Identify3D develops software that encrypts, distributes, and traces the flow of digital parts across complex additive manufacturing supply chains. Its product suite protects intellectual property, ensures manufacturing repeatability, and provides traceability from initial design through finished 3D-printed product, preventing counterfeits and ensuring that modified, substandard, or uncertified parts cannot enter the physical supply chain. Founded in 2014 in San Francisco, Identify3D was acquired by Belgian 3D-printing leader Materialise NV in September 2022 and integrated into Materialise's CO-AM software platform.
