The “Manual Tax” is killing your margins.

5 hours a week on quoting, chasing files, and invoicing. That's over £6,000 a year in lost production time.

Waiting on a developer every time you need a site change
Hours spent calculating custom quotes
Emailing customers to fix resolution, bleed, and colour mode
Manual invoice creation & payment chasing
Your shop is closed when you go home
Maintaining pricing spreadsheets by hand

We built the shop management tool we wished existed

Every feature exists because a real print shop needed it. Not because a product manager added it to a roadmap.

Tick what you sell. We build the rest.

Business cards? Flyers? Posters? Just check the boxes. We create every variant (15 business card options, 12 flyer sizes — the real ones your customers ask for), add product images, and set starting prices based on your margins. You'd spend a weekend doing this on Shopify. Here it takes a few hours.

  • Check the boxes for what you print
  • Every size and finish variant generated — the ones customers actually order
  • Product images included, so you don’t need a photographer on day one
  • Prices calculated from your costs, margins, and sheet sizes
  • Change anything later — nothing is locked in

Your shop, open at 2am

Right now, a customer wants to reorder business cards at 11pm. They can't, because your shop is closed and they'd need to email you. With Thintent, they just go to your site, pick the product, upload their file, and pay. You wake up to the order.

  • Your domain, your branding — looks like your site, not ours
  • Quantity pricing that makes sense for print (100 vs 500 vs 1000)
  • Stripe checkout — customers pay by card, you get paid fast
  • Orders come in while you focus on actually printing things

Protect your margins with a Global Pricing Engine.

Paper and material costs change constantly. Generic e-commerce platforms force you to manually update hundreds of product variants just to protect your margins. Not here.

Update Once, Change Everywhere

Change a sheet cost and every product using that paper recalculates instantly. No hunting through product pages.

Automated Margin Protection

Set your target margins once. When costs change, selling prices adjust automatically to protect your profit.

Zero Matrix Spreadsheets

Quantity tiers, size variants, finish options — all generated from your cost inputs. No more maintaining pricing spreadsheets.

No more “where's my order?” emails

Every order, quote, and invoice in one place. Your customer gets automatic updates. You get a clear pipeline instead of an inbox.

  • Full order history — files, notes, status changes, everything
  • Send a quote, customer approves it, it becomes an order. One click.
  • Print shipping labels from the same screen (Royal Mail, DPD, DHL, Evri)
  • Generate job sheets for the shop floor — no retyping anything
  • Customers get automatic updates so they stop asking you

Stop printing bad files

Every file your customer uploads gets checked automatically — resolution, bleed, colour mode, and more. If something's wrong, they find out before you waste stock and time on a reprint.

  • Checks resolution, bleed, colour mode, and compression quality instantly
  • Problems flagged before you print — not after you’ve wasted the stock
  • One click to ask the customer for a corrected file
  • Set your own standards for each product type
Carbon Tracking

Know the carbon footprint of every print job

Every print job gets a CO2 estimate based on paper weight, printing method, and finishing. It shows up on invoices and order summaries automatically — no extra setup, no guesswork.

  • Automatic CO2 calculation on every order — nothing to configure
  • Broken down by paper, printing, and finishing — not just a single number
  • Shown on invoices and order summaries so your customers see it too
  • Emission factors kept up to date as standards evolve

See what's selling. Bring customers back.

You'll know which products make the most money, which customers reorder, and when your busy months are. Run email campaigns and create discount codes to keep them coming back.

  • Send email campaigns and discount codes from the same dashboard
  • Customers upload print-ready files — no back and forth
  • Know your best sellers, your slow months, and your most loyal customers
  • Every customer’s order history in one place
  • Give your team logins with the right level of access

Frequently asked questions

Thintent is an online shop and business management tool built specifically for print businesses. You sign up, tell us what you print, and you get a working website with your products, prices, and branding — plus order tracking, invoicing, shipping, and marketing tools. No web developer needed.

Any business that produces printed products — digital print, large format, signage, business cards, stickers, labels, packaging, trade printing, and more. The product catalogue comes pre-built for common print products, so you pick what you sell and you’re up and running.

A few hours. You pick the products you sell, we generate the variants and images, you adjust prices, add your branding, and you’re live. It’s a guided setup — no guessing what to do next.

Yes. Connect your own domain so customers see yourbusiness.com, not ours. We walk you through the DNS setup.

Every file is automatically checked for resolution, bleed, and colour mode before it reaches your queue. You can download artwork from the dashboard and generate job sheets for the shop floor. No more chasing customers for print-ready files.

Yes. Stripe for payments, Xero for accounting, and Royal Mail, DPD, DHL, and Evri for shipping. We show real-time rates and print labels from the dashboard.

Your current site probably isn’t built for print. Can your customers pick a paper stock, choose a finish, select a quantity tier, upload a file, and check out? Can you generate a job sheet from that order? Thintent handles the parts that generic website builders don’t.

Your print shop deserves better than email orders and spreadsheets
