ABOUT INVENTABLES

Inventables is changing the way people design and produce consumer products. Our technology is giving rise to a long tail of desktop manufacturing companies: boutique shops whose creative designs are grabbing our attention - shifting the dynamics of how we buy our furniture, decorate our homes, or choose our eyeglasses. 

We're enabling this by building the best platform. We make both the software designers use, and the machines that turn their objects into real objects, and this control over the whole stack allows us to craft the best experience for our customers. 

We’re leading the way in revolutionizing the way people make things. We have an incredible story to share with the educators who are on the leading edge of incorporating technology in the classroom, as well as the impassioned maker community.
