Sell custom manufacturing on Shopify with instant quotes
The SeekMake app on the Shopify App Store lets your store sell made-to-order manufacturing. Customers upload STEP, STL, DXF and more files, choose options and get a price from your rules, so custom parts sell like any other product.
Shopify works well for catalogue items like spare parts or standard fixtures, but custom work does not fit a fixed product price. Manufacturers often end up with a contact page for anything made to order. The SeekMake app lets the same store price uploaded files from your rules, so custom jobs and stock products can live in one shop.
