Turn your creation into a product.
Shared infrastructure for makers building in the open — locally, sustainably, together.
Why We Exist
Building where makers actually are.
SelfCrafted exists to grow the maker ecosystem where it already lives — in cities, workshops, and small-batch shops. Not by replacing it with another generic marketplace, but by giving it the infrastructure to thrive.
We connect storefronts, local sourcing, fulfillment, and community into one shared layer — so indie hardware can grow sustainably, rooted in the places and people that build it.
The goal isn't a quick flip. It's a healthier ecosystem: makers finding each other, shipping reliably, and scaling without losing what makes their work local and real.
Your Path
From prototype to product in four steps.
How a single craft moves from workshop to marketplace — and back into the ecosystem.
-
Prototype
Build your hardware, document the design, and open-source it under the right license. We help you validate before you invest in inventory.
-
Connect
Share your project on Discord or reach out via email. Get feedback from other makers, find collaborators, and plug into the community before you list.
-
Launch
Get listed on the marketplace. We handle quality checks, storefront setup, and fulfillment logistics so your product reaches buyers.
-
Scale
As demand grows, draw on manufacturing, compliance, sourcing, and marketing support within the network — scaling sustainably without starting over.
Platform
Infrastructure that grows with you.
The tools to list, sell, and source locally — with room to grow when your craft finds its audience.
// core_platform
- Maker marketplace
- A storefront and discovery layer built for indie hardware — so makers can sell to buyers who care about where things come from.
- Local sourcing
- Connect with component makers and fabricators in your city. Build supply chains rooted in the communities you already work in.
- Creator community
- A network of indie creators sharing knowledge, parts, and demand — strengthening the ecosystem where you are, not somewhere else.
// scale_up_services
5% platform fee — scaling services available as you grow. Fees for hands-on assistance vary by product complexity.
