Real classrooms run on SimplyPrint
SimplyPrint's very first account was a school. These are real classrooms and labs running their printers from one place - and getting every student printing.
"Before SimplyPrint, our 3D printers were collecting dust. Now everyone can join in, and every teacher has the courage to include it in their teaching." Read their story
"Without the API it maybe would have been some Excel-shenanigans. Without the custom fields? Not a chance." Read their story
Every student print, in one queue
No more students emailing STL files to the teacher, and no more guessing whose print is on the plate. Students submit from any device, the queue keeps track of whose job is whose, and prints start when you say so - approve each one, or let trusted students print themselves.
From Tinkercad to printed, in a few clicks
Students design in Tinkercad and send it straight to SimplyPrint: click Export, then 3D Print, then SimplyPrint - the integration is built into Tinkercad itself. No STL downloads, no USB sticks, nothing to install.
The design lands ready to save, slice in the browser, or drop straight into the class print queue - on a Chromebook or any device. Included on every plan.

Run it your way
Some classes need a teacher's hand on every print. Others thrive when students own the whole process. You choose, per class or user group - and both can run at the same time.
Teacher-led: approve every print
Turn on queue approval and nothing prints without a teacher's say-so: student prints wait in the queue until a teacher approves them. Teachers get their own dashboard of pending prints, and can skip the gate for their own jobs.
Student-led: they print themselves, inside your rules
Students slice in Basic mode with the profiles you approve and start their own prints - after passing your safety course, within their quota. Guardrails, not roadblocks. See how course gating works.

Statistics
See who printed what: jobs, print time and material per student and per printer.
Learn moreThe safety course comes first
Slide-based courses with quizzes run inside the same panel students print from - no separate learning platform. Use the built-in 3D printing courses or author your own, for any grade level.
Assign a blocking safety course and the start-print button stays locked until the student passes the quiz - optionally with a signed attestation on top. Passing can promote them to a more trusted group automatically, and every completion is recorded.

AI watches the printers while you teach
First prints fail - that's part of learning. The AI catches spaghetti and warping early and notifies you, so a failed print doesn't cost an afternoon of class time or a spool of filament.
And don't worry: we do not train our AI on your prints unless you specifically opt in.
