Product Manager
Version v17.0.17 2026-06-17

Feature Overview

Every feature connects to a real production moment.

The public site walks through the actual screens behind the workflow: customer tracking, branded timelapse video, Scarlet device status, materials, spare parts, filament, workbench development, production boards, Etsy competition scoring, and product catalog management.

Etsy Competition Scoring

Review the Market Before Pricing Decisions

Each product can store Etsy search keywords as comma-separated full phrases. SnakeEyes searches those phrases, combines the matching listings, de-duplicates competitors, and calculates the product’s competition score from the resulting market snapshot.

The review table shows which search phrase found each listing. Admins can choose how many competitors to show, including all saved competitors when deeper review is needed.

Listings that do not actually match the product can be suppressed so they stop affecting future score calculations, then restored later if needed.

Why it matters: pricing conversations can use a visible competitor set instead of guessing from a one-time manual search.

Customer Engagement

Show Customers Their Order Being Made

The public order tracking page gives customers a more meaningful experience than a simple status message. They can enter a JC’s Toybox order number or Etsy order ID with their ZIP code and follow the order through the production lifecycle.

When the order is completed, captured print media can be shown directly on the tracking page. The customer sees progress, sees which named device helped create the item, and can watch the timelapse video.

Why it matters: a completed order becomes a customer engagement moment, not just a transaction closeout.

Devices & Scarlet

Connect Real Devices to Real Orders

Devices can be named, given icons, mapped to generic production requirements, and linked to Scarlet / Bambu Hub status. Live previews and job state help the shop understand what each device is doing.

Because devices are assigned to order components, SnakeEyes can connect the device name to production fun facts and timelapse association.

Why it matters: the device fleet becomes both an operational asset and part of the customer story.

Production Boards

Move Components Through the Build

Orders inherit product components and move through stages such as not started, in production, QA / assembly, and completed. Each component can be assigned to an actual device, making it clear where the work is happening.

The component board, order progress bar, and active device queues help the team see what is blocked, what is moving, and what is ready for the next step.

Why it matters: complex orders stay organized even when different parts run on different devices.

Materials Management

Plan Orders Around Real Inventory

Materials can be created once, linked to product components, and tracked through available, pending, used, supplier, cost, location, unit, reorder point, and notes.

This lets order readiness depend on the material library instead of a manual shelf check. Material reconciliation provides a focused place for correcting counts and keeping inventory aligned with production activity.

Why it matters: the system can tell you whether an order is ready to build before work starts.

Inventory Workflow

Reserve, Consume, and Return Stock

Tracked material follows the order lifecycle. Material can move into pending use when an order is created, move to used when the order is completed, and return to availability when an order is canceled or deleted.

This keeps production planning and inventory state from drifting apart over time.

Why it matters: canceled or changed orders do not quietly trap material in the wrong status.

Spare Parts

Track Maintenance Inventory by Device

Spare parts and maintenance tracking belong close to the device they support. Device history gives the shop a maintenance-oriented view of runtime, successful jobs, failed jobs, success rate, and service notes.

This makes it easier to understand when a printer, cutter, or workstation may need attention before production is impacted.

Why it matters: shop equipment gets its own maintenance and parts workflow instead of being hidden in generic materials.

Filament Management

See Spools by Type, Color, and Status

The filament site tracks total, usable, open, sealed, and empty spool counts. Visual inventory groups spools by filament type and color, while the all-spools view supports searching, filtering, and lifecycle actions.

Filament data can sync into Product Manager so materials readiness reflects real spool availability.

Why it matters: filament planning becomes a production readiness input, not an after-the-fact discovery.

Filament Catalog

Keep the Color Library Clean

The filament catalog provides editable material types, colors, and hex values. As new Bambu colors or shop-specific naming conventions appear, the catalog can be updated so inventory remains searchable and visually useful.

Why it matters: good catalog data makes inventory faster to find and easier to sync into production planning.

Workbench

Develop Ideas Before They Become Products

The workbench gives early concepts a structured place to mature. Ideas can track components, material links, device iterations, build settings, test outcomes, notes, and results.

When an idea is ready, successful work can be promoted into a production product without losing the learning captured during development.

Why it matters: prototype history becomes reusable production knowledge.

Product Catalog

Organize Repeatable Products

Products store catalog details, images, product lines, categories, inventory visibility, cost/margin context, and order creation actions.

Multiple catalog views make it easier to search, group, and manage products as the shop grows.

Why it matters: repeatable product structure keeps order creation consistent and reduces setup time.
