Tools for manufacturing shops
The paperwork should not outlast the job.
You quoted it once. Then you typed it again into the traveler, the packing slip, and the invoice. We build the tools that stop that, for shops that run on the software they already have.
The product
Signal
One document cascade for the shop floor. Type the job once and every document that follows fills itself in, including the revision nobody remembered to carry over.
The screen above is a mock. Signal is in build.
Quote
The estimate you already typed, once.
Traveler
Operations, materials, and the due date carried forward.
Packing slip
Built from what actually shipped, not from memory.
Invoice
Out the door the day the truck leaves.
Custom builds
Or the same thing, shaped to your shop.
Every shop runs a little differently, and the software you already pay for stays where it is. Tell us which of these eats your week.

About
Who you would be working with.
CruLink is Leo and Bennett. We are a two-person company in Los Angeles, and you work directly with us, not through an account team. Before this we built quoting software for metal fabrication shops, which is where we learned that most shops do not need new software. They need the work they already do to take fewer hours. That is what we build. Every project is fixed-price, and you see the number before anything starts.
How a project goes
- A thirty-minute call. You tell us what eats your week. We tell you honestly whether we can help.
- A short written plan with a fixed price. Usually within a few days.
- We build it, show you, and adjust until it fits. Then we stay reachable.
CruLink. Los Angeles, California. Fixed-price projects, quoted before any work starts.
