In their own words
Packdroid
Packdroid generates packaging dielines from standards-based templates and lets users inspect designs in 2D and 3D. Its catalogue lists 248 templates across FEFCO, ECMA, rigid-box, and bag families. Users can place artwork on a flat dieline and view it wrapped around a folded package in 3D, then export production dielines as SVG, PDF, or DXF. The Developer API takes a template code and dimensions and returns one of those file formats for workflows such as web-to-print, ERP jobs, or quoting tools. API request limits vary by plan: Bench allows 10 per minute and 200 per day, Workshop 20 per minute and 1,000 per day, and Line 30 per minute and 5,000 per day. New accounts start free and can inspect any template's full 2D dieline; for the first 5 days, they can also download four branded cut files from DEMO templates. Paid plans start at $9.00 per month: Bench includes 45 monthly downloads, Workshop 90 and 3D folding, and Line unlimited downloads and 3D folding. Before mass production, Packdroid advises checking final dimensions, tolerances, tooling, and material behavior with a packaging manufacturer.
