Frequently Asked Questions
Is local printing really free?
Yes. Kiln is open source (AGPL-3.0). Local printing, slicing, and printer control are free forever with no limits on print volume.
What is a fulfillment order?
When you outsource manufacturing through Craftcloud via Kiln. Local printing to your own printers does not count.
Can I self-host everything?
Yes. Kiln runs entirely locally. Pro/Business/Enterprise tiers add optional cloud features, but free tier local basic functionality never requires a subscription.
Do I need a paid plan for multiple printers?
Free and Pro tiers each support 1 printer. Business includes 3 printers ($15/mo per additional, up to 50). For larger fleets, Enterprise is custom-quoted.
What's the difference between Pro and Business?
Pro is for hobbyists and personal projects — single user, single printer, not for prints sold for revenue. Business is for anyone running a real operation: Etsy shops, Shopify stores, custom-order businesses, agencies, schools, manufacturers. Business adds multi-printer fleet management, team seats, QR codes, and the workflow features small shops actually need. (Both tiers are subscription plans for the hosted product — separate from the AGPL-alternative licensing covered below.)
What does annual billing save?
Annual plans save roughly 20% compared to monthly. Pro drops from $49/mo to $39/mo ($468/yr). Business drops from $199/mo to $159/mo ($1,908/yr). Enterprise pricing is custom — annual savings are part of the conversation. You can switch between monthly and annual at any time.
What's included in Enterprise?
Enterprise is for teams running production print operations — manufacturing, regulated industries, large fleets. It includes a dedicated single-tenant MCP server, SSO, role-based access control, full audit trails, lockable safety profiles, on-prem or VPC deployment options, dedicated CSM, and a 99.9% uptime SLA. Pricing is tailored per deal — contact us for a quote that fits your team and use case.
Can I try Enterprise before committing?
Yes. Email adam@kiln3d.com and we'll set you up with full Enterprise access to evaluate.
Need a non-AGPL license to use Kiln in proprietary code?
Different from the subscription tiers above. Kiln is open source under AGPL-3.0, which requires that derivative works and networked services built on Kiln also be open-sourced. If your company needs to use Kiln in proprietary products without AGPL obligations, we offer an AGPL commercial license (a dual-licensing alternative — not a subscription tier). Contact adam@kiln3d.com to discuss.
