Home-Euler Gives Metal AM Operators Free Real-Time Build Visibility
Icelandic software startupEulerhas released Euler Viewer, a browser-based tool that gives metal 3D printing operators live visibility into their builds at no cost, with no hardware required.
Each laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) build generates thousands of high-resolution images, one after every layer. Until now, that data has had nowhere useful to go. Operators running builds remotely have instead depended on remote desktop software connected to the 3D printer’s control PC, a machine that typically shares a factory network with proprietary build files and sensitive intellectual property. Euler Viewer is designed to make both practices unnecessary.
Secure browser access for live builds
The platform streams powder bed images directly to a browser as a build progresses, built on SOC 2 Type II security controls and requiring no connection to the printer’s control PC. Operators can move through a build layer by layer, share access with colleagues via a link, and for printers that cannot be connected directly, upload build data manually. Euler says setup takes minutes and the platform works with the vast majority of LPBF systems.
According to the startup, Euler Viewer is free. The paid tier adds automated defect detection, predictive failure alerts, statistical process control, and automated build reports. Getting operators onto the free platform first is the cleaner path to selling them the rest.
The company closed a €2 millionseed round in November 2025, co-led byFrumtak VenturesandKvanted, and holds several patent applications in real-time monitoring and failure prediction for additive manufacturing. Its platform has processed millions of build layers across customers in multiple countries.
The wider significance is that build monitoring in metal AM has historically been the domain of expensive, hardware-dependent systems sold as premium add-ons. A software-only tool that requires nothing beyond a browser sets a different baseline for what basic process visibility should cost, and that has implications for how the rest of the monitoring market prices itself.
Bypassing the proprietary machine ecosystem limit
Build monitoring in metal AM has typically required either dedicated hardware or a proprietary machine ecosystem to access.
