StitchFrame questions, answered
What StitchFrame is, how the configure, price, and quote flow works, and how Blackpine tailors it to your industry.
What is StitchFrame?
StitchFrame is a 3D configure, price, and quote platform. Your customers customize a product in 3D, see live pricing as they go, and submit a finished quote in one flow. It works especially well for apparel, and the same engine fits any customizable product.
What does CPQ mean?
CPQ stands for configure, price, quote. It is the flow a customer goes through to specify exactly what they want, get accurate pricing for those choices, and receive a quote they can act on. StitchFrame runs that whole flow in one place, in 3D.
How is StitchFrame different from a normal online store or order form?
A store sells fixed items. StitchFrame is built for products that are configured. Customers build their own design in interactive 3D, pricing updates live with every choice, and what they see on screen is what they order. No email threads, no pricing worked out by hand, and no waiting days for a quote.

What kinds of manufacturers use CPQ?
CPQ fits any manufacturer whose products are configured rather than picked off a shelf. Custom apparel and uniforms are a strong fit for StitchFrame, and the same engine handles other made to order products with options, sizes, materials, and decoration. If your team quotes orders by hand today, CPQ software replaces that manual work with one configure, price, and quote flow.
Do we host StitchFrame ourselves?
No. Blackpine hosts and operates the platform for you. It runs as your own product on your own branded domain, so your customers see your brand, not ours. You never take on servers, infrastructure, or source to maintain.
Can we run it on our own domain and branding?
Yes. StitchFrame runs as your branded tenant on your own domain. It is multi tenant and white label at its core, so your data, users, and catalog stay isolated and secure.
How does pricing work inside StitchFrame?
A custom pricing engine prices every choice live. Your tiers, volume breaks, and upcharges are applied automatically as the customer configures, which removes the manual math and stale price lists that cause quoting errors.

What is a dealer portal?
A dealer portal is a website where a manufacturer's dealers sign in to configure products, see their own pricing, and submit orders or quotes without email back and forth. StitchFrame includes a white label dealer portal that runs under your brand on your own domain, with each dealer's pricing built in.

Does StitchFrame work for manufacturers who sell through dealers?
Yes. StitchFrame is built for custom product manufacturers, including those who sell through dealer networks. Your dealers get a branded portal with live 3D configuration and their own B2B pricing, and every quote they submit arrives structured and priced for your team to review.
Does it only work for apparel?
No. StitchFrame is a 3D configure, price, and quote product at its core. It works especially well for apparel, but the same engine fits any customizable product. Blackpine tailors the data model, rules, and catalog to how your industry works.
How do we get StitchFrame set up for our business?
Blackpine configures it for you. We learn how you sell, tailor the data model, pricing rules, catalog, and branding to your industry, deploy it on your domain, then host and support it. You do not self configure the platform.
Is it secure enough for our data?
Yes. Your data is isolated per customer, access is controlled by role, and Blackpine hosts and operates the platform so you are not maintaining security infrastructure yourself.
How much does StitchFrame cost?
StitchFrame uses custom pricing. Blackpine scopes each deployment to your catalog, pricing rules, and industry, then quotes a subscription that includes hosting, operations, and support. Request a demo and we will scope it with you.
