What AMIS does
AMIS is a Belgian industrial software company headquartered in Merelbeke and operating as a subsidiary of Hybrid Software Group, focused on build preparation software for industrial additive manufacturing. The company targets professional users of powder-based 3D printing systems — specifically SLS, MJF, Material Jetting, and Binder Jetting technologies — as well as 3D printer OEMs seeking embedded digital front-end capabilities. The core technical stack combines proprietary Q*Nest ultra-fast nesting algorithms with a Node.js-based automation API, marketed as the first platform to support fully autonomous continuous re-nesting for just-in-time production recalculation.
The product portfolio is anchored by AMIS Pro (flagship build preparation software with intelligent nesting, density control, and printer-specific slicing), complemented by AMIS Runtime (an automation and orchestration engine for scripted workflows), AMIS DFE (a digital front-end for printer OEMs), and SDKs for MES/ERP and printer integration. Revenue is generated through three streams: subscription licensing for AMIS Pro (€399–€499 per month depending on billing cadence), subscription licensing for AMIS Runtime (€899–€999 per month), and custom-priced OEM/SDK licensing arrangements. Distribution is hybrid: a product-led growth motion via direct website downloads and trials for individual professionals, layered with enterprise field sales for large service bureaus and OEM embedded deals.
AMIS employs 51–100 people and has been characterized in public materials as a "fast-growing startup" within Hybrid Software Group. Publicly disclosed strategic activity in 2025–2026 includes a co-development partnership with Dr. Hasan Bas of Ondokuz Mayıs University on adaptive slicing for Binder Jetting, the launch of AMIS Runtime, and the first named enterprise deployment at UK-based 3D People, which was supported by a UK government grant. No external funding rounds or disclosed revenue figures appear in the source material, indicating the business is currently sustained by parent-company backing rather than independent venture capital.

Strategic signalPartnerships
Four partnerships are on record, tiered minor, core and flagship.
- UK GovernmentminorThe UK government provided grant funding to support 3D People's deployment of AMIS Runtime at its London facility.
- Dr. Hasan Bas (Ondokuz Mayıs University)coreAMIS partnered with Dr. Hasan Bas from Turkey-based Ondokuz Mayıs University (OMU) to integrate a variable slice height algorithm into AMIS Pro for binder jetting processes. The algorithm dynamically adjusts layer thickness based on part geometry, reducing total layer count by up to 12% without loss of dimensional accuracy.
- 3D Peoplecore3D People, a UK-based additive manufacturing service provider, has fully deployed AMIS Runtime at its London facility to automate build preparation. The deployment was supported by a UK government grant and aims to enhance production efficiency, reduce manual errors, and support factory expansion. This represents an early adopter partnership prior to official launch.
- Hybrid Software GroupflagshipAMIS is a company embedded within The Hybrid Software Group, specializing in Part-to-Printer solutions for Industrial Additive Manufacturing. This provides access to broader AM ecosystem resources and expertise.

AMIS competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Stratasys: Stratasys distributes GrabCAD Print and PolyJet/FDM-focused build software; while formats differ, the product competes for the same service-buyer wallet share that AMIS targets in industrial AM workflows.
- Autodesk (Netfabb): Autodesk Netfabb is a leading end-to-end additive manufacturing software suite covering build preparation, simulation, and workflow—overlapping with AMIS Pro and AMIS Runtime for industrial 3D printing users.
- Materialise: Materialise's Magics suite is the dominant off-the-shelf build-preparation, nesting, and slicing platform for industrial 3D printing—the most direct head-to-head competitor to AMIS Pro across the same SLS/MJF/MJ/BJ processes.
- 3D Systems: 3D Systems sells 3D Sprint and 3DXpert as build-preparation and workflow software for plastic and metal AM, directly competing with AMIS Pro for service-bureau and OEM mindshare.
Broad incumbents
- Hexagon (MSC Software): Hexagon's Manufacturing Intelligence division provides simulation and AM workflow software (e.g., Amphyon) that overlaps with build-prep and lattice/slicing tasks for industrial 3D printing.
- Velo3D: Velo3D sells metal AM systems with its own flow/digital front-end; like other printer OEMs, it is a potential OEM partner for AMIS DFE and an installed-base competitor for build-prep software.
- EOS: EOS offers EOSPRINT and broader metal AM systems with bundled build-prep software; as an incumbent printer OEM with proprietary software, it is both a potential AMIS DFE partner and a competitive substitute.
Emerging players
- nTopology: nTopology provides advanced engineering and lattice/lightweighting design tools feeding directly into AM build preparation—an adjacent competitor for lattice and support generation workflows.
- Authentise: Authentise delivers workflow and MES-style orchestration software for additive manufacturing, competing with AMIS Runtime's enterprise automation and hands-off build-preparation proposition.
- Dyndrite: Dyndrite provides a developer-focused, GPU-accelerated additive manufacturing toolkit with build-prep and OEM SDK APIs—an emerging competitor attacking the same automation/SDK layer as AMIS Runtime and AMIS DFE.
