What Madeinadd Srl does

Madeinadd Srl (DBA MadeInAdd) is an Italian digital manufacturing marketplace founded in 2022 and headquartered in Milan, Italy. The company operates an online platform that aggregates a curated network of certified Italian manufacturing partners to deliver on-demand 3D printing and CNC machining services to industrial customers. The platform supports ten additive manufacturing processes (including DMLS, SLA, SLS, MJF, FDM, DLP, DED, Binder Jetting, Polyjet, and large-format printing) plus multi-axis CNC milling and turning, spanning more than 74 materials for additive and 24+ for CNC machining.

The platform layers proprietary AI tooling on top of the marketplace: a generative AI agent named 'Maddie' guides users through quoting and material selection, and a computer vision system reconstructs 3D models from 2D photos or drawings to enable instant quotation without pre-existing CAD files. Above the core marketplace, Madeinadd offers three professional services — Design for Additive Manufacturing (topology optimization, field-driven design, structural/fluid analysis), Business Advisory (BOM screening, prototyping, serial production, lifecycle planning), and Digital Inventory (digitized part libraries for on-demand reproduction).

The business model is transaction-based with per-part quote pricing determined algorithmically from material, technology, quantity, and complexity inputs. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; payment options include credit card, SEPA Direct Debit, and invoice terms (30/60 day end-of-month). The go-to-market combines a self-serve product-led motion for SMBs and individuals with inside-sales expert consultation for enterprise accounts. The primary customer segment is Italian industrial manufacturers' R&D and procurement functions, with secondary vertical exposure to aerospace, automotive, medical, luxury, nautical, and electronics. The company is backed by CDP Venture Capital and industrial groups Dumarey and Fomas, which combined their expertise to create the entity. Current operations are Italy-only, with stated plans for broader European expansion.
