When Mikko and I founded Tinkercad in 2010 we set out to build the most advanced solid modeling tool in the world. One of our key innovations was a radical new cloud based CAD platform. Using this platform we were able to build a tool that is both extremely easy-to-use while still maintaining the power of true solid modeling.
Since launching tinkercad.com in 2011, we have been overwhelmed by the number of designs created with Tinkercad. This same community has used Tinkercad in ways we never imagined. They consistently challenge and impress us with their creativity and devotion to their craft. To date, the Tinkercad community has published more than 100,000 designs making us the largest public repository of solid models in the world.
Over time it has become clear the majority of our users hail from the United States. We want to continue to build, strengthen and support this growth. That is why we are excited to announce that Tinkercad is moving its headquarter and core product development to San Francisco, California. We just opened our new U.S. office in the vibrant South of Market district of the city.
I speak for the entire Tinkercad team when I say that we are honored to be working with such a passionate community of designers. We are looking forward to a closer collaboration with all of you.
