About TopoStitch
TopoStitch is exploring a simpler way for makers and product brands to turn one physical product into reusable digital content for ecommerce, marketing, 3D, AR, and more.
Why we're building it
A new product photo, campaign, marketplace, background, or format often means another round of production work. TopoStitch is being built around a different idea: create one reusable digital version of a product, then keep creating from it.
The founder
Jacob's background spans product design, 3D, immersive technology, digital experiences, and software development.
Before TopoStitch, he co-founded Ario, an augmented reality company where he served as Creative Director and helped build products for enterprise and government customers.
He was also a co-inventor on Ario's patented platform and has worked across interactive product experiences, spatial computing, ecommerce, and emerging technology.
TopoStitch started from the technology side: making physical capture, 3D processing, and publishing easier.
The bigger opportunity became clearer over time. The model itself isn't the end product. It's the foundation for everything a brand can create from a physical product.
That's why we're now focused on helping small brands and independent makers turn physical products into reusable digital assets and content.
Where we are now
We're building the core workflow for turning physical products into reusable digital product assets.
We're working with makers and small brands to understand which outcomes are actually worth paying for.
The goal is not to pretend the product is finished. It's to build the right thing with real customers.
Who we are
TopoStitch is founded and led by a U.S. Navy veteran with a background spanning design, media, technology, and immersive product development.
TopoStitch is a minority-owned independent company shaped by multidisciplinary experience across design, technology, and entrepreneurship.
TopoStitch is LGBTQ+ owned and founder-led, with a commitment to building a company that reflects a broader range of people, perspectives, and creative communities.
Product decisions, customer discovery, and early pilots are being shaped directly by the founder and the people testing TopoStitch with real products.
TopoStitch participated in Startup Virginia's Idea Factory, helping sharpen the venture through customer discovery, positioning, and early-stage business validation.
Work with us
If you make or sell physical products and want better ways to create product imagery, 3D experiences, AR, or reusable marketing content, we'd like to hear from you.
We're looking for a small number of makers and product brands who are willing to test the workflow with real products and real business needs.
