Building the 3D Infrastructure of Tomorrow: The Bond Fund Invests in Artlabs AI
The next era of spatial commerce and immersive retail won't be built on slow, manual processes; it will be built on scalable, AI-native infrastructure. That is why The Bond Fund is backing Artlabs AI, a company building a proprietary 3D generation engine that eliminates the need for expensive photography or manual scanning.
For organizations striving to build immersive customer experiences, the operational bottleneck is a familiar one. The demand for 3D content is exploding across a $100B+ market, but creation remains manual, slow, and expensive.
Creating a single digital twin can currently take up to three days of manual work per product, often requiring brands to physically ship items or coordinate complex photo shoots. Teams are frequently forced to choose between high-fidelity outputs from slow agencies or faster, lower-quality AI tools. Meanwhile, disconnected workflows across scanning, modeling, and deployment continue to limit scalable enterprise adoption.
Scalable 3D Generation by Design
Artlabs is tackling this problem by taking a fundamentally different approach to 3D creation.
Instead of relying on manual modeling, Artlabs provides an AI-native infrastructure that makes 3D workflows 10x faster. Powered by their proprietary, patent-pending AI model, 'Jenerator', the platform generates high-fidelity 3D visuals using just the 4-6 standard images that brands already have.
This means zero extra photography, scanning, or manual modeling for the client.
Beyond asset generation, Artlabs provides an end-to-end platform that includes seamless deployment, lightning-fast runtime experiences such as virtual try-ons, and detailed ROI analytics.
A Data Flywheel as the Ultimate Moat
Our investment thesis is clear: as spatial commerce expands, the winners will be the companies that can deliver the highest visual fidelity at scale without operational complexity.
Achieving this requires a massive, high-quality data foundation.
During its first two years, Artlabs manually scanned thousands of 3D assets, building a foundational dataset that enabled the team to fine-tune its proprietary AI models. Today, the platform outperforms commercial alternatives in visual fidelity.
Replicating this ecosystem would require access to tens of thousands of high-quality 3D assets, significant capital investment, and years of specialized engineering work. By leveraging this deep data flywheel, Artlabs has established a highly defensible long-term market position.
Behind this technical breakthrough is an exceptional team with deep expertise in artificial intelligence and scalable product deployment. Co-founders Ugur Yekta Basak (CEO) and Sercan Demircan (CTO) have successfully validated their platform with blue-chip enterprise brands and delivered immersive experiences to over 10 million users last year.
Their capital-efficient execution and proven ability to deliver zero churn among enterprise clients position them perfectly to dominate this space.
We are proud to support Ugur, Sercan, and the entire Artlabs AI team as they build the foundational infrastructure required for the next era of spatial content across multiple industries, including retail, physical AI and entertainment.
