History & Vision

Where it started

JointWerks began as a mechanical design office. Our founder, Noah Donsig, designed parts and products for companies that didn't have the engineering capacity in house, and then helped them get those designs made.

The problem we kept hitting

Turning a design into real parts meant chasing quotes by email, waiting on updates that never came, and finding problems after the parts arrived. Good shops were out there, but the information between them and their customers was broken.

How we are solving it

We built our own shop, and partnered with ManuConnect, a procurement platform built by people who had lived the same problem, to connect customers directly to the work. Today more than 30 product manufacturers use the portal to routinely source and manage more than 100 products and projects.

Where we are going

A network of proven local shops, all connected through one customer portal, so buying complex parts is as clear as ordering anything else online.

Customers organize, visualize, quote, order and track their manufacturing digitally, while a local network of proven technicians gives them direct, shop-floor feedback and a local connection. It is a closed loop, from the flow of digital information to the flow of physical goods, where careers in marketing, software, robotics, mechanical engineering, manufacturing and logistics can all thrive.
