InkPoint.

Open firmware · Xteink X3 / X4

A reader that gets out of the way.

InkPoint is lightweight, open-source EPUB firmware built for constrained e-ink hardware. Fast page turns, honest typography, and nothing you didn't ask for.

Flashes over USB OTA & SD updates Latest release

Built for reading, not features.

01 — WHY
/01

Featherweight

Engineered for ~380 KB of RAM. Stability and fast refreshes come before everything else.

/02

Typography that breathes

Serif and sans faces, adjustable spacing, paragraph indents, and a clean page that respects the words.

/03

Three ways to update

Flash over USB from this page, drop a file on the SD card, or pull updates over Wi-Fi. Your choice.

/04

Reading, tracked

Streaks, finished books, and a flashcard deck for what you want to remember — opt in, never noisy.

/05

A Pomodoro on paper

A focus timer designed for e-ink: minute-resolution refreshes and a full-screen flash between phases.

/06

Open, all the way down

Community firmware. Read the source, file an issue, send a patch. No accounts, no telemetry.

One image, two readers.

The same firmware boots on both the X3 and the X4 — the panel is detected at startup, so there's a single image to flash and a single release to follow.

Ready when you are.

Connect your reader over USB-C and flash InkPoint straight from the browser — Chrome or Edge, no downloads.
