How it works for suppliers

Sign up once. Get matched forever.

01
Register in under 5 minutes

Create your account, enter your company info, and upload your equipment list — PDF, image, or spreadsheet. Our AI parses every press, folder, cutter, and binder automatically.

02
We verify your capabilities

AI extracts and normalizes your equipment — press type, max sheet size, color units, GSM range, duplex capability, and finishing. You review and confirm. Unknown models are researched automatically.

03
Jobs find you

When a buyer's job passes all 10 of your capability gates, it lands in your dashboard with a pre-set price and an AI summary of why you matched. No bidding — just Accept or Pass. You have 48 hours from invitation to respond.

04
Produce, proof, get paid

Upload your proof, manage author's alterations in-platform, message the buyer in the job's chat thread, and mark production complete. Stripe Connect transfers funds automatically. The buyer chooses how they pay — when they're on Net 45 ACH, your job settles 10 / 15 / 75 (75% lands 45 days post-delivery); when they pay by card, your job settles 10 / 90 with no Net terms.

Why suppliers choose PrintAxis

More jobs. Less overhead. Guaranteed.

No sales effort required

Your equipment does the selling. Register once and get matched to jobs automatically — no cold calls, no RFQ hunting, no lowball bidding.

Fair, pre-set pricing

Prices are set by AI — not by the lowest bidder. You see your price upfront before you accept. No guesswork, no undercutting.

Predictable payouts

Stripe Connect transfers funds the moment each milestone fires. The schedule depends on the buyer's chosen payment method — Net 45 ACH jobs pay 10 / 15 / 75 (final 75% lands 45 days post-delivery); card jobs pay 10 / 90, settled by delivery with no Net terms. You don't choose; you just see which one applies on each invitation.

Jobs matched to your equipment

You only see jobs your shop can actually produce. 10 capability gates filter by sheet size, color units, duplex, paper weight, finishing, and delivery region.

In-platform proof management

Upload proofs, handle buyer change requests, and price author's alterations — all tracked in one place. No more proof emails getting lost in inboxes.

Your Stripe dashboard, your money

Stripe Express gives you full visibility into transfers, payouts, and history. Funds move directly to your bank — PrintAxis never holds your money.

Mailing services welcome

Add mailing services to your capabilities and earn the production margin plus the postage pass-through. Full mailing-job lifecycle is supported — CASS/NCOA, presort, USPS facility entry, the works.

Win on proximity

Buyers see your distance and shipping carbon right next to your price. Closer means a Lower-tier carbon badge — a real edge over far-away competitors when the buyer's procurement scorecard rewards lower Scope 3 emissions or sustainable sourcing.

Real-time buyer chat

Every awarded job has its own chat thread. Reply to proof revisions, address changes, or rush questions in seconds — no email tag, no missed updates. Both sides see the full history.

Unknown presses, auto-researched

If you upload a press model that isn't in our catalog yet, our AI researches the manufacturer, parses the spec sheet, and adds it automatically — flagged for your review with a confidence score. You're never blocked because you have an unusual machine.

How leads find you

When a buyer's job has no in-network match, our AI Discovery Engine searches the web for qualified printers and invites them to the platform — with the job already waiting. That's how new suppliers land their first PrintAxis lead before they've spent a dollar on marketing.

If a buyer payment hits a snag

Honest answer: because Stripe routes funds buyer → PrintAxis → you, a failed buyer charge does delay that milestone's payout. But you're not on the hook for chasing it — we auto-retry the charge, send the buyer a recovery link, and escalate to a human if it still doesn't clear. You get notified at every step. The job never stalls because of a payment hiccup.


AI equipment parsing

Upload your equipment list. We handle the rest.

Just send us your press list — PDF, image, or spreadsheet. Our AI identifies every model, extracts capabilities, and maps it to our catalog. Unknown models get researched on the web automatically.

  • Accepts PDF equipment lists, images, and spreadsheets
  • AI identifies press type, max sheet, color units, GSM range, duplex
  • Confidence scores displayed — HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW per item
  • Inline editing for corrections before going live
  • Unknown models researched and auto-inserted with review flag
