business days. You have 30 days to return it. (This is a demo. Nothing will be shipped.)
