On the shop floor

Know where every job stands.

The board, the paperwork and the parts, open on any PC, phone or tablet in the shop.

Every job, always visible.

A board built for the shop floor, not a spreadsheet. See what's queued, what's running, what's out for heat treat or plating, and what's ready to ship.

  • Queued, In Progress, Outside Processing and Done columns
  • Overdue and due-today jobs flagged automatically
  • Rush, normal and low priority
  • Several people on one job, with the machine and quantities
  • Outside processing named on the job: heat treat, black oxide, plating, anything
  • New jobs added today called out at the top

Prints, certs and COCs Prints FreeCerts and COCs Standard

Print, cert, signed COC. One tap each.

Every job card carries its paperwork. Open the part print, the material cert or the signed Certificate of Conformance from the floor or the office. When a customer asks for the COC six months later, it's already there.

  • Print, Cert and COC slots on every job card
  • Print a pre-filled COC, sign it, upload the signed copy
  • Upload a PDF, or a photo straight from your phone
  • No print on file yet? Upload it from the job card and it's saved to the part
  • Included in every backup

  • Comment thread on every job
  • Log hours against a job; they feed job costing

In the office Standard

Quote it, buy for it, ship it, get paid.

The office side of the shop lives in a Management panel, so prices and margins stay out of sight of the floor.

  • Lot price or unit price, plus internal notes that never print
  • PO costs feed straight into job costing

  • Contact name, phone and address on file and on the printed PO
  • Open and total POs for every supplier
  • On-time delivery rate

Getting started

Up and running in an afternoon.

No IT department, no server to configure, no router settings.

1

Install

Run the installer on any Windows PC on your shop network. Pylvos runs in the background and starts with the PC.

2

Set up your shop

Enter your key, name your shop and add your people. Import your prints folder in one go.

3

Open it anywhere

Anyone on your Wi-Fi types pylvos.local or scans the QR code. Nothing to install on phones or tablets.

Common questions.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. Pylvos runs on your own network, so the shop keeps working when the internet is down. It checks in with our license server once a day. On Standard, after two weeks without reaching us, the Standard features pause until it reconnects. Nothing is deleted.

Where does my data live?

On your hardware, at your shop. Your jobs, parts, prints and certs never leave the building. The only thing that reaches our servers is the license check.

Can my people use it on their phones?

Yes. Any device on your shop Wi-Fi opens Pylvos in a browser at pylvos.local, or by scanning the QR code in Settings. Many shops keep a tablet near the machines.

What's in Free, and what needs Standard?

Free covers the shop floor for up to 3 people: the job board, calendar, parts library with prints, comments and status history. Standard ($40/month) adds certs and signed COCs, quoting, purchase orders, suppliers, customers, job costing, time tracking, supervisor roles and unlimited people. Compare plans.

What happens if I cancel?

Your data stays on your PC. You keep Standard until the end of the period you paid for plus 7 days, then Pylvos runs on the Free plan. You can still view your quotes, purchase orders and certs.

What's your refund policy?

All payments are final and non-refundable, which is why there's a Free plan and a 14-day free trial of Standard. See our Terms of Service.
