Gets designed
Your team designs the project with your catalog — in the browser or in SketchUp — or your customers do it themselves.

For cabinet shops that build to order
The fastest step is the one you don’t do.
With Mattersmith, your projects flow from design to the shop floor — without getting stuck in the office.
Mattersmith streamlines our ability to send orders to the factory floor, and provides a highly flexible platform our customers feel very comfortable working with.— Cabinotch
What you quote is what you deliver.
When the same product is set up in more than one place — one for quoting, another for engineering — every job quietly costs you more. You move it from one system to the next, fix the mismatches between them, and hope the cabinet still matches the quote. With Mattersmith, set up each product only once — how it’s engineered and what it costs. So the quote your customer sees and the cabinets you deliver can’t disagree, because they come from the same place.

Mattersmith integrates everything from sales to production. It greatly eliminates the chance for errors and our customers no longer have to wait for quotes.
Mattersmith eliminates the engineering bottleneck, and allows us to double throughput in the shop.
How it works
Every project flows from design to the shop floor — complete with quoting and machining.
One time
We build your first catalog with you — your pricing, your engineering, your products. Run it yourself from there, or leave it to us; either way, every project draws from it.
Then, every project:
What's in it
Everything a build-to-order shop runs on — design, quoting, orders, and machine files — in one place.
Browser-based design
Design projects right in your browser — nothing to download, install, or update. Prefer SketchUp? You can do that too.
Instant quoting
Get pricing for a design instantly. As the design updates, the quote does too. No spreadsheets, no waiting.
Instant machining files
Generate your production data the moment the project is confirmed — cut lists, CNC programs, labels, and BOMs.
Order management
Adjustments, approvals, ship dates — track every project from quote to the shop floor.
Tailored reports
Cut lists, door lists, hardware lists and more, generated straight from the order.
Custom tools
For the one-off that’s outside your catalog — build it and get the machining files you need.
Let your customers design and order online
Invite your customers and they design, price, and order from your catalog themselves, right in the browser. You open a new way to sell and take work off your order desk in one move.
-
A new way to sell
Your catalog takes orders around the clock — from customers and dealers you couldn’t reach over the phone.
-
No order you can’t build
They’re choosing from your catalog, not drawing their own — so every order that lands is something you can actually make. No impossible sizes, no parts you don’t offer, nothing to catch and fix.
-
Less work on your desk
They design and submit; you review and approve. No data entry, no quote backlog.

Works with your shop
No rip-and-replace. Mattersmith outputs to the CAM software you already use — ready to nest and cut.

Priced to fit
Mattersmith pricing is sized to fit your business, and it earns its keep in the office hours and rework it saves on every project.
Your customers, your workflow — our engine.
If our workflow doesn’t fit, build the one your customers need on top of Mattersmith — it’s open, not a walled garden. Embed our Configurator and Room Planner right in your own site, and call the engine through our API. Mattersmith’s engine generates pricing and machine-ready files instantly.
