Packaging Dieline Generator
Type in dimensions, get a print-ready packaging dieline drawing
- Problem
- Small-batch packaging makers, handmade sellers and e-commerce merchants need dielines, but professional design software is overkill and back-and-forth with factories is slow. Someone already built a generator that outputs a drawing from dimensions, confirming a clear, frequent small need.
- Solution
- Offer parametric templates for common box types (mailer, tote, lid-and-base, etc.); enter dimensions and paper thickness to generate vector drawings with fold lines, cut lines and bleed, exportable as PDF/SVG with dimensions marked for the print shop.
- Users
- Handmade sellers, small e-commerce shops, packaging designers, print shops
- MVP
- 5 most common box-type templates; parametric generation from dimensions; fold/cut/bleed annotations; PDF and SVG export; paper-thickness compensation presets
- Revenue
- Free basic box types plus subscription for all types and batch export; or pay-per-download
- Why now
- Small-batch e-commerce and handmade brands keep growing, raising demand for personalized packaging. SVG generation is mature enough for a solo developer to ship a vertical tool fast.
