API & Integrations

One platform, not a patchwork

How it all connects

Every cert turns into usable data the moment it lands, so traceability starts before the metal ever reaches the yard. Every heat number is tracked from goods-in to despatch, and every audit trail is built in as standard. Your process and your data, not locked into someone else's workflow.

  1. Cert lands

    Procurement uploads the mill report from the inbox. The system tags the material properties automatically. No retyping, no renaming. Quality sees flagged material early and approves it before the goods arrive.

  2. Stock linked

    When the truck shows up, Goods In bulk uploads the items with their heat codes. The new stock links back to the original properties without another round of manual matching.

  3. Job matched

    Design engineers match stock quickly, without hunting through documents or guessing which batch belongs where. Production reserves the right material and uses it on the job.

  4. Cert pack despatched

    Quality Control and Despatch generate branded cert packs and send them with the goods. Customers get what they need to receive, approve, and pay without extra back-and-forth.

Common Questions

Which GoSmarter solution should I start with?
Most customers start with compliance. Certs are live from day one and the audit trail builds itself. Every other capability β€” inventory, cutting, operations β€” runs better once the cert data is clean and linked.
Do all the solutions come with every pricing tier?
No. Features unlock by tier. Starter gives you the traceability foundation. Workshop adds compliance automation. Production adds AI cut planning tied to certified material. Scale covers multi-site enterprise rollout. Start where you need to and grow into the rest.
How does GoSmarter connect to my existing systems?
Through a REST API included from the Starter tier, CSV import and export for a simple start, or an MCP server for AI agents such as Claude. See the integration strategy for how this fits alongside your ERP.

How the savings stack up

Most customers tackle one problem first and find the savings compound quickly. Cutting scrap by 30–50% reduces your material cost directly. Recovering 100+ hours of admin time a year frees your planners to focus on throughput. Better stock visibility cuts over-ordering, releasing cash tied up in material you don’t need yet. Better order visibility improves On-Time In-Full (OTIF) performance, so revenue stays protected and customer relationships stay intact. None of these require a rip-and-replace.
