How it works

Three steps, one screen.

No CAD cleanup marathon. No upload queue. The nesting engine runs in a worker inside your browser.

01

Drop your parts

Import an SVG with closed contours. Every outer shape becomes a part; inner contours become holes. Text and strokes must be outlined first.

02

Set the constraints

Choose the sheet, margin, kerf, part spacing, rotation step, and number of sheets. The layout respects every value you enter.

03

Nest and export

Compare utilization, then download SVG or DXF geometry that opens in LightBurn, Glowforge, xTool, or your CNC software.

Features

Everything you need for a clean layout. Nothing you don't.

Built for the jobs that do not need a factory-scale CAM suite — but still deserve real kerf, spacing, and true-shape placement.

True-shape nesting

Parts are placed by their real outlines — curves, holes, and recesses included. Not a bounding-box approximation.

Kerf, spacing, and grain

Set the cut width and clearance once. The nesting engine keeps parts far enough apart for a real cut.

Rotation control

Allow 90°, 45°, 15°, or no rotation. Use fewer orientations for grain direction and faster cutting.

Multi-sheet layouts

Pack one job across up to 20 sheets. Every sheet is exported in order so the shop can run them one by one.

Cut-ready exports

Download SVG paths or DXF polylines in millimetres. Import straight into your machine software — no conversion step.

Private by design

Nesting runs in a Web Worker on your machine. Your drawings are never uploaded, stored, or used for training.

Why browser-local

Your drawings are your business.

Most cloud nesters ask you to upload every drawing before you can see a layout. Cutlattice runs the geometry engine on your machine. That means confidential parts stay private, the first result appears in seconds, and the free tier has no server bill to subsidise.

  • No account wall between you and the first layout.
  • Works after the page loads, even if your shop Wi-Fi drops.
  • SVG and DXF output in real millimetres, ready for your machine software.

FAQ

Questions shops actually ask.

Is it really free?

Yes. Nesting is unlimited and free. Guests can export one clean file; a free account gets three clean exports per day and keeps local projects. Pro removes the export limit and unlocks multi-sheet layouts.

Do you upload my SVG files?

No. The parser and nesting engine run in your browser. Files leave your device only if you later choose to save a project to a Cutlattice account. The beta does not upload anything.

Which file formats are supported?

SVG today. DXF import is next, followed by PDF/AI vector import. Both SVG and DXF export are available now.

Does it work with LightBurn, Glowforge, and xTool?

Yes. Export SVG or DXF and import the file into your machine software. Cutlattice keeps real-world millimetres, so the layout arrives at the right size.

Can it generate G-code?

Not yet. Cutlattice focuses on geometry and layout. Use LightBurn or your existing CAM software for toolpaths and machine-specific G-code. This keeps the output safe across machines.

How is this different from industrial nesting software?

Industrial suites are built for factories, NC post-processors, and certified production workflows. Cutlattice is built for the 90% of jobs that just need a fast, clean layout in a browser — without an install, a sales call, or an upload.

How do I pay, and how do I cancel?

Pro is billed by Waffo, our merchant of record. Open Account → Manage subscription to update payment details or cancel. Canceling keeps access until the end of the current billing period. Team plans are coming soon.

What happens after I upgrade?

Waffo redirects you back to your account after payment. The subscription is granted by a signed webhook, usually within seconds. If the plan still shows Free, use Refresh status on the account page.

Can I use the exported layouts commercially?

Yes. You own the files you import and the layouts you export. There is no watermark on beta exports.
