Startups Crushing It! — Edition #019
Bite-sized startup insights trusted by the industry leaders
Trevor here. Woohoo! Spring has arrived. So has this week’s cohort of awesome startups. Enjoy!
🇺🇸 The Spaghetti Detective: 3D printing monitoring and failure detection software. $28k/mo. (Founded 2018, Total Funding Amount: bootstrapped)
3D printers take a long time (hours to days, and sometimes even weeks) to print a part, and they fail quite often (5% failure rate or higher). The possibility of failure creates stress for millions of makers who own and operate their 3D printers.
”I started TSD as a side project and grew it to tens of thousands of monthly active users. As of 2021, users have printed over 5 million hours on the TSD platform” — Founder, Kenneth Jiang
