ONMOTIO
Product work since 2017
ONMOTIO . From concept to market

Kickstarter wants a working prototype. Not a render.

A product render: an air purifier, a white molded shell over a fine louvre grille. The same purifier sectioned, showing the molded chassis, the impeller, the pleated filter, the circuit board and the harness in its clips.
A renderwhat you have
A prototypewhat the campaign page needs

Before you commit to a launch date, one document tells you what your product costs to make, how long the tooling takes, and whether the date you have in mind is real.

From $250, a study written for your project. One payment, no subscription. Concepts, development and prototypes are scoped on their own.

Most funded hardware campaigns ship late. The reason is always the same.

Not because the founders were careless. Because the launch date was set before anyone had costed the tooling.

the page cannot go up

    Every one of those is a date, not a budget. That is why campaigns slip.

    Ranges are market orders of magnitude for a molded consumer product, not a quote. The date drawn here is an example. Your own numbers are what the document is for.

    Four steps, and one of them is us saying no.

    You are never charged before you have seen the scope and the price written down for your own project.

    01

    You describe the project

    A paragraph. What you are making, and the date you have in mind.

    02

    We name the right one

    Or we tell you that none of them answers your question. That happens.

    03

    You get an order page

    Your project, the scope, the price. Nothing is charged until you accept.

    04

    We write it

    It arrives by email, with the verdict on the first page and the reasoning behind it.

    This is what an answer looks like.

    Nobody wakes up wanting a costing study. They wake up not knowing what the thing will cost to make. Each of these is one decision, written down.

    From $250

    Each one is written for your project, never adapted from a template. We name the one that fits, or tell you none of them does. Where a project needs concepts, engineering or a working prototype, that is a larger piece of work and we say so rather than sell you a study instead.

    The same decision, made later, costs more.

    Concepts, engineering, prototyping, tooling. We have run that sequence enough times to know which decisions have to be settled before which step, and that is most of what you are paying for further along the road.

    The same change, priced at each stage

    A week now. A year later. Fifty times the cost.

    Most of what a hardware project costs is not the work. It is the work done twice.

    The record

    We are on the other side of this.

    The documents on this page come out of that work. You can buy one without buying the rest.

    10xits goal on Indiegogo

    A plant-inspired air purifier.

    We drew it, then took it to injection tooling. We did not run the campaign.

    Clement was leading our project in a very structured, transparent and professional way. The result speaks for itself.

      Working prototype

      Solar lawn mower, from concept to the kit its campaign needed.

    We are not a campaign agency.

    What we do not run

    We do not run your campaign: no ads, no PR, no community management. Plenty of people do that well and we will point you to them.

    What we do

    We design the product and build the prototype: concept, development, prototyping. We also make what shows it: renderings, animation, and the campaign page if you want it.

    If all you need to know is whether it can be made, what it costs and when it can ship, one of the documents above answers that.

    Tell us what you are making.

    A paragraph is enough. Include your launch date if you have one, even if you are not sure about it. We read these ourselves and answer with the document that fits, or with the reason none of them does. Usually the same day.

    No account, no call booked against your will, no newsletter. One reply, from a person.
