Instant 3D printing quotes, built for Shopify. A customer uploads a 3D model, chooses print options, and sees the price update. The quote then becomes a Shopify draft order, ready for the merchant's normal workflow.

The short answer

What is Filaquote?

Filaquote is a 3D printing quote app for Shopify. It analyzes the real geometry of a customer's uploaded model, combines it with the merchant's materials, machine rates and margins, and displays a live price in the storefront. Submitting the quote creates a Shopify draft order with the original file and print choices attached.

The old way

Email tag, all day.

  • Customer emails an STL and asks "how much?"
  • You open a slicer, guess the settings, write back hours later.
  • They've already bought from someone faster.
  • Every quote is manual, inconsistent and unpaid work.
With Filaquote

A price before they blink.

  • The model is measured in the browser the moment it lands.
  • Your rates, materials and margins produce a consistent price.
  • They check out instantly - or you get a clean draft order to approve.
  • Pricing is verified server-side, so it can't be gamed.
How it works

From upload to order in three moves.

  1. 01

    Install & set your materials

    Add the app, then load your filaments in one click from the built-in library - Bambu Lab, Polymaker, Prusament, eSUN and more, with densities and brand colors pre-filled. Set your rates, margins and turnaround options.

  2. 02

    Customers upload a model

    The quote widget sits on your storefront. Shoppers drag in an STL, 3MF, STEP or OBJ and get a live, rotatable 3D preview with an instant price - picking material, color, infill and quality as they go.

  3. 03

    Orders land in Shopify

    They check out, or a draft order arrives in your admin to approve, counter or send. The original file is stored securely and attached, so you print exactly what was quoted.

Built for print shops

Everything you need to quote like a machine.

Real geometry. Real pricing. A 3D viewer your customers actually enjoy using.

Pricing from real geometry

Filaquote measures volume, surface area, bounding box and complexity from the mesh itself - then factors shell and infill weight, estimated print time, material cost, machine time and your margins into one honest number. No flat fees, no guesswork.

A pro 3D viewer

Orbit, zoom and pan a smooth Three.js preview. Toggle exact dimensions in mm or inches, inspect the mesh as solid or wireframe, measure distances and slice a live cross-section.

Native 3MF & multi-plate

Read Bambu Studio & MakerWorld projects, pick a plate, and assign a real color to every part of a multi-object print.

One-click filament library

14 brands of curated materials with densities, print-speed and true brand color ranges - set up your catalog in seconds, not spreadsheets.

Precision & turnaround tiers

Offer Draft, Standard and Fine quality (with layer height and time multipliers) plus Standard or Express turnaround - priced automatically.

🛡

Tamper-proof pricing

Every quote is recalculated and verified on the server from the raw geometry before an order is created. A mismatched browser price is simply rejected.

🛒

From quote to checkout

Approved quotes turn into native Shopify draft orders automatically - taxes, shipping and your existing payment providers all work exactly as they do for any other order. No manual invoicing, no copy-paste.

Recover lost quotes

Abandoned-quote recovery with automatic reminders brings shoppers back to finish checkout, so quotes never quietly disappear.

📈

Margins that hold

Stepped volume pricing, per-gram material rates, hourly machine time and a global minimum order value - dial in exactly the margin you need on every print, then send manual quotes or counter-offers when a job needs a human touch.

Questions

Good to know.

What file formats does Filaquote support?

STL, 3MF, STEP/STP and OBJ. STL and 3MF are analysed instantly in the customer's browser; STEP files are converted on our servers. 3MF and Bambu Studio / MakerWorld projects keep their multi-plate and per-part information.

How is the price calculated?

From the real geometry of the model - volume, surface area, bounding box and complexity - combined with material weight, estimated print time and your configured rates and margins. It's recalculated and verified on the server before any order is created, so it can't be tampered with.

Do my customers need to install anything?

No. The widget runs directly on your storefront. Customers drag in a model and immediately see a live 3D preview and an instant price - no plugins, no account, no waiting.

Is there a free plan?

Yes - the Free plan includes the full quoting widget and 3D preview with a monthly quote allowance. Maker ($15/mo) and Business ($49/mo) add the filament library, precision tiers, recovery tools and the approval queue.

Will it slow down my store?

No. Geometry is analysed in a web worker in the customer's browser, so the heavy lifting never touches your theme's critical path. Files are stored in fast EU object storage.

How much should I charge for 3D printing?

Most makers price a job as material + machine time + margin: filament weight × your price per gram, plus an hourly rate covering printer time and electricity, plus a markup (a common rule of thumb is roughly 3× material cost) to absorb failed prints and labour. Filaquote does this for every quote automatically - it reads the real weight and estimated print time from the model and applies your rates, margins and minimum order value, so your pricing is consistent instead of guessed.

How do I calculate the cost of a 3D print?

Add up four things: material (filament grams × cost per gram), machine time (print hours × your hourly rate, including electricity and wear), labour and post-processing, then a profit margin on top. Doing this by hand for every customer file is slow and error-prone - Filaquote derives the weight, volume and print time straight from the uploaded geometry and returns the finished price instantly.

How do I start a 3D printing service on Shopify?

Set up your store, add a made-to-order or print-on-demand product, define your materials and pricing, and give customers a way to upload their own models and get a price. Filaquote handles that last, hardest part: shoppers drag in an STL, 3MF, STEP or OBJ, see a live 3D preview and an instant quote, and a draft order lands in your Shopify admin - so you can launch a real quoting service without building anything custom.

How do I offer instant quotes instead of emailing customers back and forth?

Replace the "email us your file for a quote" flow with a widget that prices the model on the spot. Customers self-serve a quote in seconds, choose material, colour, infill and quality, and check out - so you wake up to confirmed orders instead of a backlog of quote requests to answer one by one.

Quote every model the moment it lands.

Install Filaquote on your Shopify store and turn "how much?" into a checkout.
