Products · for apparel decorators

Three tools. All live. All free to start.

These are built specifically for screen print, embroidery and DTF shops — if you clean windows or paint houses, none of this will help you and the services are what you want instead.

Each does a single job properly rather than forty adequately. Use one, use all three, or use none: they work on their own, they don't talk to each other, and none of them requires hiring me.

Pricely

Quote smarter, win more jobs

A pricing calculator that actually knows how decorated apparel is priced. Sixteen pricing engines across screen print, embroidery, DTF, and laser — flat rate, matrix, contract, cost-plus, hourly, stitch tiers, area-based. Build profiles per customer, quote in seconds, and track every job as won or lost with the reason why.

  • 16 pricing engines, 4 decoration methods
  • Win rate, revenue, and contribution margin at a glance
  • AI tier that quotes by chat and drafts your follow-ups

Free · Pro $4.99/mo · Pro AI $9.99/mo

GroupKit

Group orders, finally under control

A coach orders thirty jerseys and every one needs a different size, name, and number. Instead of an email chain and a spreadsheet, you send one link with a passcode. Members submit their own details, pay if you want them to, and you get a production-ready summary. Or run an always-on branded storefront.

  • Shareable order links with passcode protection
  • Persistent pop-up storefronts with your branding
  • Stripe checkout or organizer-pays, CSV straight to production

Packed

Everything between the order and the door

Drag items into boxes, buy discounted USPS, UPS, and FedEx labels per box or all at once, print packing slips on your own template, and send a branded tracking email. Works the same whether you ship it, drive it over, or hand it across the counter.

  • Multi-carrier live rates and bulk label buying
  • Drag-and-drop packing slip and 4×6 label designer
  • REST API and webhooks for Shopify, Etsy, or your own system

Where they came from

Every one started as a Tuesday problem

I run Alpine Apparel Co, a print shop in Castle Rock. Each of these began as something I needed and couldn't buy at a price that made sense for a shop our size, which is also why none of them has features nobody asked for.

They are separate products on purpose. An all-in-one that does quoting, group orders and fulfilment adequately is worse than three things that each do one job properly — and it costs more than most shops want to spend on the two-thirds they never open.

Need something these don't do? That's the other half of what I do — Airtable systems for the way your shop actually runs, and custom applications for the part no software reaches.

The newsletter

Systems that actually support the work

Short, practical notes for people running a shop: what to automate, what to leave alone, and what your software is quietly costing you in time. Written from inside a working print shop, not from a product roadmap.

Not sure which one you need?

All three are free to start, so the cheapest answer is to try the one that sounds closest. If none of them fits, that's usually a sign the problem is specific to your shop — which is a different conversation, and a free one.
