STOREFRONT
Product, quantity, artworkWeb-to-print + shop operations / one system
Sell print online.Run the shop in the same system.
OutputLoop is a branded web-to-print storefront and print-shop operating system. Customers configure, upload, approve, pay, track, and reorder online. Your team receives one complete job record for quoting, proofing, scheduling, production, fulfillment, and follow-up.
One order should stay one order.
A storefront bolted to a separate MIS is still two systems.
OutputLoop keeps the product, price, artwork, approval, payment, due date, route, status, files, and customer history attached from the first quote to the next reorder. Staff stop rebuilding the same job in every department.
The data lost between systems

Sell what the shop canactually produce.
The product rules customers use online are the rules your team uses to quote, proof, schedule, produce, and fulfill. No export, duplicate entry, or separate customer truth is required.
Sell only what the shop can produce.
Customers choose valid combinations of size, material, finishing, quantity, artwork, and turnaround.
24 panels · matte vinyl · contour cut
Production-valid choices at checkout.
Files, approval, payment, and schedule on the job.
One history for customer, CSR, prepress, and production.
Core, extended, and controlled
The storefront and shop floor share the same job.
OutputLoop covers the work that should share data and connects specialist systems, such as accounting and carrier services, where they already do the job well.
A storefront grounded in production.
Branded storefronts, product configuration, customer accounts, quotes, artwork upload, checkout, payment, order status, and reorders.
Artwork and approvals attached to the job.
Structured intake, file checks, missing-information requests, proof versions, customer approval, payment state, and production-ready files.
One live operating record.
Quotes, digital job jackets, a basic production board, fulfillment, and permanent job history.
Coordinate the work beyond a basic board.
Production scheduling, capacity, departments, assignments, tasks, alerts, barcodes, inventory, purchasing, and advanced reporting.
The customer record remembers the work.
Customer history, saved specifications, status updates, repeat-order paths, follow-up, and standard operational reporting.
Connect the systems worth keeping.
Account pricing, accounting, shipping, email, storage, CRM, webhooks, API access, roles, and custom workflow rules.
See the operation across locations.
Planned multi-location routing, multiple brands, consolidated reporting, SSO, audit controls, and scoped integrations.
Founding release is in active pilot. Final feature availability and migration scope are confirmed in each implementation plan.
OutputLoop Mobile / in development
The floor does not sit at a desk.
Native iOS and Android apps will put the live production queue, job status, files, customer messages, approvals, tasks, alerts, and team activity in your pocket. Managers can clear exceptions without trying to run desktop prepress from a phone.

AI where it removes a task
Let AI read and draft. Keep production under rules.
AI Assist is off by default and never required to run the shop. It can interpret unstructured requests and prepare work for review; deterministic checks and your permissions still control pricing, proofs, payment, and production status.
Turn an email or request into structured job details.
Identify missing specifications and production risks.
Condense job history, artwork notes, and customer threads.
Prepare replies, follow-ups, and product copy for review.
Ask operational questions across permitted shop data.
AI usage is billed separately at provider cost plus 30%, with an itemized ledger, role controls, and a monthly cap set by the shop.
A transparent consolidation model
Replace the overlap, not the systems that already work.

Public annual-billing prices checked August 6, 2026. Products overlap but are not equivalent. Estimates exclude tax, payment processing, carrier charges, optional AI, storage add-ons, and the value or cost of implementation. Labor-capacity value is time made available for other work, not cash savings unless staffing spend changes. This is a planning model, not a savings guarantee.
Three operating levels
Start with the system your shop can use.
Annual rates use a 12-month term. Flexible monthly rates remain month-to-month after implementation. Both are billed monthly. Founding rates require a 12-month initial term, billed monthly; the 24-month price protection is not a 24-month service commitment.

OutputLoop adds no percentage to orders. Payment processor and carrier charges remain separate.
Included by plan. Additional active storage is $49 per 1 TB each month.
Optional usage is metered at provider cost plus 30%, with a shop-controlled monthly cap.
A 12-month initial term is billed monthly. Price is protected for 24 months, then stays 15% below the current annual list rate while service remains continuous.
Prices are USD before tax. Setup covers the stated implementation scope; complex data cleanup, unusual migrations, custom development, hardware, and third-party fees are quoted separately. Native app availability is a forward-looking product commitment, not a currently shipped feature.
The setup fee launches a working system
Configured around the way your shop produces.
Implementation covers workflow discovery, catalog and pricing setup, storefront branding, agreed migration, integrations, testing, staff training, and go-live support.

WORKSTATUS / IN BUILD
Built first inside an operating print shop
Tested against real orders, files, and deadlines.
The pilot is validating the product catalog, storefront, shared order record, and production workflow under real shop conditions. We are measuring manual touches, quote-to-order time, proof revisions, and repeat-order time before publishing claims.
Baseline and post-launch data must agree before any performance number becomes a public claim.

The first shops help set the standard
One connected system.Built with working shops.
Founding shops receive guided migration, direct access to the product team, priority influence on the roadmap, and protected subscription pricing. The cohort stays small because every installation is configured, tested, and launched with the shop.
