What Lychee Slicer is
Lychee Slicer prepares 3D models for resin and filament printing, with tools for supports, hollowing, print-setting previews, and printer configuration. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and Lychee says it is compatible with more than 750 printers. Resin tools include custom and grid supports, exposure settings, AR preview, and one-click hollowing. Filament tools include printer profiles, support management, seam optimization, and real-time preview. Compatible filament printers can communicate through Klipper or OctoPrint; Wi-Fi sending depends on the printer model. Lychee Library is integrated into the slicer and offers pre-supported creator models. Lite is free, with limited Multi-Plate and ads on export. Plus is billed at €99.90 plus local taxes yearly (€8.33 per month), and Plus & Library at €199.90 plus local taxes yearly (€16.66 per month). The Library models included in the latter plan cannot be used commercially without creator approval. The product also describes cloud settings sync across machines and automatic local backups.
