One person, in Texas.

Why the prices are on the website

Most software in this category makes you book a call to find out what it costs. That exists so a salesperson can size you up first. I would rather you know on the first visit whether $479 a month is plausible for your shop, decide without talking to anyone, and spend the call on your actual machines if you want one at all.

It also keeps me honest. A published price is the same price for the twelve-person shop and the two-hundred-person shop.

Why the encryption page says what it says

The FAQ and the privacy policy both state plainly that part geometry is uploaded, that Lasertally holds the key, and that this is therefore not end-to-end encryption. Every competitor with a cloud has the same architecture. Most describe it in a way that lets you assume otherwise.

I write it down because a one-person company cannot survive being caught overstating something, and because the shop that actually cannot accept it needs to know before they buy, not after. There is a local-only switch for that shop.

Why the numbers on this site are specific

$1,955.08 is a real quotation from a real fabrication shop, reproduced by the quoting engine to the cent. 346 pierces came off a real customer STEP file whose drawing said fewer. 1,800 is the number of automated tests that run before a release ships, and a build that does not reproduce the reference quotes exactly does not ship.

None of those are round, because none of them were chosen. Round numbers on a software website are usually somebody's estimate of what sounds credible.

What I will not do

• Per-quote fees or a cut of your jobs. Some platforms charge per part quoted or take a percentage of web-store orders. What you make on a job is not my business.
• Invent a compatibility list. Lasertally posts rotary G-code and an unrolled DXF. I will not publish a table of machine brands I have not actually posted to. Tell me your controller and I will tell you straight whether it is dialed in.
• Hold your data hostage. Your quotes and rate card live in local files on your machine. Subscribe for 12 months and the version you are running is yours to keep permanently.
