Real quotes, paraphrased from Practical Machinist and Reddit shop-owner discussions.
“There isn't a place to look at what's late or coming up. I have to walk the floor and ask.”
“I forgot setup time on the second op, and the heat-treat lead time entirely. Same Excel sheet since 2019.”
“We don't believe any software can handle it — rush jobs show up whenever they want.”
No modules you’ll never use. No consultants. Set up in an afternoon.
ShopTrace watches every job against machine load and flags delivery risk days in advance — and tells you exactly what a new rush job will do to your other promises before you say yes.
Email or upload a drawing and ShopTrace drafts the job, routing, and due date automatically. You confirm it — you don't type it in from scratch.
Operators log progress by tapping a job and speaking a status update. No terminals, no training, no logins to remember.
Bring your Excel sheet, Access database, or job list — ShopTrace maps it in, no re-entry.
Tell it what runs what. Describe your workflow in plain English — no configuration screens.
See what's on track, what's at risk, and what a new job would cost you before you commit to it.

We’ll email you once, when it’s ready to try. No spam, no lists sold.
