About
SampleSync came from seeing the same sample-tracking problem from both sides: inside architecture practices, then inside a material producer actually sending samples out.
Architecture degree from Melbourne. Studied at TU Delft. Five years designing buildings across Rotterdam and Melbourne. Lost 10 days once because a spec'd material got discontinued — sample vanished, no supplier contact. That happened more than once.
Left architecture in 2023, joined Plasticiet (opens in new tab) making recycled plastic sheets. Same problem from the other side: 200 samples out a month, 80% gone without a trace. Their co-founder said "if only we could attach a code to each sample." So I built it.
Currently serving a select group of material producers hands-on. Every customer gets direct founder access, fast response times, and their feedback shapes the product. The rollout is deliberately small because sample tracking shouldn't be a software project — it should just work. No one else building sample-tracking software has manufactured material samples and watched their own products vanish into architectural firms.
