Installed fast with no additional libraries. Has options for edge width, cutting type, panel type, etc. Great for planning how to cut the pieces after making a 3D model. I use it for personal projects.

What is MaxCut?

MaxCut is cut list optimization software designed for small to medium cabinet making businesses, joinery shops, and woodworking operations that cut sheet materials manually. It takes the guesswork out of panel cutting by generating optimized 2D cutting layouts from your parts list, factoring in saw kerf widths, grain direction, sheet trim settings, and material costs to produce accurate, workshop-ready cutting diagrams in minutes.

Beyond layout planning, MaxCut handles the full job workflow. Generate professional client quotations, compare material costs against selling prices, track labor costs, print panel and job item labels, and produce advertising-free reports for clients and workshop staff. A built-in cabinet library lets you save and reuse common configurations across jobs, saving time on repeat work.

MaxCut is available in two editions. The Community Edition is free for hobbyists and businesses trying out the software. The Business Edition unlocks the full feature set including bulk changes, grain alignment across panels, professional quotations, advanced costing tools, batch reporting, and CSV import, available at USD 20 per month or USD 200 per year, per device.
