The PODPilot Solution

Built by POD operators, for POD operators

We know the pain of managing Print on Demand operations across multiple platforms. PODPilot Apps exists to eliminate the friction.

We built the ecosystem we always wished we had. Every feature is grounded in real-world merchant pain.

Catches the order that shouldn’t ship

Most orders should auto-approve. The one that shouldn’t is the one that costs you. PODPilot flags it before it goes out.

Shows the cost Shopify hides

Shopify’s profit report drops any order with no cost set, and never sees your Printify shipping. PODPilot tracks both.

Lives where you already work

Printify status, costs, and reprints on the Shopify order page. Not another dashboard to manage.

Chris Ledden

Founder, PODPilot Apps

Chris builds the mission-critical tools he needs to run his own 7-figure Printify business. With 35 years of development experience, including 8 years as a senior leader at Amazon, he has seen how the world’s largest e-commerce operations scale.

He built PODPilot to bring that same operational rigor to the POD world. He pairs hands-on merchant experience with high-scale engineering to close the gap between standard e-commerce and the reality of running a Print on Demand brand.
