Makes home cutting machines and design software/subscriptions for DIY crafters, plus branded materials and accessories.
Sells cutting machines to hobbyists and then earns on repeat purchases of its own blades, vinyl and other materials and on Cricut Access, a paid design-library subscription. The machine sale starts the relationship, so machine launches and holiday sales matter, while materials and subscriptions bring recurring income.
Moat: narrow (installed base, switching costs, brand). Owning the cutting machine locks users into Cricut's design app and materials ecosystem, but rivals compete directly.
