Electronic parts inventory
Search by part number, see stock in each drawer, and import your list from CSV.
Electronics inventory →Self-hosted inventory and project planning for makers
Know what you have. Plan what you build.
Keep electronic parts and filament organized by location, record stock changes, and see what each project needs before work starts. VoltVault runs on your own computer with Docker, with an iPhone app in beta.

Filament spool tracking
Grams left, storage location, and usage history for every physical spool.
Filament inventory →Plan projects with real stock
Plan steps, parts, and filament together. See shortages before a build starts.
Project boards →Electronic parts by drawer and bin
Search by name, inventory code, or manufacturer part number. See the count in each place and a history of receipts, moves, and use.
Electronics inventory →Project plans tied to parts and filament
List the steps and materials a build needs. See what is available, what is short, and which usage needs review.
Project board details →Spool inventory
Know what remains on every spool
Give each physical spool its own record, location, and weight history. Enter a scale reading and VoltVault subtracts the empty spool weight so your remaining inventory stays clear.

Example measurement. Actual weight depends on your spool and saved tare.
- Print and scan QR spool labels
- Filter by material, color, brand, or storage
- Find the closest color in the filament catalog
Private LAN connection
Optional Bambu Lab printer and AMS integration
If you have a compatible Bambu Lab printer, see AMS placement and review a print's estimated filament use before stock changes. VoltVault connects in LAN-only Developer Mode. Slicing and sending prints stay in Bambu Studio.
Bambu Lab is a third party and does not sponsor or endorse VoltVault.Supported printers

Your workshop records stay on your machine
Runs in Docker
The server and browser app install together on Mac, Windows, Linux, or a 64-bit Raspberry Pi.
Stays on your network
Your phone and printers connect over your private LAN. Your inventory does not need a public server.
Export and back up
Download CSV exports and verified database backups. Keep a copy on another device.
Common questions
Inventory and project questions
Does it work without the cloud?
Core inventory runs on your computer, and your phone and printers connect over your private network. Internet is needed to install and for some optional integrations.
Can a project use both parts and filament?
Yes. Add the steps and materials for a build, then check availability and shortages before you start. Confirm actual usage as work progresses.
Can I run it on a Raspberry Pi?
Yes, on a 64-bit Raspberry Pi with Docker Engine and the Compose plugin.
Do I need a 3D printer?
No. You can manage parts, storage locations, stock history, and projects without connecting a printer. Compatible Bambu Lab printer and AMS integration is optional.
Is there a mobile app?
The iPhone app is available as a TestFlight beta. It connects to your VoltVault server on your private network.
Install VoltVault in one command
