How Cut Lists helps

Every feature answers one question: how does this make your life easier?

Cut Lists isn't a list of tools. It's a calmer, clearer workshop where students, teachers and technicians stay organised and informed.

See every cutting request in one organised place

A clear dashboard replaces scattered paper slips and sticky notes. You'll always know what's waiting, what's in progress and what's done.

Never wonder whether a request has been received

Real-time push and in-app notifications tell students, teachers and technicians the moment a job is submitted, updated or completed.

Keep teachers, technicians and students communicating in one place

Each request has its own chat thread — ask questions, clarify specs and share updates without leaving the platform.

Keep every CNC file attached to the correct project

Upload any file type — DXF, DWG, STL, PDF and more. Specify cutting method and thickness for precise fabrication.

Prioritise work in seconds, not spreadsheets

Technicians drag and drop their job queue by deadline, material or urgency for maximum workflow efficiency.

Always know what materials you have in stock

Track material stock levels, usage costs and low-stock alerts. Manage workshop inventory without spreadsheets.

Approve requests before they reach the workshop

Optional teacher approval for student requests ensures quality control and safety compliance.

See the status of every job at a glance

Visual status indicators move from pending through in-progress to complete — know exactly where each job stands.

Keep each school's data completely separate

All data is scoped by school. No cross-school visibility, ever — enterprise-grade security for peace of mind.

Give everyone the right level of access

Students, teachers, technicians, admins and super admins — each with tailored views and permissions.

Understand your workshop at a glance

Track requests, completion rates, material usage and response times from comprehensive admin dashboards.

Access from anywhere, on any device

Cloud-based with nothing to install. Automatic backups and updates — your workshop is always available.

From request to fabrication in one calm flow

See exactly how Cut Lists moves a request from a student's screen to the workshop bench.

Students submit complete requests

Students enter dimensions, material, colour and due date — or upload a CAD file directly. No more hunting for lost notes or decoding unclear handwriting.

Technicians receive the request instantly with every detail they need, exactly as written.
