How It Works

The calculator is built to shorten the path from visitor to qualified print inquiry without forcing you into a custom integration project.

1. Embed the calculator

Copy one iframe snippet and place it on your website, landing page, or custom customer portal.

2. Let customers upload STL files

Visitors choose a print profile, upload their model, and get a fast estimate before sending the request.

3. Handle inquiries in Printerhive

Every request appears in your dashboard, where you can review the model, track status, and follow up without spreadsheet chaos.

Configure the Calculator for Your Business

Set the language, theme, minimum order value, and customer-facing messages so the widget matches your workflow instead of fighting it.

  • Light theme preview and generated iframe URL
  • Business-specific minimum order threshold
  • Custom confirmation messages for Czech and English customers
  • Fast setup directly from the Printerhive admin

  • 3D model preview for quick review
  • Status pipeline from new to resolved
  • A clean handoff between quoting and production
