The router bit we use for FRENCHFINITY is called "ENT 17735 T-Nutfräser M5" in Germany. You can buy it from here: https://amzn.to/3BAabY4. We could also send you the bit when you are not able to purchase it from your country. For this, we would only charge the purchase price + shipping (non-profit). The details are shown on the picture below. Please send us a link to any non-German shop if you know one, since this one of the most asked questions so far.
Our french cleats have roughly the following dimensions: width: 20mm, height: 55mm, angle: 45°. We recommend your cleats to be at least 20mm in width since it will be backwards compatible to smaller cleats. The other way round is not possible.
