Autoprint Inc. Revolutionary 3D Printing Technology

Co-founded a startup developing the "Autoprint One" - a universal rapid 3D printing device. Led product development and filed provisional patent for innovative printing technology.

The Vision: The Autoprint One was designed to make 3D printing accessible to everyone. Compatible with the majority of existing 3D printers, it promised to eliminate setup complexity and get users printing in seconds. Our goal was to break down the barriers that kept people from experiencing the magic of 3D printing.

Campaign Outcome

Despite raising over $11,000 and gaining 125 supporters, the campaign ultimately fell short of its $30,000 funding goal. Without sufficient capital to move into production, we made the difficult decision to close Autoprint Inc. This experience provided valuable insights into startup challenges, market validation, and the realities of hardware development.
