We meet you where you are in your campaign
Whether your campaign just launched or you're already in production, Rlzed has a service path that fits your stage.
Design + Manufacturing under one roof
Most sourcing agents can't touch your CAD files. We bridge industrial design and factory sourcing — so your design intent survives the manufacturing process.
On-site presence, not remote management
We don't manage factories from a laptop. Our local team conducts in-person inspections during production, not just a final walk-through before shipment.
1600+ vetted manufacturers matched to your product
We match you with the right facility for your category, volume, and quality standards — not just the cheapest option on a list.
IP protection from day one
We sign a strict NDA enforced in both the US and China before we see a single sketch. Manufacturing steps are separated to prevent design exposure.
Kickstarter-scale MOQs
We negotiate factory minimums down for first-run Kickstarter batches — typically starting from 500–1,000 units, not the 10,000+ you'll find elsewhere.
End-to-end: design through delivery
One partner, all the way. No handing off between agencies. We own the outcome from your first design brief to the last backer shipment.
Can Rlzed help me manufacture my Kickstarter product?
Yes — this is our core service for crowdfunding creators. We cover everything from industrial design and factory sourcing to mass production, QC, and global shipping. We work with campaigns at every stage.
How long does it take to manufacture a Kickstarter product?
Rapid prototyping takes 7–10 days. A full design-to-mass-production cycle typically runs 3–5 months. If your design is final and you just need sourcing and production, we can move in 3–4 weeks.
What is the MOQ for Kickstarter production?
We negotiate lower MOQs for Kickstarter-scale first batches — typically starting from 500–1,000 units. Far below the 5,000–10,000 minimums common with mass-market factories.
How do you ensure quality during mass production?
Our local team conducts on-site inspections throughout the production run — inline QC at critical assembly stages — so defect issues are caught before they affect your entire order.
Will you protect my product IP and design?
Before we see any designs, we sign a strict NDA enforceable in both the US and China. We also structure factory workflows to separate key components, reducing the risk of IP exposure during manufacturing.
My Kickstarter is already funded — where do I start?
via our contact page. We'll recommend the fastest path to delivery — usually starting with a DFM review and factory match.
Can you ship directly to my Kickstarter backers?
We provide DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) international shipping — handling customs, duties, and freight. We ship to Amazon FBA, your 3PL warehouse, or a direct fulfillment center.
What Kickstarter product categories do you work with?
Consumer electronics, smart home devices, lighting, outdoor and sports gear, pet products, health and wellness gadgets, kitchenware, and lifestyle accessories — the most common hardware Kickstarter categories.
Do you help with product certifications like FCC, CE, or RoHS?
Yes. For hardware products sold in the US, EU, or other regulated markets, certifications like FCC, CE, RoHS, and UL are often required — and missing them can delay customs clearance or get your product delisted. We help identify which certifications apply to your product category, coordinate with accredited testing labs, and ensure your design and manufacturing process meets the necessary standards before shipment.
