About BILT
The concept of a 3D assembly experience originated one evening in June 2012 when a software sales executive attempted to assemble a sandbox for his toddlers. The materials were high quality, but it took “way too long” because the paper instructions were “beyond dismal.” His dilemma underscored a job to be done: create something better.
He’d seen 3D instructions in use in the aerospace industry and wondered if they could be created for consumer products.
