AI software for metal fabrication

AI software for metal fabrication.

High-mix work, nested cuts, weld schedules, and a whiteboard running the whole floor. CitrusWeb puts fabrication scheduling, job status, and quoting on one live screen, built by a team that runs its own software in production.

24–35%
of quotes win: two-thirds to three-quarters of quoting labor produces no revenue (FMA benchmarking)
84–87%
average on-time delivery: roughly 1 in 6 jobs ships late against the original promise date (FMA)
1.4%
of sales lost to internal scrap and rework, on operating margins near 6% (FMA)

// Where AI helps in your shop

Where AI helps in metal fabrication.

One live schedule for the floor

Cut, form, weld, finish: every work center on one board that updates as jobs move, instead of a whiteboard that is wrong by 10 a.m.

Stop skipping RFQs

When quoting is tedious, work you could win never gets priced. AI-assisted quoting drafts the estimate and a human approves it.

Digital travelers

Paper travelers go dark until they resurface. Digital job status means the front office stops interrupting the floor to ask.

Material costs that move

Tariff-era steel and aluminum pricing changes under your feet. Live material cost tracking keeps quotes honest.

// Questions shops actually ask
We run on spreadsheets. Is that a problem?+
It is the normal starting point: about half of manufacturers plan in Excel or on paper. CitrusWeb tools are built to replace one spreadsheet at a time, not to force a full ERP project.
Does this replace our ERP or accounting?+
No. Works coexists with your ERP and QuickBooks. It covers the floor: scheduling, status, and visibility.
What does it cost?+
Flat monthly pricing per shop, never per seat, so the whole crew can be on it.
How does the AI actually help?+
It drafts quotes, flags schedule slips before they land, and answers questions about job status in plain English. A human approves anything that matters.
