Waste is margin you've already paid for

Get the cutting plan wrong and you either over-order and bin the offcuts, or come up short and lose a day going back to the supplier.

Working it out by hand

Graph paper and guesswork

Sketching drops on paper, eyeballing the roll width, adding a bit "to be safe", and hoping the pattern lines up. The safety margin comes straight off your profit — and a miscalculation means a wasted trip and a delayed job.

With BillyBot

The least-waste layout, instantly

BillyBot nests every drop across the real roll width, places the seams, matches the pattern, and gives you the exact material to order. Less waste, no over-ordering, and a cutting plan your fitters can work straight from.

How BillyBot builds a cutting plan

From a floor plan to a costed cutting list in four steps.

1

Add the rooms

Upload a floor plan or enter your room measurements. Multi-room and multi-area jobs are no problem.

2

Billy nests the cuts

It lays out every drop across your roll width, places seams sensibly and matches the pattern repeat.

3

See waste & material

You get a visual cutting plan and the exact material to order — sheet goods by the drop, LVT and tiles by area.

4

Straight into the quote

The material flows into your quote and order, so you price and buy exactly what the job needs.

A cutting plan that knows how flooring is bought

Built around real roll widths, drops and trade detailing — not a generic area calculator.

📐

Roll-width nesting

Lays out every drop across the actual roll width to find the least-waste layout for the job.

🧵

Pattern repeat & matching

Factors the pattern repeat in so patterned carpet, vinyl and LVT line up — and you order enough to match.

📏

Sheet goods by the drop

Vinyl, safety flooring, lino and broadloom are sized off fixed-width drops plus trim — the way you actually buy them, not net area.

🟫

LVT & tiles by area

Modular products are calculated by net area with the right allowance, so every flooring type is priced correctly.

✂️

Seam placement

Puts seams where they belong, keeping them out of doorways and high-traffic lines wherever the layout allows.

🪜

Stairs, winders & landings

Works out treads, risers, winders and landings — including the real gripper lengths you'll actually use.

♻️

Waste driven down

Picks the least-waste option and shows the offcuts, so you stop over-ordering and protect your margin.

🗺️

Visual cutting plan

A clear layout you and your fitters can view and cut from — on the web or in the mobile app on site.

🧾

Feeds your quote

The exact material flows into your quote and order, so quoting, cutting and buying all stay in sync.

Cutting plans built around the way you buy

Most "area calculators" just multiply length by width and call it a day. But you don't buy flooring by the square metre of floor — you buy carpet and vinyl by the drop off a fixed-width roll. BillyBot's cutting plan software is built around that reality, so the material it works out matches what you actually order from your supplier.

And because it's part of the same AI operator that runs your back office, the cutting plan feeds straight into your flooring quoting software and onto the job — no double-handling, no re-keying.

Simple, transparent pricing

Cutting plan software — FAQ

Upload a floor plan or enter your room measurements and BillyBot nests every drop across your roll width, places the seams sensibly, and outputs the cutting layout along with the exact material needed — for carpet, vinyl, LVT, tiles and more.

Yes. BillyBot accounts for pattern matching so patterned carpet, vinyl or LVT lines up correctly, factoring the repeat into the cutting layout and the material quantity so you order enough to match the pattern.

Roll goods such as sheet vinyl, safety flooring, lino and broadloom carpet are bought as fixed-width drops, so the material needed is more than the net floor area. BillyBot sizes material off the least-waste drops plus a trim allowance — the way you actually buy it — while LVT and tiles are calculated by net area.

Yes. BillyBot chooses the least-waste drop layout and tells you the exact material to order, so you stop guessing and over-ordering "just in case" — which protects your margin on every job.

Yes. BillyBot handles treads, risers, winders and landings, and works out the real gripper lengths needed, not just a rough perimeter figure.

Yes. BillyBot produces a visual cutting plan you and your fitters can view and work from, on the web or in the mobile app.

Yes. The material the cutting plan works out flows straight into your quote, so you price the real material required rather than a rough estimate — quoting and ordering stay in sync.
