    Setup

    Basics of Setting Up Your Print Shop (YouTube, opens in a new tab)

    Set up your shop's backend so you can take orders and send customers automatic quotes.

    What this video covers: Basics of Setting Up Your Print Shop

    On the Configuration tab, set a maximum build size for FDM, SLA, and SLS. A technology with no materials stays off your widget. For each material, enter density, colors, layer heights, infill, and pricing: a startup cost, a price per gram, and a curve threshold. Then choose a default material, such as PLA, and pair each FDM material with a support material such as PVA or BVOH, or with itself.

    Pricing

    Pricing to Perfection (YouTube, opens in a new tab)

    See how material pricing works and how to change the pricing algorithm.

    What this video covers: Pricing to Perfection

    Each material is priced from a startup cost, a price per gram, and a curve threshold. A threshold of 1 keeps pricing linear. Below 1, larger prints get progressively cheaper. Above 1, they get progressively more expensive. FDM support material is priced the same way. Urgency options can add a percentage, such as 60% for 0 to 1 day turnaround, or give a discount for slower delivery.

    What this video covers: Tour of the Frontend Interface

    See a quote the way your customers do. They drop in STL files, enter an email, and change scale, technology, material, layer height, and infill while the price updates. The review step shows the per-unit price, startup cost, and turnaround options before the quote is emailed to your shop, and shipping is added at checkout.

    How to set up the widget and add it to your website with a line of HTML or an iframe.

    What this video covers: Install AutoQuote3D on Your Website

    The Website widgets tab gives you three ways to add quoting: a button embed, a direct link you can attach to any text or image, and an iframe. We recommend the button, which opens a page where customers drop in their files. The iframe keeps quoting on your own site.

    What this video covers: Tour of the Backend Interface / Order Management

    Your dashboard shows revenue, quote and order counts, average order value, and conversion rate. Orders move from an authorized quote through invoicing, payment, printing, shipping, pickup, and completion. You can also create a quote yourself by entering a customer and dropping in STL files.

Every hour you spend quoting manually is an hour you’re not printing.
