View companies raising nowWhile print on demand is a great way to get art and prints on products, finding the right prices, aligning the content to product, publishing, pushing catalog to sites like Amazon, Etsy and Snapdeal, and figuring out fulfillment globally is a massive time sink - trust us we’ve gone through this.
We want content creators to focus on making great content, and we’ll handle the rest.
On the other side, American manufacturers of apparel and accessories are running under capacity. We aim to bring them more business by expanding their customer base through new content creators who welcome a frictionless experience.

With zero inventory, warehousing and from a purely automated content to product catalog, Rucept has managed to sell in India and USA on Amazon.com, Snapdeal and Flipkart.
Rucept makes money twice:
Platform Services where we help clients Design -> Catalog -> List, with 30% net profit
Revenue from sales of apparel and merchandise, where we keep 10% of net profit
Additionally, Rucept sources Creative Commons 0 license media for its own brand outlet, so we can keep 100% of net profit from sales of our company catalog.
Nearly all our early traction has been simple, high quality phone cases, and we’ve added nearly 200 product templates to our offering since them (catalog formation and uploads pending).
Rucept has also brought in revenue from artists who have earned commissions from simply submitting art and earning revenue.
There are 16,000 social channels by content creators with over 1mm subs / visitors. If 1 in 1000 visitors (0.1% conversion) per month spends $30, we’re looking at a $5.7bn or billionBN market. Ecommerce science proves this to be a very conservative estimate And this is JUST for North America.
Our strategy is to integrate with their content deployment schemas to push out product as soon as content goes live, turning visitors into customer.
Rucept is an unique position where it aggregates the services of several other in the print on demand, multichannel listing, and fulfillment space. Since no one of these companies do all the things, Rucept is uniquely placed Rucept does not have a true competitor as far as a holistic, integrated platform goes.
With Rucept, the sum of all solutions provided is faster and more cost effective than each one individually.
