Prototypes are defined as an early sample or release of a product that will be used to test a concept or process. Designers learn from prototypes and, if they work, they are then replicated to create the final product. In some cases, prototypes are used as a marketing tool or as a strategic validation in business. Whichever is the case, prototypes are vital to a range of industries, but most especially in manufacturing. 

Foam models are the most cost-effective approach to iterating and validating your design. It is also the quickest to accomplish because it can be created with or without the use of 3D CAD. 

3D printing is the most versatile and powerful prototyping technology. Because you can use a wide range of processes and materials, you can create a prototype that closely represents the final product that you have in mind. 

Freelance prototyping is also used for creating a mechanical proof of concept. In this approach, readily available materials are used to make a representational model, which will be used to study any flaws in the design. A visual prototype focuses on the aesthetics of a design, which is why it is often used for marketing, crowdfunding videos, and venture capital proposals. 

A functional prototype, as the name suggests, demonstrates the functionality of the design. Among the prototyping services, this one is often the more complex because it actually has to work.

Whichever prototyping approach you need to complete your project, we have a network of highly-skilled freelance prototyping professionals who can help. With a commitment to connect clients with nothing but top-tier freelancers, you can bet that the prototyping freelancers assigned to you will deliver prototypes of high quality and design accuracy.
