What is SmartCut API?

SmartCut is a hosted cutting optimization API for sheet, linear and roll materials. Send parts and stock as JSON, get back cutting layouts, sheet counts and offcut positions.

It covers guillotine cutting for panel and beam saws, true-shape nesting for CNC, laser, plasma and waterjet, and one-dimensional linear cutting for timber, bar, pipe and extrusion. Kerf, trim, grain direction and edge banding are all part of the job definition, so a layout matches how the material is really cut.

Results export as PDF cutting diagrams, CSV, DXF and SVG, and as saw files in PTX, Mayer, Biesse and Homag formats.

The OpenAPI 3 specification is published and versioned, so clients can be generated in any language. There is no official SDK by design: the API is a JSON body and an Authorization header.

A hosted MCP server is also available, which lets an AI assistant read a cutting plan and run an optimization directly.

Free tier for testing, then usage-based pricing metered on compute time.
