Printuple is the operating system for your 3D-printing business.
Printuple is business software for 3D-printing shops. It brings sales channels, automatic slicing and printing, filament tracking, shop-floor workflows, and true cost and profit into one connected system, so makers can run the whole operation from a single place instead of stitching together five separate tools. Printuple is built and operated by Digitex LLC and is available at printuple.com.
Printuple is the operating system for your 3D-printing business. It connects the two halves of a print shop that usually live in separate tools: the commerce side, where orders come in from Etsy, Shopify, TikTok Shop, a built-in storefront, or the counter, and the production side, where those orders are sliced, printed on your own Bambu printers, tracked to the gram of filament, and moved across the shop floor with QR travelers. Every cost input, from material and waste to energy, machine time, labor, failure rate, and channel fees, rolls into one honest number, so shops price to a real margin instead of a guess. Printuple is built and operated by Digitex LLC, doing business as Printuple, and is live at printuple.com. It was founded by Drew Adkins, a maker who got tired of running a shop across five disconnected tools.

What we are building toward
Running a business that sells what it prints should not take five apps that never talk to each other. Printuple exists to give makers one system for the whole operation: take the order, price it to a real margin, slice and print it on machines you own, track every spool, and ship it.
We are building the operational backbone that the big commerce platforms never built for physical, made-to-order production, and keeping it simple enough for one person with one printer to grow on. No lock-in, no handing over your catalog, your customers, or your machines.
Honest numbers
Cost and profit should match reality: material, waste, energy, labor, failure rate, and fees, not a hopeful guess.
You own your data
Your catalog, customers, models, and history belong to you. Export them whenever you want.
No lock-in
Run your own printers on your own network, be your own merchant of record, and keep control of your business.
One system, not five
Selling and printing belong in the same place. Every feature is built to work with the next.
One system for the whole shop
Printuple runs the operation end to end, from the sale to the plate to the box.
Orders from every channel
Direct sales, a built-in storefront, and imports from Etsy, Shopify, and TikTok Shop, all in one pipeline.
Automatic slicing and printing
Accepted orders are sliced and sent to an available printer on your own network, with no manual file wrangling.
Filament tracked to the gram
An append-only usage ledger keeps every spool current, so cost per gram stays right and low stock shows up before you start a print.
Shop-floor QR workflows
Printable travelers move each job through stations, with operator attribution at every step.
A storefront of your own
Sell direct with a full storefront and checkout on Stripe, where you stay the merchant of record.
True cost and profit
Every input rolls up, minus each channel's fees, so you price to a margin and quote in seconds.

About the founder
Drew Adkins is the founder of Printuple. He runs a small 3D-printing business and started Printuple after finding that scaling up meant running the shop across a marketplace in one tab, a filament tracker in another, and a slicer in a third, none of which talked to each other.
Printuple is the single system he wanted: one place to pull in orders from every channel, print them on his own machines, track every spool and part, and sell through a storefront of his own. He is building it for makers who sell what they print.
