3YOURMIND is additive manufacturing (3D printing) workflow software built to help manufacturers identify which parts are good candidates for on-demand production and then manage that production across a distributed network of machines and service partners. The platform is organized around two core products: Part Identification, an AI-powered tool that screens part catalogs to surface high-potential candidates for 3D printing, and Distributed Manufacturing, a manufacturing-intelligence module that automates on-demand ordering and part production once a candidate part is approved. The company also offers an on-premises infrastructure option for customers with strict security and data-residency requirements. 3YOURMIND was founded by Aleksander Ciszek and Stephan Kühr while studying at the Technical University in Berlin, after they identified a gap between additive manufacturing's capabilities and engineers' day-to-day knowledge of it. Today the company operates dual headquarters in Berlin, Germany (product and operations) and Novi, Michigan, USA (commercial headquarters, with a focus on defense and oil & gas customers), and it is resold in the U.S. federal market by Phillips Corporation. On the technical side, 3YOURMIND connects to more than 30 3D-printing machines from over ten hardware vendors (including HP, EOS and Stratasys) and integrates with enterprise systems such as SAP, PTC Creo, PTC Windchill and Siemens Teamcenter via a REST API, CSV import/export, an OPC/UA machine standard, single sign-on, and connectors for Zapier and Microsoft Power Automate. The company positions the platform for both large enterprises and small-to-medium manufacturers looking to decentralize production, cut inventory and warehousing costs, and reduce downtime from part shortages.
Key Features
Part Identification — AI-powered software that screens part catalogs and CAD/PLM data to surface high-potential candidates for on-demand 3D-printed manufacturing.
Distributed Manufacturing — Manufacturing-intelligence software that automates on-demand ordering and production of approved parts across internal machines and outside service bureaus.
On-Premises Infrastructure — Enterprise deployment option for customers with strict security and data-residency requirements, positioned as meeting high security and data-protection standards.
Open API & Automation — REST API webhooks, CSV import/export, the OPC/UA machine standard, single sign-on, and connectors for Zapier and Microsoft Power Automate for centralizing workflows.
Enterprise System Connectors — Native integrations with SAP, PTC Creo, PTC Windchill and Siemens Teamcenter to connect production decisions to existing PLM/ERP systems.
Machine Connectivity — Direct connectivity to more than 30 3D-printing machines from over ten hardware vendors, including HP, EOS and Stratasys.
Pros & Cons
Pros
AI-powered Part Identification module helps teams quickly screen large part catalogs for on-demand manufacturing candidates instead of doing it manually.
Broad enterprise integrations out of the box — SAP, PTC Creo, PTC Windchill, Siemens Teamcenter, plus a REST API, Zapier and Microsoft Power Automate connectors — ease adoption inside existing engineering workflows.
Connects to 30+ 3D-printing machines across ten-plus hardware vendors (including HP, EOS and Stratasys), reducing lock-in to a single machine brand.
Over a decade of focus specifically on additive manufacturing workflow software, with dual Berlin/Michigan operations supporting both European and U.S. defense and industrial customers.
Cons
Pricing isn't publicly disclosed anywhere on the site, so buyers can't compare cost without contacting sales.
The platform is split into separate products (Part Identification, Distributed Manufacturing, plus on-premises infrastructure), so getting the full workflow may mean licensing more than one module.
Marketing and case studies lean heavily toward large enterprise and defense/industrial customers, which may make evaluation harder for very small manufacturers.
