We're Creative Fabrica, a fast-scaling tech start-up from Amsterdam.
Our mission
Enable creativity by giving access to everything related to the creative process: inspiration, learning, creating, and sharing. The ‘Creative Inspiration Flywheel’
This creates a self-sustaining community that lives within the Creative Fabrica ecosystem.
About the platform
We launched in 2016 as a marketplace for fonts with a subscription service. In the last 8 years, we have been through tremendous growth, and we're just getting started!
We have scaled to 50 million+ monthly page views, 8 million+ registrations, over 22 million listed products, and 22000+ active designers.
Our focus is to create a platform for designers that enables them to offer exceptional high-quality content. We make their products searchable in unique ways. This allows our customers to speed up their workflow, allowing them to focus on what they love most: Creating.
About the Team and our Products
The App teams are focused on the Creative Fabrica user products and experiences. Our current primary project is on developing Studio, an easy to use, browser-based all-in-one design platform for crafters, designers, educators, print-on-demand, and business owners.
Studio is integrated into the Creative Fabrica platform and offers a vast collection of pre-made design templates. These templates enable users to create a wide range of designs, including fonts, ads, book covers, cards, coupons, social media designs, invitation cards, postcards, noposters, tickets, and much more.
It is also equipped with all the necessary intelligent tools designed to simplify the creative process, such as Background Remover, SVG File Converter, PNG Resizer, PNG to SVG converter, and many others.
It leverages all Creative Fabrica AI capabilities to provide AI-based asset generation, inpainting and image enhancements.
