Your Elegoo printer, run by your AI.

Ask ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, Grok or any MCP agent for a part. Kiln designs it, checks it will print, and runs it on your Elegoo, from the Centauri Carbon to the OrangeStorm Giga.

What your agent can do with your Elegoo

  • The Centauri Carbon, directly

    Kiln talks to the Centauri Carbon over your network with no password to set up, and can open its live camera for you.

  • Neptune 4 and OrangeStorm Giga

    These run Klipper, and Kiln connects to them over your own network.

  • Older Neptunes

    The Neptune 3 works through OctoPrint or a USB cable from a computer nearby.

Kiln knows each machine’s real limits, material by material. Ask your agent before you buy a spool.

Setting it up

Kiln runs on a computer on the same network as your printer, or one it is plugged into by USB.

Free and Pro run one printer at a time; you can own several and switch between them. To run several at once, see Kiln for print farms.

Questions

Does Kiln need Elegoo’s app or cloud?

No. Kiln talks to the printer on your own network, or over USB.

Will it print without asking me?

No. Kiln shows you the model, then waits for your yes before every print. You can say yes for the next two hours or the rest of the day so it stops asking for a while, and you can turn on auto-print yourself. Auto-print is off unless you turn it on.

Which AI apps does it work with?

ChatGPT, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, Grok, or any app that speaks MCP. On chatgpt.com, claude.ai, gemini.google.com and grok.com, the Kiln connector designs, checks and prices parts; to run your own printer, install Kiln on the computer next to it.
