Our story

Built by makers, for makers.

MakerMind started because every 'printing business' tool on the market either cost £30/month, wanted to sell you a course, or buried the actual numbers behind a sales call. That's not what hobbyists, Etsy sellers and craft-stall makers need.

Free forever, no asterisk

No paid tier. No 'pro' upsell. No locked features. The free plan is the only plan.

Practical, not pretty

Every feature is shaped by an actual problem makers complained about on Reddit, Discord and craft-stall WhatsApp groups.

Honest about data

If a number is estimated, we say so. If a feature needs an integration we don't have yet, we tell you upfront.

Community shaped

Every guide, every formula, every default value is open for feedback. Tell us when we're wrong.

Why free forever?

Most makers are running this as a side hustle out of a spare room. Charging £20/month for a calculator and an order list is absurd — that's two filament rolls a month gone. We'd rather build something the whole community uses than something 500 people pay for grudgingly.

If MakerMind ever needs to make money, it'll come from optional, clearly-marked extras (printable templates, premium guides, sponsored material reviews). The core toolkit stays free. Forever.
