The platform

More than laser cutting quote software, a full ERP

CUTL is the manufacturing ERP for laser, plasma and waterjet shops, from 5 to 30 people. It started as the most accurate sheet-metal quoting engine in the industry.

Today it runs your DXF and STEP intake, nesting, production schedule and an online AI editor, and it's growing into warehouse, remnant management and document workflow. One login. One source of truth. No spreadsheets, no disconnected tools. And when you have a question, just ask, the built-in AI knows your shop.

Get started

Flagship

An online STEP viewer where you and your client discuss the part together

CUTL opens full 3D STEP models right in the browser, then lets you invite your customer in to look at the same part with you. Rotate, zoom, pin comments and talk through the assembly together, live. No CAD seats, no exported screenshots, no endless email threads. When everyone agrees, push it straight to quoting.

Invite clients in one click

Share a link, your customer opens the same 3D model in their browser. No CAD, no installs, no account hoops.

Discuss right on the model

Drop pins and comments on any face or edge. Talk through the assembly together, in real time, on the part itself.

Full assemblies, not just parts

Open multi-body STEP assemblies, browse the component tree, isolate, hide and explode parts to inspect how it all fits.

PMI & metadata

Reads embedded dimensions, tolerances, surface finish and datums (PMI) straight from the STEP file, nothing lost in translation.

Live shared view

Everyone sees the same model as you rotate, zoom and section it, like working around one table, online.

From discussion to quote

Once the part is agreed, send it straight to quoting, no re-drawing, no re-uploading.

3D STEP part open in the CUTL online viewer

Documentation from a 3D model, generated for you

An assistant built right into the STEP viewer turns a 3D assembly into a finished document. It breaks the model into parts, reads everything the file already knows, and asks only what is missing, then builds a parts list and a page per part as a PDF or editable DOCX, in your company template.

Reads the model for you

Part names, materials, thickness, sizes and quantities are pulled straight from the STEP file, never re-typed.

PMI dimensions and tolerances

Where the model carries dimensions, tolerances and datums (PMI), they flow into the part cards automatically.

Asks only what is missing

The assistant fills in everything it can and asks a few short questions for the rest, one question per repeated part, skip any you like.

PDF or editable DOCX

Get a cover with the general view and parts list, then a page per part, in your company template, ready to send, archive or edit in Word.

CUTL online AI DXF editor cleaning up part geometry

Released

Online AI DXF editor, fix and prep geometry without leaving the browser

No more bouncing files back to CAD. Open any DXF in CUTL's online editor, let the AI clean the geometry, tweak it by hand if you want, and re-price instantly, then push it straight into nesting and production.

Photo or sketch to DXF

Snap a photo of a part, or a hand drawing on paper, and the AI turns it into a clean, quotable DXF.

One-click cleanup

AI finds open contours, duplicates and gaps and repairs them automatically.

Edit in the browser

Move, trim and redraw geometry, no CAD seat, no install, no round-trips.

Instant re-pricing

Every edit re-runs the cost engine, watch the price update as you draw.

Straight to nesting

Send a cleaned part directly into nesting and production.

Developers

An extensive API for calculation, extraction and nesting

Everything CUTL does in the browser, it does over a REST API. Wire quoting, geometry extraction and true-shape nesting straight into your website, ERP or internal tools, and let webhooks keep both sides in sync.

Calculation API

Post part parameters and get a full cost breakdown back, materials, machine time, piercing and operations.

Extraction API

Send a DXF or STEP file and pull structured geometry, dimensions and contours programmatically.

Nesting API

Request true-shape nesting layouts and receive production-ready DXF for CypCut and RDWorks.

Webhooks and ERP sync

Subscribe to quote and order events to push data straight into your ERP or CRM.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our community and support team continuously update the questions and answers.

Most quotes are generated in under 10 seconds. Just upload your DXF or STEP file, select material and quantity, and the system instantly calculates cutting time, material usage, nesting layout, and total cost.

No. The platform runs entirely in the browser. Simply drag-and-drop your DXF or STEP files, the system automatically detects geometry, cleans up issues, and prepares everything for pricing.

Cutl.online supports laser, waterjet, plasma, blade/knife cutting, and more. You can also configure custom machines, materials, extra operations (bending, painting, tapping), and pricing rules.

Most users set up their machines, materials, and pricing rules in under 30 minutes. Optional guided onboarding from our team is available for more complex setups or ERP integrations.

Yes. CUTL has a REST API and supports integration with popular ERP and CRM systems. Export quotes, sync material prices, or push production data, all via API.
