Tier 3: Full Product Development
Turn your idea into a production-ready product. From concept to CAD, prototype, and mass production, we can handle it all.
Overview
Tier 3 is built for entrepreneurs, startups, and inventors who are starting from pure concept: An idea, sketch, or early mockup.
We handle everything from feasibility to CAD, prototyping, factory sourcing, and production planning, turning your idea into a manufacturable product.
Before diving into full design or factory work, we first validate feasibility and align on realistic expectations. This ensures your idea fits your budget, timeline, and target market without surprises later.

Process
Share your concept, sketch, or vision using our Tier 3 form.
We confirm viability, scope, and core requirements.
Our design team creates full 3D models, basic or advanced, ready for production review.
We identify capable manufacturers, collect quotes, and compare cost-quality trade-offs.
Prototypes are produced, tested, and refined through limited iterations.
The pre-production sample is finalized and approved.
We coordinate factory tooling to prepare for mass production.
Final factory is selected, and the project moves into full manufacturing.
Pricing Model
Flat Fee
$4,000 – $25,000+ depending on complexity. Covers design, sourcing, and project coordination. Charged once at project start.
Factory Costs
Tooling, molds, certifications, or factory-required design changes are billed separately by the factory. We manage and oversee them on your behalf.
Target Pricing
You provide a target and maximum acceptable unit cost at the beginning. We design and source within that range whenever possible, though final quotes may vary depending on materials and factory capability.
Ongoing Orders
For repeat or follow-up orders using the same factory setup, no flat fee applies.
A 3–5 % commission on the order value covers production coordination, communication, and quality oversight.
