Core Features

Everything your shop floor needs,
in one intelligent platform

From job creation to delivery, CapPlan orchestrates your entire production workflow with precision and AI-driven intelligence.

Smart Job Management

Create and manage work orders with full detail — part numbers, cycle times, setup times, priorities, and difficulty ratings. Live formula preview calculates total job hours instantly.

Core

Automated Scheduling Engine

Priority-aware scheduler automatically assigns jobs to departments based on capacity, due dates, and criticality. Flags overloaded resources and missed deadlines before they happen.

Planning

Real-Time Capacity Tracking

Monitor utilization across all departments with daily, weekly, and 14/21/30 days horizon views. Visual heat maps instantly show bottlenecks and idle capacity.

Visibility

AI Predictive Duration

Machine learning engine analyzes historical job data to predict actual completion times with confidence scores. Warns when variance is high so you can plan buffers proactively.

ML Engine

AI Chat Assistant

Ask questions about your production in plain English. "Which jobs are at risk this week?" or "What's our machining utilization?" — get instant, data-driven answers from your AI co-planner.

AI

Deep Analytics

Multi-tab analytics with throughput trends, variance tracking, cycle time benchmarks, and department performance breakdowns. Export to CSV or print PDF reports.

Insights

Role-Based Access Control

Configurable roles for Plant Managers, Supervisors, Operators, QC, Finance, and Executives. Each role sees exactly the pages and actions they need — nothing more, nothing less.

Security

Department Configuration

Define unlimited departments with custom operators, shift hours, and efficiency ratings. The system dynamically recalculates available capacity whenever you adjust your workforce.

Setup

Job History & Variance Log

Full audit trail of completed jobs with actual vs. estimated hours. Track operator performance, identify repeat variance patterns, and use real data to improve future estimates.

About Us

Built by engineers,
for the shop floor

CapPlan was born out of frustration with spreadsheets. Our founders spent years inside manufacturing environments watching production planners wrestle with Excel, whiteboards, and tribal knowledge to keep operations running smoothly.

We built CapPlan to solve the real problems: Who has capacity right now? Will this job finish on time? Why do our estimates keep running over? The answers should be instant, accurate, and always available — not buried in a formula on someone's laptop.

Today, CapPlan serves fabrication shops, machining centers, assembly facilities, and multi-department manufacturers who want modern tools without the complexity of enterprise ERP systems. We're obsessed with manufacturing, and it shows in every feature we ship.

Shops that run smoother with CapPlan

We used to lose hours every Monday morning just figuring out what to load. CapPlan shows us exactly where we're at in 30 seconds. The AI prediction feature alone saved us from two late deliveries last quarter.

The scheduling engine is a game-changer for our 8-department operation. It automatically flags when we're overloaded before we commit to customers. We've cut late deliveries by over 60% since going live.

I was skeptical about the AI co-pilot, but asking it "which jobs are at risk this week?" and getting an instant, accurate answer is genuinely impressive. It's like having a planner who never sleeps.
