Machestra

Simple production scheduling for small manufacturers.·machestra.com

Machestra is a production scheduling and shop-floor management platform for small manufacturers with roughly 3 to 30 machines. It brings machines, people, materials, and schedules into one system, replacing spreadsheets, whiteboards, and calendar tools. Users can create jobs, break them into steps, assign machines and operators, track material stock, and view a visual scheduling board that flags double-bookings. It is positioned as a deliberately simple alternative to full ERP systems, with flat pricing based on machine count rather than per-user fees.
