Yieldsaw

Stop guessing how much wood to buy. If you've ever bought an extra sheet of plywood "just in case," eyeballed a cut list on the back of an envelope, or realized halfway through a project that you're one board short — Yieldsaw is built for exactly that moment. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Yieldsaw takes the parts you need to cut and works out the most efficient way to get them from your available stock — sheets, boards, or lengths of timber — so you buy only what you actually need and waste as little as possible. No spreadsheets, no manual arithmetic, no leftover offcuts piling up in the corner of the workshop. You have the final say on the layout Yieldsaw's engine finds an efficient cutting layout automatically — but you're never stuck with it. Drag and reposition any part by hand, and the layout re-validates live as you move things, catching overlaps, grain direction, and blade kerf spacing before you commit. Once it looks right to you, save it and go. Plan at your desk. Cut in the workshop. Set up your project on the web when you've got a proper screen and a coffee — enter your parts, your stock sizes, your material. Then pick up your phone at the saw and follow the cutting sequence step by step, exactly where you need it most. One account. Works everywhere. Subscribe once and your projects, plans, and stock are the same whether you're on the web or in the app. No separate logins, no losing your work if you clear your browser or switch devices — your account is genuinely yours, everywhere. Built for real workshops, not just spreadsheets: Smart cutting engine that finds efficient layouts across sheet goods and dimensional lumber Manual drag-and-drop layout editing with live overlap and kerf validation Step-by-step cut sequences you can follow at the saw Export your cutting diagrams as PDF, PNG, or DXF Automatic shopping lists — know exactly what to buy before you start Warehouse and stock tracking, so leftover material from one job gets used on the next instead of forgotten Camera-assisted measurement to speed up capturing real-world dimensions Who it's for: Whether you're building your first bookshelf or running a full cabinet shop, Yieldsaw scales with you. Hobbyists get a genuinely useful free tier to learn on — not a countdown of trial calculations. Professionals get the stock management and export tools to run real jobs. Try it properly, free. The free plan includes every feature — the cutting engine, exports, shopping lists, stock tracking, all of it. It's limited to 2 active projects and 10 active cutting plans at a time; archive old ones to free up space, or upgrade when you need more room to work. Nothing gets locked away behind a paywall you have to discover the hard way. Start your first cut list in minutes. Buy less. Waste less. Cut once.
