Company Summary

We aim to put ‘CUSTOM’ back into ‘CUSTOMER’ by enabling the once passive consumer to engage in the fundamental act of creation. We give consumers more than just the usual, passive pick-and-buy-a-product transaction. With just a few simple clicks, we offer the user a simple yet fun interactive experience allowing them to make a highly meaningful personalized product which they can buy, share or sell to their social networks.
