Built for Label Converting

The MIS
built for label converting

Die plates, roll counts, overs, run length, step-and-repeat — the things a commercial-offset MIS has no field for. InFlight quotes, schedules, costs and bills around how a label shop actually runs.

The Full Picture

Time is only part of what you recover

The calculator above covers labor. These are the other places InFlight stops money from walking out the door.

Uncharged Fees
Manual pricing misses charges. InFlight enforces every cost line automatically — substrate, press time, makeready, ink, laminate, prepress. Nothing falls off the ticket.
Reprint Prevention
Preflight catches die fit, bleed, and file issues before the job hits press. Reprints cost 15–20% of a job's value and kill your margin. Catching one a month pays for the subscription.
Material Waste
Low-stock alerts and automatic inventory deduction on job completion prevent emergency buys, over-ordering, and mid-run shortages that stop a press and cost far more than the material itself.
Faster Payments
Invoices generate automatically when a job closes. Customers pay online through the portal. Less time in AR, less chasing, and cash in your account days sooner than a mailed invoice cycle.

† ShopVox publishes PRO at $249/mo plus $49/user/mo, and onboarding packages starting at $499. Add-ons are extra and are also published: Inventory Management $299/mo + $999 setup, Webhooks $250/mo. Total cost varies by configuration. ‡ Amtech Software publishes no pricing, licensing terms or trial for Label Traxx anywhere on its site — checked 1 August 2026. Earlier versions of this table cited an industry-reported range for a base licence plus annual maintenance. That figure has been removed: it was not attributable to the vendor or to any source we could point at, and a number we cannot stand behind does not belong in a comparison next to our own published price. § labeltraxx.com now redirects to amtechsoftware.com — Label Traxx is part of Amtech Software's portfolio, and Amtech lists cloud hosting as an available service. Competitor pricing and terms were re-checked against each vendor's own site on 1 August 2026 and may have changed since. Visit each vendor's website for current pricing. Where a vendor publishes nothing, this table says so rather than guessing.

FAQ

Common questions

Straight answers. No runaround.

Your trial gives you full Team-level access for 30 days — including die plate connector, AutoStep imposition, and QuickBooks sync — with no credit card required. After that, choose a plan to continue. All your data stays exactly where it is. If you don't subscribe, your account drops to Free (preflight checks only) and nothing is deleted.
No contracts. Month-to-month plans cancel at the end of the current billing period. Annual plans are billed upfront at 20% off and renew automatically at the same rate — Stripe sends a receipt on every charge. Cancel before your renewal date and you won't be charged again.
Solo includes 5 seats. Team includes 10 seats — enough for a full crew across sales, prepress, press, and shipping. Studio is unlimited. There are never any per-seat fees on any plan.
Solo has the full MIS: work orders, job costing, estimates, invoicing, proofs, time clock, inventory, and analytics. Team adds the label shop power tools: die plate connector and plate fit analysis, AutoStep file imposition engine, and QuickBooks Online sync. If you run a label converter, you want Team.
Yes, this is the primary target. The WO builder understands roll label production: plate fit analysis, die plate connector, unwind direction, overs, roll count math, slitting, rewinding, lamination. These are first-class features, not bolt-ons. Commercial print, wide format, and decorated items are also fully supported.
PrintSmith is a legacy system built for commercial offset, not label converters — and it's quote-only for pricing. ShopVox PRO starts around $249/mo base (plus $49/seat/mo per-user fees and required add-on modules) — a real 5-person shop with inventory tracking and integrations can run $700+/mo. PrePressOS includes everything at a flat rate, built from scratch with label shop workflows and modern UX.
