EVE Online PI Planner & Planetary Industry Calculator

Plan Planetary Industry production chains before you commit planets, factory routes, customs taxes, or hauling time. Pick any P1–P4 commodity to inspect its upstream inputs, compare tiers, and decide what is actually worth building.

Planetary Industry tiers (P0 → P4)

P0
Raw resources

Extracted directly from planets. The start of every chain, but bulky to haul.

P1
Processed materials

Made from P0. Simple to produce, but margins shrink with taxes and volume.

P2
Refined commodities

Combine P1 inputs into compact goods like Coolant and Mechanical Parts.

P3
Advanced commodities

Higher ISK density, but more factory capacity and logistics to coordinate.

P4
Specialized commodities

Top-tier goods that usually need multiple planets and imported inputs.

Common PI questions

Should I always process to P4?

No. Higher tiers can raise ISK density, but taxes, market spread, and slow sales often make a steady P2 or P3 product more practical.

Does this replace in-game price checks?

No. Use it to understand the chain and shortlist candidates, then verify live buy/sell orders, taxes, and volume before scaling.

Is EVE-HUB affiliated with CCP?

No. EVE-HUB is an independent, fan-made tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by CCP hf.
