Score: 5.3/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 5, Documentation: 6, Utility: 6)

Cutlistor is a web-based cut list optimizer for woodworkers and fabricators that calculates efficient nesting of parts on sheet or linear materials to minimize waste. It offers AI-assisted dimension extraction from sketches and real-time layout updates, running entirely in the browser without installation. The project is interesting for its practical application of optimization algorithms tailored to small workshops and hobbyists, with a clear freemium model.
