The record

Purpose: PrusaSlicer turns a 3D file into print files for a 3D printer.
Open source: PrusaSlicer is open-source software based on the Slic3r project.
Runs locally: Slicing happens on the user's machine, and the page says no account is required.
Supported desktop systems: The product page lists Windows, macOS, and Linux downloads; its Windows download requires Windows 10 or later.
Modes: The application has Simple, Advanced, and Expert modes.
Supports: It can generate organic-shaped supports and lets users paint support zones onto a model.
Multi-material: It supports material-region painting, MMU3 and multi-extruder setups, and filament changes by layer for basic multicolor prints.
Model editing: Its cut tool can split a model and add alignment pins at the seam.
Printables integration: A built-in Printables.com browser lets users find a model, import it, slice it, and send it to a printer from the same window.
Printer integrations: The page describes sending files to printers through Prusa Connect, Klipper, and OctoPrint integrations.
Automation: A command-line interface can batch-slice hundreds of files or integrate with custom manufacturing pipelines.
Privacy: The page says models, profiles, and G-code remain on the computer unless the user explicitly sends them somewhere, and describes the software as suitable for air-gapped environments.
Limits: The PrusaSlicer 3 alpha preview page says pre-release builds are not recommended for production environments.
Support: Prusa provides a PrusaSlicer support section in its Knowledge Base.
