Eve Foundry New Player Guide

Start Here

Eve Foundry is designed to help you find profitable industry jobs without needing to already know what to build. The main flow is simple: sync your data, set where you build and sell, scan for profit, then lock in jobs you want to track.

Step 1

Log in and sync

Log in with EVE, then use Dashboard to click Sync My Industry Data. This updates assets, blueprints, skills, and implants.

Go to Dashboard →

Step 2

Set industry settings

Tell Foundry where you build and where you sell. Build systems are searched from the EVE solar-system database.

Open Industry Settings →

Step 3

Scan for profit

Profit Tracker scans known industry blueprints, checks which ones you own, and ranks them by profit, ROI, or ISK per hour.

Step 4

Track jobs

Industry Jobs will track builds you decide to commit to, including materials, status, original profit, and current profit.

What each page is for

Dashboard

Your command centre. Use this to sync your EVE industry data and check your current access tier.

Industry Settings

Save your build locations, sell locations, tax assumptions, structure bonuses, and default market hub.

Profit Tracker

Finds possible builds, shows profit/loss, ROI, ISK/hour, blueprint ownership, missing materials, and detailed breakdowns.

Industry Jobs

This is where locked-in builds will be tracked from planning through buying, production, listing, and sale.

Warehouse

Lets you inspect the assets Foundry can see, including quantities, locations, and whether items are loose or inside containers.

Omega

Shows how to unlock advanced calculations and Omega-only blueprint rows for this site.

Important calculation notes

  • Owned materials are still counted at market value because they could be sold instead of used.
  • Industry job cost uses EVE adjusted price / EIV where available.
  • System Cost Index comes from ESI once your build location has a valid solar system ID.
  • Structure material and time bonuses need to be entered manually because ESI does not reliably expose structure rig effects.
  • Profit Tracker uses conservative sell-now pricing where possible so strange low-volume items do not look falsely profitable.

Newbro Explanation

Start Here explains the new Eve Foundry flow. You do not need to start with the Calculator or Blueprints page anymore.

What to do here

  • Log in with EVE.
  • Click Sync My Industry Data on the Dashboard.
  • Set your build and sell locations in Industry Settings.
  • Use Profit Tracker to find profitable builds.
  • Add chosen builds to Industry Jobs once that feature is enabled.

Important notes

  • Calculator, Blueprints, and old Build Locations pages may still exist as support pages, but they are no longer the main workflow.
  • The main flow is Dashboard, Industry Settings, Profit Tracker, Industry Jobs, and Warehouse.
