PressCal overview

What is PressCal?

PressCal replaces the four tools a print shop runs at once: the spreadsheet that prices jobs, the standalone imposition program, the file explorer full of customer folders, and the inbox where every job starts.

Estimating covers offset and digital on your own equipment. Digital costing offers three models - click charge with consumables included, click charge with toner bought separately, or a full breakdown down to drums, developer, fuser, belt and waste - plus the A4/A3 click threshold most presses apply. Offset costs plates, passes, make-ready and wear per pass. Paper is priced per sheet from your own inventory, and finishing carries its own margin.

Imposition runs seven-plus modes: N-Up, booklet, perfect bound, cut & stack with numbering, gang run, step and repeat, work & turn and tumble. The on-screen preview matches the exported PDF.

Also included: AI email parsing that drafts quote lines, per-item customer approval, a production job board, courier labels, inventory with stock alerts, and the PressKit desktop app for file handling, preflight and press-ready export.

Integrations: Gmail, Google Contacts, Elorus invoicing, five courier APIs.

Security: tenant data is isolated at database level with row-level security, OAuth tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and the Gmail integration has completed Google's OAuth app verification for restricted scopes.
