Free plan · No credit card required

Quotes priced by your own grids

Screen print by colors and quantity, DTF by transfer size, embroidery by stitch count. Build the grid once (or import it from CSV) and every quote prices itself.

Artwork approvals and a customer portal

Send a quote link, let the customer approve the proof, and keep every revision on the order instead of in an email thread.

Production board and calendar

See what is printing today, what is waiting on art or blanks, and what ships this week.

Inventory and blank ordering

Track blanks and supplies, and place SanMar orders from the order screen.

Invoices and payments

Turn an approved quote into an order and an invoice, and take payment online.

Shopify storefront sync

Pull web orders from your Shopify store straight into production.

AI art tools built in

Vectorize customer logos, remove backgrounds, upscale low-res art and separate colors without leaving the order.

Gang sheet builder

Nest DTF transfers onto a roll automatically and export print-ready files.

What print shop management software does

Most shops start with spreadsheets, a price sheet taped to the wall and a whiteboard for production. It works until the shop gets busy: quotes take too long, proofs get lost in email, and nobody is sure which blanks were ordered.

Shop management software replaces that with one record per job. The quote carries the pricing, the approved artwork, the blanks, the production status and the invoice, so anyone in the shop can pick it up.

Built for decorated apparel

  • Screen printing: price by number of colors, print locations and quantity breaks, with screen and setup fees.
  • DTF and DTG: price by transfer size and quantity, and gang transfers onto a roll.
  • Embroidery: price by stitch count and quantity, and check real stitch counts with the free DST/PES viewer.
  • Promo and merch: online stores, Shopify orders and customer approvals in the same system.
