Zazzy empowers anyone to create and sell 3D printed jewelry / merchandise in under 5 minutes. We offer a complete, end-to-end production platform that provides all the necessary software, design tools (with automated model generation and instant photorealistic preview) and distribution.
Our goal is to give everyone access to 3D printing in an enjoyable and user-friendly way and with a consistently high-quality product as the end result. We believe that by shaping the best user experience possible, design and production can be truly democratized.
The recent buzz around 3D printing has led to many issues and misunderstandings surrounding user experience and quality. Many people without specific 3D modeling skills have found themselves unable to engage with this exciting new technology, others have invested in domestic 3D printers, only to be left disappointed with the usability of the machine and the overall quality of the end product.
