Pricing

A tech pack a factory can quote, for the price of a lunch.

Your first pack is free. After that, pay for the packs you make, or join and make as many as you need. Every pack is checked against the picture, costed, and ready to send.

What a factory needs, and what you need to price it

Checked, not just drafted

The pack is compared with your picture and held to a score before it is sent. If it needs a person, it says so.

A cost you can edit

Unit costs on every material, labour, decoration, packaging, freight and duty. See the landed cost, your margin, and the cost at 500 or 1,000 units.

PDF and Excel

A print-ready pack and one workbook with a sheet for materials, measurements, colourways, SKUs and cost. Or any sheet as CSV.

Factory-ready sizes

Measurements with tolerances, in inches and centimetres, graded across your size run.

Pantone and parts

Colourways matched to Pantone and applied part by part, with artwork placement.

Your costs stay yours

When a pack goes to a factory through us, it carries the spec only. Your retail price and unit costs are left off.

Questions

Before you start

Is the first pack really free?

Yes. Your first pack is free, with no card. If the assistant cannot read your photo, that does not use it up: we ask for a better picture.

What do I get for $48 that I do not get free?

The same pack, for every product after the first. The price is per pack, so a product with a few revisions is still one pack.

Do the packs go to a factory for me?

You can download the pack and send it to any factory yourself. If you would rather we send it to the right factories, compare their quotes and run samples, that is a project with us.

Can I open it in Excel?

Yes. Every pack downloads as one workbook, or as CSV for any sheet. When we send a pack to a factory, your retail price and your costs are left out.

Is the cost estimate a quote?

No. It is your own arithmetic: unit costs you enter, added up with freight and duty. A factory's quote replaces it.
