Koobz

Koobz is a Ventura, California additive-manufacturing company rebuilding the footwear supply chain around on-demand 3D printing. Its "gigafactory" prints circular-ready, mono-material foamed-TPU shoes to order, so brands carry zero inventory and face no minimum order quantities: a consumer buys on the brand's own storefront, the order and personalization specs sync to the Koobz factory, the shoe is printed in Ventura and dropshipped direct to the customer in days. The company markets 10x faster concept-to-market cycles (4-6 weeks, no tooling), custom cushioning and foot-scanning personalization, and a KoobzWeave toolpath-as-textile upper pattern engine. Its mono-material architecture is positioned for Extended Producer Responsibility regimes such as California SB 707, since a single-polymer shoe yields premium TPU on take-back rather than mixed waste. Koobz has raised $7.2M and is backed by Uncork Capital. It describes its factory as API-driven and its order intake as an API sync from brand storefronts, but as of this profile it publishes no public developer portal, API documentation, or machine-readable API definition; integration appears to run through its partner ("Partner With Us") channel.

Koobz is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Footwear, 3D Printing, Additive Manufacturing, and Manufacturing.

Koobz’s developer surface includes support and 12 more developer resources.
