Custom product software: let customers design the product, get a file you can print
Custom product software for stores and print shops: shoppers personalize products, preview them in 3D, and you get print-ready files. 0% commission.
Short answer: Custom product software (also called a product customizer or product customization software) lets shoppers personalize a product on your store, with their own text, artwork, colors and options, and see the result before they buy. Prexaya adds this to Shopify, WooCommerce or any site, previews the product in 3D, and attaches a print-ready file to every order, on flat monthly plans with 0% commission.
Key takeaways
- Shoppers personalize text, images, colors and options on the product page and see every change live.
- A 3D preview shows the finished product from every angle, which answers placement and size questions before checkout.
- Each order includes a production file (300 DPI PDF, SVG or PNG), so your team stops rebuilding customer artwork.
- Flat plans (free Sandbox, $29 Starter, $69 Pro, $199 Enterprise), 0% commission and a 30-day free trial.
What custom product software does
Selling a customizable product by email is slow: the customer describes what they want, someone mocks it up, proofs go back and forth, and the file still needs fixing before it can be printed.
Custom product software moves that work to the customer. They build the design inside limits you set, such as the print area, available colors and materials, and your team receives a finished design instead of a brief.
What to look for in product customization software
Tools in this category differ in what happens after the customer clicks Add to cart. A good fit shows the real product, enforces your production limits, and hands your team a usable file.
- Live preview of the customized product, in 3D where it helps
- Print areas, bleed and safe zones the customer can see while designing
- Low-resolution and out-of-area warnings before the order is placed
- Print-ready output at production resolution, not just a screenshot
- Integration with your store (Shopify, WooCommerce or an API)
- Pricing that does not take a share of every order
How pricing compares
Some customizer tools charge a monthly fee plus a percentage of each order, so the cost rises with your sales. Prexaya uses flat monthly plans with 0% commission.
| Per-order fee tools | Prexaya |
|---|
| Fee per order | A percentage of each sale | 0% |
| Cost as you grow | Rises with volume | Flat monthly plan |
| Print-ready file output | Varies by tool | Included |
| 3D preview | Varies by tool | Included |
Products it works for
Apparel, bags, drinkware, promotional products, packaging, stickers, cards and signage. Any product with defined print areas can be customized, and 3D preview works with products that have a GLB or GLTF model.
How it works
- Choose the products. Add your blanks and set print areas, colors and options.
- Connect your store. Install for Shopify or WooCommerce, or embed with the API.
- Customers personalize. They add text and artwork and preview the result live.
- Print from the attached file. Download the production file from the order.

Frequently asked questions
What is custom product software?

Does Prexaya work with Shopify and WooCommerce?
Yes. There are integrations for both, and custom sites can use the REST API and embed.
Do I need a developer to set it up?
Not for standard setups. You add products and print areas in the admin and connect your store. Custom or headless builds can use the API.
