Amber, founder of Piq
Our story

I loved coffee. I just hated what it did to me.

I am Amber. I built Piq while studying law full time and working. Living through the kind of weeks where you sit an exam, finish a shift and chase a supplier, and somehow none of it gets the time it deserves.

Like most people, I love coffee. I just did not love what it did to me. Three or four cups a day through exam season, wired then flat, anxious, never quite functioning. I did not need less caffeine. I needed caffeine that actually worked.

So I painstakingly tested solutions and running trials on myself until the product was just right. Piq helps make my coffee the version of my morning cup I always wished existed. 2mL of Piq and the caffeine finally works the way it should. Calm focus, no crash, the same ritual you already love.

What keeps me going is the people who use it. Someone messages me to say they finally feel good on their morning coffee, and that gets me out of bed more than anything. My goal is to make the energy ritual feel the way it should.
