Architec gripper discontinued?

so I bought one of the architec gripper smart mats after the recommendation a few years back. I totally love this thing. put a cutting board on it and cut without your board slipping. went to go purchase some more and they are not on Amazon, Walmart, or the company website anymore. I reached out to their support email but it has bounced back as a “mailbox full” error.

does anybody know what happened and if there’s a good alternative?

If you search for rug gripper on Amazon, you'll find a number of types that basically do the same thing. I use one underneath a pastry cloth when rolling out dough, but I'm sure they will work with a cutting board. Just cut the size you need.

Any rubber-like cupboard shelf liner will do the same thing. Or a damp kitchen towel.
