The Kaedim 3D Marketplace features 10K+ high-quality 3D assets ready to purchase and download. The highlight feature is that you can turn any image into 3D on the spot if you can't find what you're looking for. Guaranteed: ✅ quad topo ✅ low poly ✅ watertight
Hi everyone! Good to be back - the team and I are excited to launch a new product from Kaedim! 🎉
Here is a bit of the story and insights that led the team to work on our AI-powered 3D Model Marketplace ⏬
Talking to game devs on a daily basis, we started noticing that there is an initial period before/during pre-production that teams might turn to online 3D Marketplaces for purchasing and downloading assets and asset packs to populate early prototypes and demos.
However, we also kept hearing repeating complaints about all the existing 3D marketplaces. You buy something online only to realise when you import to your 3D modelling software that it has:
❌ Bad topology
❌ Broken meshes
… and needs cleanup in general 🫠
Although it might be the most cost-efficient route for indie game devs to get a prototype working ASAP, most teams will not use these marketplace-bought models on the final game and gradually replace them with true-to-their-style in-house-made models for consistent style, performance optimisation, and more. In a nutshell, money spent on a model you need to pour more money into (clean up) to then replace and forget.
So here is why we are launching a 3D Model Marketplace:
🥇 Our core technology is in 2D to 3D generation and can add great value once you pin down your style. However, that sometimes comes later in the product roadmap, and we want to be close to teams from day 1, helping you create with accessible, reliable tools.
🥈 We want to help you elevate your prototyping stage. If you can’t find what you’re looking for in the marketplace BUT have made a sketch / generated a concept you like with MJ or DALLE, you can use our 3D Marketplace to generate the 3D model ON THE SPOT. Going the extra mile to give you what you imagine, EVEN for the prototype phase.
🥉 We are all about satisfying topology and clean meshes. So we are here to guarantee you can have peace of mind that the models you’re buying are ALWAYS clean and ready to use. PERIOD.
You can expect:
✅ Quad topology ONLY
✅ Low poly for easy editing
✅ Separate meshes for easy texturing
✅ Watertight
Here is HOW IT WORKS:
🔍 You can search with keywords and/or by selecting a category (we are adding a styles filter too as we speak)
✨ Based on your search, we’ll load a selection of the 3D models that match your search AND we will also generate 2D images based on your prompt ON THE FLY (we use DALLE).
🙌 Now, you just have to choose something you like. It’ll either already have a 3D model for you to purchase and download OR if it’s just the 2D concept that we’ve generated you can go ahead and TURN INTO 3D with Kaedim, then and there.
🎨 Finally, all purchased and generated 3D models are gonna be added to your Kaedim library at https://app.kaedim3d.com where you can use our automatic tools for: editing, UV unwrapping, colouring, texturing and more!
Let’s make cool demos together! 👾
P.S. Our legendary Content Lead, Cherise, and I are doing a live stream later today at 10:30AM PT time and we are gonna be building a 3D scene with Marketplace assets as well as generating others on the spot with Kaedim. Come give us ideas about what to generate woop woop 🙌
Wow. This is so impressive. One of the few launches where I've immediately gone to the website to check it out! And I love the fact that they're compatible with 3D printing.
Congratulations on the launch!
After first seeing a demo of Kaedim a year ago, it's incredible to see how far this team has gotten. Congratz on the launch and the raise! Onwards!
Hey everyone, thrilled to be part of the conversation here! 🌟 As someone working closely with the Kaedim team, I've had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the dedication and innovation that's gone into creating our AI-powered 3D Model Marketplace. It's truly exciting to see our product come to life and address the very real challenges that game developers face during the early stages of game development.
We're all too familiar with the frustrations our game dev friends express when dealing with 3D assets from existing marketplaces - the subpar topology, broken meshes, and the unexpected cleanup work required, turning what should be a straightforward process into a time-consuming and costly ordeal. It's precisely these pain points that motivated us to launch our marketplace, providing a solution that not only meets but exceeds the quality standards of the industry.
Our core technology's ability to generate 3D models from 2D images is a game-changer, especially when you're still in the process of nailing down your game's unique style. Our marketplace is designed to support you from the very start, offering tools that make the creation process as seamless and efficient as possible.
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to quality. With Kaedim, you're guaranteed models with satisfying topology, clean meshes, and all the attributes needed for smooth integration into your projects.
Our platform's functionality, from the keyword and category search to the on-the-fly generation of 2D images and their conversion to 3D models, is tailored to empower creativity and streamline your workflow.
Our upcoming livestream with Cherise is a perfect opportunity to see our marketplace in action and get inspired about the possibilities of creating with Kaedim.
Looking forward to seeing you at the livestream 👾🚀
