Synctile
Shop floor scheduler that replaces the whiteboard — live boards update on overhead TVs.
Synctile replaces the shop-floor whiteboard with a drag-and-drop schedule that updates live on overhead TVs and kiosk screens the moment a job moves. It imports jobs straight from an Excel CSV, goes live in about 15 minutes, and flags machines booked past their shift hours with daily capacity bars — one 20-machine CNC shop's managing director reported on-time delivery up about 7% in the first month just from bottlenecks becoming visible earlier. It's priced for the gap between a free whiteboard (no data, no history, no visibility outside the shop) and a traditional ERP (five-figure licenses, months of setup): plans start at $39/month with a 90-day free trial.
What holds up
- +Live in about 15 minutes with a straight CSV import from Excel — no consultant needed.
- +Capacity bars flag an overbooked machine automatically, before it costs overtime.
- +One 20-machine CNC shop reported on-time delivery up about 7% in the first month.
- +Starts at $39/month with a 90-day free trial — versus five-figure ERP license costs.
Mind the limits
- −Scheduling only — it's not an ERP, so accounting and purchasing still need a separate system.
- −Built specifically for CNC shops, fabricators and production work centres, not general use.
