What It Is

Millwork.App is a browser-based cabinet design and production management tool for professional cabinetmakers, positioned as an all-in-one platform to “Design cabinets. Run your shop.” It covers 3D cabinet design, cut lists, sheet nesting, CNC G-code output, quotes, invoices, and CRM, aiming to replace traditional spreadsheets, CAD software, and paper cut sheets.

Core Features

At its core is a 3D parametric editor with real-time 3D preview and multiple editing modes. It can handle parameters for shelves, face frames, doors, drawers, edge banding, moldings, and more. On the production side, the feature set is fairly complete: it automatically generates cut lists and part drawings, supports 2D sheet bin-packing nesting with grain direction, and can output CNC G-code, preview toolpaths, and download .nc files. On the management side, it includes a material library, CSV supplier price imports, cost estimation, customer CRM, quotes, invoices, project history, and PDF shop drawings.

Pricing and Collaboration

The public pricing is relatively clear: Pro costs $49/month and includes unlimited cabinets and projects, cut lists, cost sheets, nesting, CNC, CRM, quotes, invoices, and more. Enterprise costs $149/month and adds a team workspace for up to 4 users, shared projects/materials/customers/quotes/invoices, and priority support. A 14-day free trial is available, with no charge before day 15 and cancellation via Stripe. The site also mentions that the free plan is a real product, but it does not disclose the feature limits of the free tier.

Pros and Cons

The main advantage is end-to-end coverage of the cabinet shop workflow. It is also web-native, requiring no installation and not tied to a specific workstation, making it suitable for use on a shop-floor computer or a tablet at a client site. Its fixed pricing and the lack of per-cabinet fees are also helpful for small shops trying to control costs. The drawbacks are that it does not disclose details around data security, backups, compliance certifications, APIs, third-party integrations, or permissions. Enterprise is capped at 4 users, so scalability for larger teams still needs to be confirmed.

Who It’s For and Access from China

Millwork.App is best suited to solo or small custom cabinet shops, as well as teams that need to connect design directly with quoting and CNC production. Public materials do not describe access conditions from China; payment information appears to be Stripe-related only, and there is no disclosure of a Chinese interface, local payment methods, or China-based after-sales support. For deployment in China, teams should first test network stability, CNC post-processor compatibility, and fit with local material and quoting practices. Alternatives worth comparing include Cabinet Vision, Mozaik, Polyboard, as well as Chinese custom home design platforms such as 三维家 and 酷家乐.
