FAQs
Have questions? We have answers to help you navigate our services and processes.
We offer focused, engineering-driven support for brands that already have a product or are mid-development. This includes product redesigns, cost-reduction engineering, prototyping improvements, manufacturability audits, sourcing help, and scaling production. We don’t offer graphic design-only or marketing-focused services unless they’re tied to a product we helped build.
Yes. We specialize in cost-optimization by redesigning components, materials, and assemblies to reduce manufacturing costs. This is ideal for brands looking to improve margin without sacrificing quality or performance.
Absolutely. Whether you’re dealing with usability issues, quality concerns, or underwhelming sales, we can help improve the form and function of your product. We focus on design improvements that support better manufacturing, performance, and end-user experience—not just cosmetic changes.
Yes. If you’ve already begun development or have a basic prototype, we can help refine it, resolve design flaws, and get it ready for production. We often step in when a version 1 isn’t working or needs to be more scalable.
Yes. We help with factory sourcing, supplier vetting, and production setup—especially if your current manufacturer isn’t meeting expectations. We also support transitions to new suppliers and help troubleshoot production issues tied to design or process.
Yes. If you’re facing quality issues, delays, or communication breakdowns, we can diagnose whether the root cause is the design, tooling, or supplier. Then we help solve the problem—either by redesigning the product or shifting to a new manufacturer.
That’s no problem. You can bring us in just for redesign, prototyping, or sourcing. We’re modular by design and can integrate with your team wherever support is most needed.
No. We focus strictly on physical product development and engineering. We do not provide packaging design, listing optimization, copywriting, or other marketing services unless it’s part of a full end-to-end project.
Yes. We help brands transition from small-batch production to larger volume manufacturing. This includes identifying higher-capacity suppliers, refining design for scale, and supporting tooling upgrades.
Yes. We often collaborate with in-house teams or third-party partners who need additional engineering or sourcing expertise. Whether you’re a solo founder or part of a larger operation, we can plug in wherever you need technical support.
Yes. We often rework or optimize existing designs to make them easier, cheaper, and more reliable to manufacture. DFM is a core part of our process, especially for clients preparing for their first large-scale production run.
We work on physical consumer products—especially in categories like lifestyle, novelty, drinkware, fitness, and functional accessories. If it’s a real-world product with parts, tolerances, and users—we’re a good fit.
Most engineering-focused projects take 4–8 weeks, depending on complexity. We’ll build a phased plan with specific goals, deliverables, and reviews so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes. We frequently take over from past vendors, manufacturers, or internal teams. Whether you need updates, improvements, or a total overhaul, we can jump in, assess the current state, and help you move forward.
Yes. We can reverse engineer an existing product to recreate accurate design files—whether for manufacturing, redesign, or cost optimization. This is especially helpful if you previously worked with a freelancer, factory, or agency that didn’t provide the original CAD or technical documentation. We’ll rebuild what you need so you can move forward with full control.
Yes. We offer product audits to evaluate build quality, cost structure, risk areas, and manufacturing efficiency. These can be done pre-launch or post-launch and are a fast way to identify where your product might be underperforming.
We don’t handle certification directly, but we can help design products to meet specific requirements and connect you with trusted partners for testing and certification if needed (e.g., FDA, FCC, CE, etc.).
Yes. We frequently take 3D-printed prototypes and redesign them for scalable production methods like injection molding, CNC machining, or die casting—ensuring the product works reliably and meets cost and durability targets.
Yes. If you’re seeing high return rates or poor reviews tied to product performance, we can assess the failure points, redesign to fix the issues, and support better outcomes in your next production run.
Yes. If your previous product development partner didn’t deliver or left things unfinished, we can step in, assess the current state, and help you get the product to the finish line.
If you’re building or improving a physical product and need engineering, prototyping, or sourcing support—without fluff—we’re a great fit.
