Creating 3D print models can take excessive amounts of time and usually requires special professional level software that is prohibitively expensive for many people.  Even if someone has the model that they want to input into a 3D printer, making even small edits to it involves using this complex and time-consuming software.  This situation prevents anyone from making quick edits or last second changes to 3D print models before using them. 

Cool product in technology Matter.io wants to change this reality through the use of cloud technology.  By running the company’s web app in a browser, Matter.io makes it possible for users to upload and edit 3D print models online from any computer at any time.  Much like cloud tech support services that connect users directly to service providers, Matter.io’s use of cloud services can potentially turn a once inconvenient and problematic situation into an easy process for customers.  By creating a Matter.io account, users can upload the 3D print models they want available and have quick access them from multiple workstations, and even on mobile devices like tablets and smartphones.  However, to access projects via mobile devices, users will have to use a compatible mobile browser.  A tablet PC support specialist can likely help consumers determine whether their browser of choice is useable to access Matter.io’s features.

Matter.io could be particularly useful for small companies that need to use 3D printers for prototyping purposes.  Prototypes from 3D printed models usually go through several iterations and tweaks before a design team finalizes them.  With Matter.io, these design teams now have the option to make tweaks at a moment’s notice, regardless of where team members are at the time.  If one designer wants to make a change before prototyping, but he’s at home, he can simply access Matter.io and change the 3D model through the cloud system.

While useful, Matter.io is a limited web app.  The company cannot yet produce professional level tools for editing 3D print models in a browser application.  However, with time, that may be the next step for this startup and their cool product.
