Pricing calculator · web app
Know what to charge for every print.
Drop in your sliced file. Profit Studio counts the filament, the printer, the power, your time, the failed prints, the box and every Etsy fee, then tells you the price that actually pays you.
The idea
The plastic is the cheap part.
On the sample articulated dragon, filament is $3.89. Your time, the printer, the box, Etsy’s fees and the shipping you cover add up to more than four times that. Price the plastic and you work for free.
Profit Studio works the other way round: tell it the profit you want, and it gives you the price to list at, after every fee, including the fees Etsy charges on shipping.
- Filament$3.89
- Printer and power$2.19
- Your time$6.25
- Box and tissue$1.10
- Etsy fees$4.94
- Shipping you cover$2.70
- You keep$11.92

Price ladder
Know your wholesale price.
A shop asks for 25. What do you charge? The ladder draws every price to the same scale and warns you when wholesale is set so high a shop would undercut your own Etsy listing.
- Quantity breaks that never go below your minimum profit
- Market and craft-fair prices with the card-reader fee
- Printer time for every order size
The fee nobody counts
What an Offsite Ad really costs.
When a sale comes through one of Etsy’s ads, Etsy takes another 15% of the item and the shipping. One box shows what you’d keep, for any print.
What you keep on a $32.99 dragon.
Set prices that can survive it.

Questions
Good to know.
Which slicers does it read?
Sliced .3mf projects from Bambu Studio and Orca Slicer, .gcode from Bambu Studio, Orca, PrusaSlicer and Cura, and Prusa .sl1 resin files. For Chitubox or Lychee resin files, type the print time and ml from the slicer’s summary.
Does it do resin printing?
Yes. Switch to Resin and amounts are in millilitres at your price per litre, with a box for IPA, gloves and towels, and as many models on the plate as you print.
Does it connect to my Etsy shop?
No. It never signs in to anything. You type or import your numbers, and nothing is uploaded. Etsy’s fee rates are built in and you can edit them.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes, on iPhone, Android, tablets and computers, in Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox. Add it to your Home Screen and it opens like an app.
Can I try it first?
Yes. The free preview has a sample print shop, and you can type in your own numbers to price a print. You need the unlock code to save them.
