Obico (formerly The Spaghetti Detective) is an open-source platform that adds AI failure detection and remote access to OctoPrint and Klipper. It's one of the best at exactly that: the AI is good, the free cloud tier lets you try it at no cost, and because it's open-source you can self-host the whole thing for free, with your data staying on your own hardware. For a single maker on a Klipper or OctoPrint setup, it's a genuinely great, principled tool.
What it isn't is a fleet or team management platform, and it doesn't pretend to be. There's no print queue, no cloud slicer, no filament inventory, no maintenance system and no real multi-user teams, and it's native only to OctoPrint and Klipper (Bambu and Duet work through bridges/community plugins). That management layer, across every brand, is what SimplyPrint is. Here's a fair, side-by-side look.
Obico is the best open-source AI failure detection and remote-monitoring tool, especially for self-hosters and the Klipper/OctoPrint maker crowd. Free to self-host, free AI to try on the cloud, and your data stays yours, that's a real, honest advantage we respect.
SimplyPrint is the management platform around the printing. It has AI failure detection too, and adds an AI bed-check, a print queue, AutoPrint continuous printing, a full cloud slicer, filament inventory with NFC and label printing, a maintenance system, multi-user roles with SSO and a school plan, and it runs Bambu, Klipper/Moonraker, Prusa, Marlin, Duet and OctoPrint natively. If you're running a farm or a classroom, that's the layer Obico doesn't try to be.
Gratis para siempre. Sin tarjeta de crédito.
Both platforms watch your prints with AI. The difference is everything around the watching: dispatching jobs, slicing, tracking filament, keeping the fleet running.
Obico is open-source and principled, and for the right user that's exactly right. SimplyPrint is glad to be honest about it:
Obico sits on top of a host you already run, and centres on your account. A farm or a school needs broader hardware support and real users.
Nothing is black-and-white, and there are always pros and cons to consider when choosing a 3D printing cloud solution!
And we're not here to simply tell you, that SimplyPrint is the best - we want you to make an informed decision, and of course there are pros of using Obico as well!

Creamos SimplyPrint porque nada más en el mercado se ajustaba del todo a nuestras necesidades. Queríamos una plataforma fácil de usar, pero que tuviera todas las funciones que necesitábamos. Queríamos una plataforma rica en funciones, intuitiva y fácil de usar, con una gran experiencia de usuario y una innovación real dentro del sector del software de gestión de impresión 3D.
En resumen, creemos, humildes e imparciales como somos 😉, que la plataforma SimplyPrint es una gran alternativa a Obico.
