Spoolytics – AI-powered filament tracker for 3D print farms

I built a minimalist web app to help makers and small 3D print farms track filament usage and avoid unexpected outages.

Upload an STL file → the app auto-estimates filament needed (g/meters) using bounding box & volume → updates inventory → suggests when to reorder based on usage trends.

Clean dashboard with a print job list, inventory, and AI restock alerts + CRM. I use OpenAI's API and basic STL volume parsing (numpy-stl).

Would love feedback from makers, devs, and anyone automating physical workflows.
