Obico

Obico is an open-source, all-in-one smart 3D printing platform for makers that lets you monitor and control your 3D printers from anywhere so you can keep tabs on what's happening and get alerts when things go wrong.

Obico is designed to make 3D printing easier by letting you monitor and control your printers remotely. With Obico, you can:

• Monitor & Control from Anywhere: See what's happening with your prints, watch the livestream, and control every aspect of your 3D printer from any device.
• Catch Hazards Early: See issues in real-time to avoid equipment damage and waste.
• Get Printer Status Notifications: Get updates and alerts through multiple channels so you don't have to constantly check.
• Save Time & Money: AI-powered failure detection stops prints early to avoid waste and protect your equipment.

Obico is designed to be compatible with a variety of platforms, including OctoPrint, Fluidd and Mainsail. Users can either self-host Obico or use the Obico Cloud option for flexibility and customization. The self-hosted option gives you full control and hackability, but the Obico Cloud option is designed to be easy to use and offers professional maintenance.

The platform also comes with mobile apps for both iOS and Android. You can stream high-definition webcam video and get real-time updates on print status. You can customize notification settings and integrate with third-party apps like Mobileraker.

Obico offers a free plan for occasional use and a Pro plan starting at $4 per month. The Pro plan offers more features and support for heavy use.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced maker, Obico can help you get more out of 3D printing with a monitoring system that's reliable, easy to use and smart.
