About SampleSync
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 so setup stays simple. I've manufactured material samples myself and watched them vanish into architecture firms.
