Super Ultra Sharpie

The Ultra Sharpie was released a few months ago and quickly found its way into a lot of professional working sets. The performance was strong, the tech was reliable, and the app made it practical for real-world use.

The most common feedback was simple:

“I love it… I just wish it came in a smaller Sharpie.”

That’s exactly what Super Ultra Sharpie delivers.

What It Is

Super Ultra Sharpie is the same Ultra Sharpie system — same core features, same app, same workflow — rebuilt inside a body that matches a Super Sharpie, rather than a larger King Sharpie.

It looks and feels like the marker many performers already prefer to carry.

What It Does

Spectators write normally on the gimmicked paper, and you receive a clean, readable peek on your device through the Ultra Sharpie app. No clipboards required, and they can write against any surface. This is because there are two hidden infra-red cameras inside the marker. An almost invisible patter of microdots printed on the paper or billet tells the marker where it is on the paper and sends it to your phone.

This is designed as a practical professional tool for mentalism, prediction effects, and any routine where you want a reliable written peek without ever touching the paper.

Same System. Smaller Sharpie.

• Matches the size and feel of a Super Sharpie

• Uses the same Ultra Sharpie app - compatible with iPhone and Android

• Same functionality as the original Ultra Sharpie

• Designed for real performance conditions

Refill Paper

You can print your own refill paper at any print shop (as with the original system), but Super Ultra Sharpie also includes a starter supply so you can begin using it immediately. We also have pre-printed pads and billets for sale that work perfectly if you want to get some directly from us. But provided along with instructions, you'll receive a PDF of the microdot pattern that you can send to a print shop (best not to print at home because you need a high resolution) in any size you want - you can print a single sheet, an entire bound pad, or even print the pattern on the back of your business card. You'll also receive the link to purchase the best refill ink for the marker. So if you ever leave it uncapped and it dries out, there's no need to buy another, you can simply replace the ink at home.

FAQ

Are there any lighting requirements?

No, because it uses infra-red cameras, you can perform this in a dark room, perfect for bar or restaurant magic

Where do I get my peek?

You can peek the information on your phone screen. Smartwatch integration is in the works and will be available soon.

How far away can the spectator go?

In most conditions, the range is 60-90 feet. There is an indicator light in the app that lets you know if the sharpie is connected, so you'll have no doubt when performing.

How long does the battery last?

About 10 hours of use, or several weeks if you're not using it constantly. We recommend not going too long without recharging the battery to prolong its life, just like with any electronic device.

I bought the original Ultra Sharpie, but now I think that Super Ultra Sharpie would fit me a lot better. What should I do?
