PanelPlan is a cloud cutting optimizer built for carpentry workshops — not just nesting, but the whole workflow. Guillotine-valid layouts with kerf, grain direction, and edge-tape compensation. Stock tracking, drilling-point templates, assembly checklists, and client-ready quotes — all from one project. Built for teams: your whole workshop shares materials and plans from any device, in 17 languages. Free to preview and plan — pay only when you finalize a plan for the shop.
Hey everyone 👋
PanelPlan started with a friend's idea. He's not a carpenter, but he saw carpentry shops planning cuts by hand or in spreadsheets, losing material to bad layouts — and no tool built for how a small shop actually works.
I built it from there: real guillotine-cut constraints, grain direction, edge-tape compensation, and eventually the pieces that turned it from a nesting tool into something a whole shop could run on — stock tracking, drilling templates, assembly checklists, client quotes.
Still early, still learning from real workshops. Would love your feedback, especially if you've dealt with cutting-layout software before.
