Kaedim
AI plus in-house artists turning 2D references into production-ready 3D assets
Overview
Kaedim converts sketches, concept art, product photos and reference packs into 3D models, combining machine learning with an in-house artist team that reviews and fixes each asset. It serves game studios, product designers and e-commerce brands with a markup-and-revision workflow, engine plugins and an API. Pricing is quoted per customer; a separate self-serve tool, Secret Sauce 3D, sells to individual artists from $25 a month.

ASEAN Perspective
Kaedim in Southeast Asia
Kaedim is a globally accessible SaaS product with no dedicated APAC or ASEAN presence, localisation, or regional pricing — English is the only supported language for both the interface and customer support. That said, the ASEAN game development sector (particularly studios in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines) is a natural fit for the platform's value proposition, as reducing 3D asset production costs is a recurring pain point for studios competing on smaller per-title budgets. Enterprise plans with API access and custom integrations are the most viable path for larger ASEAN studios, while indie studios in the region may find the Indie-tier pricing difficult to justify without high asset throughput. No confirmed ASEAN customers or case studies are publicly available as of mid-2026.
Kaedim's human-in-the-loop model is its defence against instant generators: an artist checks topology, UVs and materials before a model is delivered, and teams can request unlimited revisions. That makes it slower than a pure AI tool but more predictable for studios and brands that need assets to a spec.
The catch is opacity. There is no public price, the savings figures come from Kaedim's own case studies, and customers are steered into a sales conversation. Worth a call for studios and e-commerce teams with recurring 3D volume; individuals should try the company's Secret Sauce 3D or an automated generator instead.
What we found
Kaedim began as a final-year project at the University of Bristol, where Konstantina Psoma and Roman Bromidge set the company up in February 2020; Kaedim Limited is registered in London. Its idea has stayed the same: turn 2D sketches, concept art and reference images into 3D models by pairing machine learning with an in-house team of technical artists who check and fix each model before delivery. Its documentation calls the machine output an 80% starting point, and the human pass is what turns that into a usable asset. That makes Kaedim closer to an AI-assisted outsourcing studio than to an instant generator such as Meshy or Tripo.
The positioning has widened. The homepage now pitches 3D production at scale for product design and e-commerce imagery as well as games, built around a review loop where teams mark up a model, request changes and approve it, with unlimited free revisions. Exports cover GLB, glTF, OBJ, FBX and USD, there are plugins for Unity, Unreal Engine, Blender and NVIDIA Omniverse, and an API with webhooks lets a game or app accept user-generated 3D. Kaedim says it holds ISO 27001 certification and never trains shared models on customer material.
There is no public price any more. The old pricing page now returns a 404, the FAQ says each customer gets a custom pricing plan, and earlier per-month figures could not be found on any live page. Savings claims, such as $600,000 a year for Lowe's, come from Kaedim's own case studies. For individual artists, Kaedim Inc. runs a separate self-serve tool, Secret Sauce 3D, at $25 a month for 50 credits with a three-day trial.
a16z Games led an investment announced in March 2024, which trade press put at $15 million. Kaedim suits studios and brands with steady asset volume; solo creators should look at Secret Sauce 3D or fully automated generators.

Notable facts
- Kaedim was born out of a University of Bristol New Enterprise Competition — the founders won first prize (including £10,000) and used that to launch the company in 2020.
- The name 'Kaedim' is a Hebrew word meaning 'eastward' or 'ancient', reflecting the founders' aspiration to move the creative industries forward.
- Early pilot customers included Aardman Animations (creators of Wallace and Gromit) and Rebellion Games (makers of Sniper Elite) — signed before Kaedim even had a public product.
- Founder Konstantina Psoma grew up in Athens, Greece, watching her father code and her mother create art — she credits this dual influence for conceiving a product that bridges AI engineering and creative production.
