Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A woodworking tool that optimizes sheet-and-board layouts, tracks stock, and turns each plan into a fence-ready cutting sequence.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

Yieldsaw combines cut optimization with a small inventory system: stock is reserved when a calculation uses it, so the same sheet cannot be promised to two projects. Its cutting engine is described as guillotine-correct, decomposing layouts into edge-to-edge cuts for table, track, or panel saws. The site also presents LiDAR measurement on compatible iPhones and iPads, plus PDF and PNG exports for bench notes, clients, or team boards.
