Founder

Kelvin Wu

Founded blankup in 2026 · Based in Berkeley, CA

Kelvin started blankup because ordering merch kept feeling harder than it needed to be. Teams wanted heavyweight blanks that feel like retail, clear decoration advice, and a real number before anything went into production. He built the company around those three things, and still treats every quote like it came from someone he knows.

That shows up in the work: Y Combinator batch kits one week, a school Culture Show run the next. The common thread is a real person on the email from the first quote through delivery, not a ticket queue. You can see that standard across the portfolio.
