SoulCrafted Slicer review
A local-first resin slicer for Windows and Linux, with core tools but no automatic supports yet.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
SoulCrafted Slicer is an experimental desktop slicer for resin 3D printers, aimed at people who want a local workflow on Windows or Linux. It imports STL, OBJ, and 3MF models, lets users select printer and resin profiles, and prepares printer files in .goo and .ctb formats. The project is open source under AGPLv3 and processes files locally without requiring an account. Its stated fit is strongest for solo users and small teams comfortable working with alpha software.
The current feature set covers several steps between model import and file export: anti-aliasing for sliced layers, mesh repair tools, and model transformation tools, alongside printer and resin profiles. That gives users practical controls for preparing resin prints without an account-based workflow. The scope is not yet a complete resin preparation suite, however. Automatic supports and hollowing are listed as forthcoming, so users who depend on those operations should look for a slicer that already provides them rather than assume they are part of this release.
The alpha status is the main trade-off. Windows and Linux builds are available, while macOS is not built, which narrows its platform fit. Community and documentation are the listed support channels, rather than a described commercial support route. Choose SoulCrafted Slicer if local processing, open-source licensing, and its current import, repair, transform, and export tools match your workflow and you can tolerate experimental software. It is a weaker choice if you need automatic supports or hollowing now, a macOS build, or a more mature product experience.
