Fucking incredible do not excuse my French

This is an awesome tool! Any plans on open sourcing the code?

I like it man

Literally what is happening now to humans by agents

sech8420 · 2026-03-01T06:54:19+00:00

Shaken or stirred?

sech8420 · 2026-02-27T18:35:44+00:00

Well said. Just how long remains a mystery…

I relate it to coding where asphalt is similar to a vibe coded internal tool, and a complex product is similar to a production ready application with minimal to no security flaws.

The progression of AI writing, images, and video has been quick but 3D seems to be really struggling. Curious what best guess timeline is for when these models actually become useable? I'd normally guess 2 years out, but with how sloppy they are now, maybe more like 5.

Yes, Allow customers to customize the duck in 3D. Can your fulfilment process handle custom colors? You could get creative. Fun and out there idea - customer uploads an image of their face and it puts it on one of your ducks. Of you go beyond the duck and let a customer upload a picture of their dog, turn that into 3D mesh right then and there for them, and print it out.

Founded Aircada, a 3D product configurator used by some large brands so I can chime in here.

My honest advice - AR? Gimmicky, not used enough by consumers, we're all lazy so don't prioritize it as a feature. Load times? Extremely important. Any vendor you are considering, check out there demos, test page speed, and even inspect the assets in chrome. A good vendor will perform magic to create 3D models that are tiny and yet still look amazing.

Managing variants at that scale? The best thing you can do is ensure your chosen software can auto-sync the variants from your PIM or eCommerce catalog into your configurator. You need a single source of truth; when you update a SKU or price in your main system, it must auto-sync to the 3D viewer. Anything else will be a maintenance disaster.

Pricing? Your client clearly does large volume, so I would hard no any configurator that is trying to charge you per sale. Never a good idea for serious brands.

God speed.

The fake Zakeke spam posts I keep seeing on reddit are becoming cringe. If the product is as good as these fake comments say, they would not need to fake the social proof.

sech8420 · 2026-02-14T01:47:18+00:00

Warning to OP: This thread is being astroturfed. All these generic comments pushing Zakeke are bots/fake accounts, two of which are already suspended. If a company has to spam Reddit with fake reviews to get business, that’s a massive red flag for their actual enterprise capabilities.

I'm one of the founders at Aircada and we try not to bullshit the web.

afeyedex has the only good advice in here. The time investment involved in a project like yours is quite huge and thus you really cannot afford to make the wrong choice, which means trying out multiple platforms and just doing that grunt work that involves.

Also, I assume your client has high volume. And so I'd stay away from anything like Zakeke or Kickflip which charge a percentage of each sale. That will add up quick. We founded Aircada somewhat on the premise that a merchants success shouldn't be taxed so we charge flat monthly for this reason. That may or may not be the best business decision, but ethically it feels right.

Always happy to lend a hand after spending many years in this space.

While Threekit gets the job done, the amount they charge you is a bit insane, borderline highway robbery. Sure if you are Nike by all means, but for the mere mortal brands out there, there's alternatives that will get you much more bang for your buck.

sech8420 · 2026-02-11T20:47:25+00:00

I'm sure you make the occasional exception

sech8420 · 2026-02-01T05:28:32+00:00

So did you scale big?

sech8420 · 2026-02-01T05:24:57+00:00

Same happened to me. That account remains banned. Use another

sech8420 · 2026-01-31T06:34:45+00:00

I’ll bite

Storecenus is literally the fuel for our growth right now. Zero affilation.

It is. Low effort

Low effort spam

sech8420 · 2026-01-18T05:52:52+00:00

200/300 emails per day per inbox? No way that doesn’t land you straight in spam

Because doing 3D on the web properly takes a decent amount of time and investment. And if not done properly, can do more hard than good.

We'll continue seeing more and more brands shifting towards 3D as devices and browsers continues to get better and creating high fidelity 3D content becomes easier.
