Fictiv
Oakland, California, United States
What it is
Fictiv is a web platform for sourcing custom mechanical parts from prototype through production. Buyers can submit a 3D model or drawing for instant pricing on prototype or expedited parts, or request a quote for complex parts and production programs. Listed manufacturing processes include CNC machining, sheet metal, injection molding, die casting, 3D printing, compression molding, and urethane casting. Fictiv says most quotes arrive within two business days, with no credit card or order commitment required to request one. Eligible non-tooling CNC, 3D printing, and sheet metal parts can be quoted across up to five quantity tiers. The platform offers design-for-manufacturability guidance and production visibility, including inspection photos, shipping updates, and traceability. Fictiv Teams coordinates sourcing across projects and organizations. Experts can assist with mold design, finite element analysis, BOM consolidation, and NPI readiness. Procurement connections support cXML-compatible systems such as SAP Ariba, Coupa, and Microsoft Dynamics 365. Pricing is available on request.
