Rebrickable is an online platform allowing users to post and sell instructions for Lego designs, including alternate builds of sets. It was started by Nathan Thom in 2011 and has over one million users.
History and features
After starting in 2011 to index mainly Technic sets,[1][2] the website went through major updates in 2014 and 2017, respectively.[‡ 2][‡ 3] In late 2017, MOCPlans, a similar platform, merged with Rebrickable after being shut down.[‡ 4] A sister website for file-sharing, Bricksafe, was launched in 2013.[‡ 5]
People are able to post MOCs (My Own Creations) with the option to sell instructions. The buyer can then acquire the parts for it and build it.[3][4][5][6] Alternate builds reuse parts from existing sets.[7] Over 100,000 MOCs have been posted.[‡ 1] The Build feature on the website shows what a person can build with their current collection.[8]
Among the projects developed by them is RebrickNet, an artificial intelligence system for detecting Lego parts in photos.[9]
