When design is the product, the people at the screens need the file, the prescription and the due date — and nothing about what the case is worth. SimpleLabOS seals that off in the database, not just in the menu.
SimpleLabOS is cloud dental lab software with a Designer role that is limited to the cases assigned to that designer: no prices, no invoices, no product or price list, no other designer's queue. STL, PLY and OBJ files preview in the browser up to 100MB, a whole case downloads as one ZIP, the CAD-design items can be added to the QC checklist, and each account is billed per unit with one monthly bill — from $29/month with $0 setup and no annual contract.

Files go out over shared drives and chat, the prescription is pasted into a message, and the only thing stopping a designer from seeing your prices is that nobody has clicked that tab yet.
Each designer gets their own login with the Designer role. They see the cases assigned to them, open the files, and move the work forward. Everything commercial is invisible — enforced by database rules, not by hiding a button.
A designer sees their assigned cases and nothing else. Prices, line items, invoices, payments, the product and price list, and the QC and history tab are all closed to them at the database level, so a shared URL does not open them either.
The standard checklist is written for a finished restoration. A design center can add the CAD design items on top of it — margin integrity, occlusal clearance, proximal contacts, minimum wall thickness, connector size and position, insertion path and undercuts, export format, scale and orientation.
STL, PLY and OBJ preview in the browser — rotate the model without downloading it — up to 100MB per file. When the designer needs everything, one button pulls the whole case down as a single ZIP.
Four things the person at the screen needs, and one thing they are never given.
The board is filtered to that designer's cases. Owners and managers see everything; a designer sees their queue. The limit is a database rule, so it holds for every screen, link and export.
The owner or a manager runs the CAD-design checklist on the case: margin integrity, occlusal clearance against the antagonist, proximal contacts, wall thickness, connector size and position, insertion path, and the export format, scale and orientation. A full pass moves the case to Ready, and the designer sees the outcome on their own case.
STL, PLY and OBJ files render in the case itself, so the designer can check the scan before opening the CAD software. Up to 100MB per file, and the whole case downloads as one ZIP with the files, the work ticket and the notes.
No unit price on the card or the case, no line items, no invoice, no payment, no product or price list, no other designer's work. Your margins on a case are not something a contractor at a screen has to be trusted with.
Design centers are not all built the same — some design for one lab, some for twenty, some bill per unit, some bill per hour. Tell us how yours is set up and we will tell you honestly whether SimpleLabOS fits before you spend a day on it.
Set your own price per unit for each account you design for, with quantity tiers for the accounts that send volume. Once a month, each one gets a statement of account — the month's invoices plus anything still carrying a balance — as a PDF under your own name and logo, and every invoice email carries a Pay Now link that needs no login.
$29/mo, $0 setup, no annual contract, and a 14-day free trial. A card is collected up front but is not charged during the trial, and you can cancel anytime.
This is the whole screen for a designer. There is no price on any card, no invoice tab, and no case that was not assigned to them — the board is filtered before it ever reaches the browser.
No. The Designer role has no access to unit prices, case line items, invoices, payments, or your product and price list, and those limits are database rules rather than hidden menu items — a copied link or a direct request returns nothing.
No. A designer's case board is filtered to the cases assigned to them, and file access is re-checked case by case. Owners and managers see everything.
The standard checklist is written for a finished restoration — marginal fit, occlusion, contacts, shade and esthetics — which is not what a design center checks. One click adds the CAD-design items to the checklist: margin integrity, occlusal clearance against the antagonist, proximal contacts, minimum wall thickness, connector size and position, insertion path and undercuts, and export format, scale and orientation. The list is editable, so you can drop anything you do not need, and a full pass — run by the owner or a manager — moves the case to Ready.
STL, PLY and OBJ files preview in the browser inside the case, so a designer can rotate the model and check the scan first. Files up to 100MB are accepted, and when they do want everything, one button downloads the whole case — every file, the work ticket and the notes — as a single ZIP.
Yes. The Manager role does everything an owner does — cases, doctors, products, prices, workflows, staff — except billing and the subscription, which stay with the owner.
Set a per-unit price for that account, and add quantity tiers so the price steps down as volume goes up. At month end you can send that account one statement of account as a PDF under your own name and logo, and the monthly units report tells you how many units you actually received and completed for each one.
