For embroidery shops
Stop writing orders by hand
ThreadReady is a kiosk your customers use to pick a design, personalize their text and thread colors, and approve a live stitch preview — so you get clean, approved orders instead of scribbled notes.
14-day free trial. No credit card required.
The problem
Manual intake costs you time and money
- ✗Customers describe what they want verbally — details get lost
- ✗You stitch the wrong font, color, or layout and eat the cost
- ✗Back-and-forth emails and phone calls to approve designs
- ✗Handwritten order slips are hard to read and easy to lose
The solution
Let customers design it themselves
- Customers pick from your templates and see a real stitch preview
- They approve the exact design before you start stitching
- Order data flows directly to your production queue
- Every order has a snapshot of what was approved and when
How it works
Three steps from walk-in to production-ready order.
You build templates
Set up your embroidery designs with text fields, font choices, thread palettes, and pricing rules. Publish them to your kiosk when ready.
Customers personalize
On a tablet or any browser, customers type their text, choose a font and thread color, and watch a live stitch preview update in real time.
You review and stitch
Approved orders land in your queue with the exact design snapshot, stitch files, and customer details. Scan a receipt barcode to track progress.
Everything your shop needs
Built specifically for embroidery workflows — not adapted from generic e-commerce.
Live stitch preview
Customers see actual embroidery rendering as they type, not a flat mockup. What they approve is what you stitch.
Embroidery font library
Upload your BX font files, organize size variants into families, and let the system pick the right size automatically.
Thread color palettes
Configure your thread catalog with brand names and hex codes. Customers pick from the colors you actually carry.
Flexible pricing rules
Set base prices, per-character fees, stitch-count add-ons, and conditional modifiers. Pricing updates live as customers design.
Kiosk mode
Auto-resets after inactivity, supports receipt printing, and works on any tablet or touchscreen. Customers can save and resume from home.
Receipt and barcode scanning
Print a receipt with a barcode at the kiosk. Scan it later to pull up the order and move it through your production queue.
Email and SMS proofs
Send design proofs to customers via email or text so they can approve from anywhere — not just at the counter.
Order audit trail
Every approval, edit, and status change is recorded. If there is ever a dispute, you have the receipts.
Production handoff
Push approved orders to TrackMy.Shop or pull them via API. Download stitch files in DST, PES, EXP, JEF, and VP3.

Why it pays for itself
Save 10+ hours a month
If ThreadReady saves you 30 minutes per order on back-and-forth with customers, that adds up to 10+ hours a month on just 20 orders. At a typical shop rate, that time is worth far more than the subscription.
Fewer costly mistakes
Every rejected stitch-out or misread order costs materials, thread, and time. Customers approve a live preview before you thread a single needle. Even preventing 1-2 mistakes a month covers the subscription.
Take orders 24/7
A professional kiosk that lets customers design and approve in real-time means you can accept orders around the clock, not just during business hours. More orders, same staff.
Scale without hiring
Automating order intake, tracking, and customer communication lets you handle more volume without adding staff. Grow your revenue without growing your payroll.
