SMEPoint LLC · Manufacturing software
Two tools. One platform. Bought once.
SMEPoint builds software for working shops and sells it the way you buy a machine: once, outright, yours to keep. SMEPoint-Desk runs the office and the floor; Carvect Pro cuts the parts.
Perpetual licences · verified offline · no telemetry
What we make
Everything a shop needs, from one maker.
Two products today, each self-contained, each a perpetual licence. A third will sit beside them on the same terms when it is ready.

How we sell our software
Four decisions, each of which costs us something.
They apply to everything on this page. That is the only reason any of them is worth stating.
Bought, not rented
The version you buy keeps working. A year of updates is included; letting it lapse stops new releases and takes nothing away.
No dependence on us
Licences verify on your own computer, against a key compiled into the application. A workstation can sit offline beside a machine.
No telemetry
What you design, quote, cut or cost stays on your computer. We collect nothing about how you use the software.
No clock, no nag
The trials run without a countdown. You judge the product with the product, and buy when it has earned it.
SMEPoint-Desk
Shop management
Run the office and the floor from one app.
A number entered at the counter is the number read on the floor and the number posted to the books. One application carries a job from a quote through making and shipping into the accounts.
- Sell — contacts and leads, quotes, sales orders and invoices
- Make — work orders with routing, labour logged by step, a live shop-floor queue
- Stock — inventory and bills of material, with shortfalls that raise a requisition
- Buy — requisitions through approval into purchase orders and receiving
- Cost — estimate against actual on every job, carried back to the next quote
More to come
Built one product at a time.
There will be more than two eventually, on this same foundation and these same terms. We would rather ship the next one late than announce it early.
