What a year it’s been!
A year ago, Gloria Yu and I took the leap to build Fabra – and what an unforgettable journey it’s been so far. Starting something from scratch is never easy, but it’s been worth every late night, every lesson, and every win, big or small.
As we wrap up 2024, I wanted to take a moment to share some reflections:
?????? ????????
?? Our incredible team.
There’s no greater joy than working with talented, passionate people who believe in our shared vision to democratise product design. To Gloria Yu, Aron Weston, Eloise Langley, Maria Maung, Ben C., William Sun, Koyyi Chin – and the many others who’ve helped us over 2024 – I’m grateful for everything you do. ?? (P.S. – We’re #hiring! Join us!)
?? Our Alpha launch.
We launched the first version of Fabra with 20 initial 3D templates that make designing physical products easy and fun.
?? Partnering with believers.
We’ve partnered with key partners who share our vision. Their support means everything, and we can’t wait to share some exciting announcements in early 2025! A big thank you to Oliver Kicks, Ariel Rahamim, Alex Rankin, Ben Grabiner and Elli Hanson for all your ongoing support.
?????? ??????????????
?? Focus is everything.
We’ve honed in on creating real value for our core users. Staying laser-focused on building our easy-to-use product design tool with our users is our North Star.
?? Seamless onboarding matters.
We learned the hard way that even easy-to-use tools need user guides and onboarding support. 2025 will see us doubling down on this.
?? Build with users.
Our early users have been invaluable to our build. Their ongoing feedback has guided every step of the journey – and we’re listening!
????????’?? ???????? ???? ????????
? Beta Launch.
We’re taking everything we’ve learned from our Alpha to deliver a bigger, better Beta soon. We’re excited to launch new features soon that give more 3D design capabilities.
?? More 3D templates & assets.
Our template library is growing fast! We’re building a massive library of 3D templates and assets to empower product creators everywhere.
?? Growing our community.
Workshops, live Q&As, collaborations – connecting with you all has been a highlight of 2024, and we’re making it an even bigger priority next year.
A Big Thank You!
To our team, early users, advisors, and supporters – you’ve made 2024 unforgettable. Fabra exists because of your belief in the power of democratising design.
When Gloria Yu and I started this, we imagined a world where anyone could bring their product ideas to life with ease – regardless of experience, time, or resources. And we’re just getting started. Here’s to 2025 and beyond!
