Printbed
Know what's left on every spool — and the settings that made the print work
Add your filament spools with brand, material, colour and starting weight, then log each print with grams, hours, result and a settings note. Printbed decrements the spool for you and warns you before you run dry. Free, no install, no printer connection.

What you can do in Printbed on the web
Spools that decrement themselves
Every logged print subtracts its grams from the spool, so the card always shows real grams left — no lifting a spool onto the kitchen scale mid-job.
Metres left, not just grams
Printbed converts the remaining weight into metres of 1.75 mm filament using the real density of PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU, ASA, Nylon and resin, so you know whether a 200 g print will fit.
A print journal with the settings that worked
Model name, grams, hours and minutes, success / partial / fail, and the free-text note with your temperature, speed, walls and supports — the note you want at 11pm when it fails again.
Cost per print
Give a spool its price and Printbed works out the cost per gram and what each print actually cost in filament.
Stats that show the truth
Success-rate donut, prints per week, filament by material, hours on the bed and a spool inventory ranked by what is left — the bottom of that list is your reorder list.
Low-spool warnings and a material guide
Set your own low threshold, and keep the nozzle/bed starting window for every material one tap away in Settings.

Try it with sample data: Loads six spools — Hatchbox PLA, Polymaker PLA, eSUN PETG, Sainsmart TPU, MatterHackers ABS and Priline ASA — and twenty prints across three months, including a failed phone stand and its successful retry, so the spools, the success rate and the low-stock warning all read like a real workshop. You can start fresh at any time.
