Nozzlet Works
LiveShop management software for home and small 3D print businesses. The real cost of every job, filament and supplies kept in stock, and prints scheduled around the shop's day.
The project
Most small print businesses run on a spreadsheet that grew one tab at a time. It works until a second printer, a new filament, or a product that needs hardware and packaging comes along. Then pricing becomes guesswork, stock runs out mid-job, and printers sit idle overnight.
Nozzlet Works replaces that spreadsheet. It works out what every print really costs, from the shop's own electricity, labour, wear on its printers and the grams of filament each plate uses, and suggests a price that hits the shop's target margin. It keeps track of every spool and supply, schedules jobs across the shop's printers, and runs the sales side too, from a quote to an order to an invoice.
It sits alongside the Nozzlet directory, so a shop can manage its listing, messages and reviews from the same place. It works with any printer and any slicer, and every action can be undone or corrected.
