Same aisle, different product

The names sit one word apart. Quote3D sells a way to calculate a price and return it through an API or a widget. AutoQuote3D is the Business's quoting and order tool: materials, the Widget, payment, and the Order record. A developer can build a storefront on their API. A print service can take Quotes on our Widget without that project.

Quote3D's docs print the label API v2 and Cloud Slicer. Cloud Slicer's site uses the same line, "Perfect for 3D printing services and small print farms," and publishes its own API plans, including a $0 plan and a $10 a month Pro plan. Cloud Slicer's homepage did not mention Quote3D, so the table stays with Quote3D as quote3d.com describes it. Check both names before you compare a price.

A quote API is not the Order

Calling an API gives you a number. The customer still needs a place to upload, a way to pay, and a record your team can fulfill. AutoQuote3D keeps that path in one product: the Widget, Stripe checkout, and the dashboard. A connected Shopify store can take payment on that store's checkout instead, as a draft order and a Shopify checkout link.

Quote3D documents the API, the widget, printer profiles, and quote history. The homepage accepts STL, 3MF, and OBJ files up to 50 MB. We did not review a hands-on Order desk on their site. If you need the API inside software you already run, try theirs with your profiles. If you need the customer to finish an Order, run the same file through our Widget and see what lands after they pay.

What AutoQuote3D costs

You can set up a shop and try a quote without paying. Taking customer payments needs a plan or the 14-day trial. We do not take a cut of orders. Stripe still charges their processing fee.

Starter
$25
USD per month
For one-person shops quoting up to 50 jobs a month.
Professional
$50
USD per month
For growing shops that need unlimited quotes and their own branding.
Service Bureaus
$175
USD per month
For teams managing two businesses, add-ons, and faster support.

The 14-day trial starts when you check out for a subscription, which needs a payment method. Cancel before it ends if you do not want to be charged. See the full plans, limits, and annual billing.

Before you switch

  1. Quote the same file in both, with your real materials, and write down the price and what the customer does next.
  2. If you are embedding a quote API in a product you are building, try Quote3D's API and widget. If you want checkout and Orders without that build, try AutoQuote3D.
  3. Read the "API v2 & Cloud Slicer" label on their docs, and Cloud Slicer's own plans, before you treat those names as one price.

Don't take your public quote link down while you test. Price a real job and finish an order first. For AutoQuote3D setup, see our tutorials or talk to us about your shop.

Common questions

Is AutoQuote3D the same product as Quote3D?

No. Quote3D (quote3d.com) is a 3D printing quote API and widget, also labeled API v2 and Cloud Slicer on its docs. AutoQuote3D is quoting and order software: the Widget, checkout, and a dashboard for Quotes and Orders.

Does Quote3D have an API or AI?

Yes. They publish a REST API at api.quote3d.com/v2, and the homepage describes an AI agent on the quote tool. We did not find an MCP server or a Claude connector on the pages we reviewed. AutoQuote3D has a public API, an MCP server, an official Claude connector, and an official ChatGPT plugin.
