| Software notes | The AtomStack Swift supports the most widely used laser control software, including LaserGRBL (free, Windows only) and LightBurn (paid, compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux). It connects via USB or Wi-Fi, providing excellent flexibility for sending g-code files directly to the machine. | The machine can be controlled via the proprietary Ortur app, available for mobile and desktop devices, which simplifies the engraving process with pre-configured settings for various materials. |
