Konstantina Psoma, Kaedim: The startup that is revolutionizing 3D design with AI
“No one will listen to you if you only talk and don’t act.”
About the speaker
Konstantina’s path began with a university project that combined her love of mathematics and computer science with a curiosity for visual design. What started as a simple course assignment quickly revealed a massive problem: creating 3D digital objects is complex, expensive, and painfully slow. Determined to solve it, she launched Kaedim to transform 2D images into 3D models in seconds - a breakthrough with applications spanning gaming, architecture, e-commerce, and beyond.
The road was far from straightforward. Early pilots failed, and building the right team proved to be one of her toughest challenges. But Konstantina leaned on resilience, relentless outreach, and what she calls the “not-give-up attitude.” From cold LinkedIn messages to multiple rejections at Y Combinator, she refused to stop pushing until Kaedim gained traction. Her persistence paid off: today the company counts global clients, a rapidly growing team, and backing from Andreessen Horowitz, one of the world’s top venture capital firms.
For Konstantina, being an Outlier means resilience, ambition, and risk-taking - the willingness to be “comfortable with discomfort.” Her story is a reminder that groundbreaking companies often start with a single frustration and grow through persistence, adaptability, and vision.
