We don't sell software. We build it around your floor.

Every factory runs differently. Different machines, different shifts, different bottlenecks. That's why generic SaaS keeps failing on production floors — it bends your workflow to fit the tool.

Pranavex flips that. We sit down with you, study your operation, and design a custom production management system built only for you. From scheduling logic to quality checks, every screen matches how you actually work.

"Every build gets our full attention — no divided sprints, no junior handoffs. Your system is the only thing on our floor."

Get a real number
Mid-points from published manufacturing benchmarks — not internal claims. The 40% / 35% / 15-min figures sit on the conservative end of MES / lean-manufacturing case-study data (McKinsey Industry 4.0 surveys, OPS-1 OEE benchmarks). Your real number depends on your floor — if you're already running tight, you save less. If you're on spreadsheets and shouting across the floor for status, you save much more.
How we calculate this — the actual mechanism, not magic

Three savings lines, three honest mechanisms. If any of these don't match your floor, the calculator is wrong for your shop — say so on the call.

01 Downtime recovered · 40% reduction

Most unplanned downtime isn't the machine failing — it's the machine sitting idle after something failed, while a supervisor figures out what the next job is, where the right tool went, or who's still on break. A live work-order + machine-status board collapses that "what's next?" gap from 20+ minutes to under a minute.

Why 40%, not 70%: The McKinsey 2023 manufacturing digitization report cites 30–50% reductions across deployed MES systems. We use the middle. The other 60% of your downtime — real machine failures, preventive maintenance, shift changes — is on you and your maintenance schedule, not on software.

02 Scrap & rework cut · 35% reduction

Operators catch defects in real time instead of at the end of the lot. SPC charts flag drift before the next 200 parts go bad. Lot-level traceability means when a defect does escape, you know exactly which raw-material batch and which machine produced it — so you scrap 12 parts, not 800.

Why 35%, not 80%: A 2022 Industry Week scrap-reduction survey of mid-size manufacturers reports 25–55% reductions after deploying real-time QC. We use 35%. Some of your scrap is from operator error or bad raw material upstream — software can't fix those.

03 Admin / scheduling hours reclaimed · 15 min/machine/day

This one's not from a benchmark — it's from watching supervisors work. The average supervisor on a 10-machine floor spends 2–3 hours/day on: updating the whiteboard, calling operators for status, hunting for the right setup sheet, copying numbers into Excel, "where's the next job?" conversations. That's roughly 15 min per machine per day.

Why 15 min, not 30: Half of that admin time stays. You still need supervisors looking at the floor. The other half — the data-entry and chase-down work — goes away when the system is the source of truth.

Three things we won't tell you on this calculator:
  • How long it takes your people to actually use the system in anger (4–8 weeks, in our experience — that's why we train on-site)
  • The morale lift when supervisors stop yelling across the floor (real, but not in dollars)
  • How much you'll save by not hiring the planner you were about to hire because Excel was getting out of hand (often the biggest line, but too floor-specific to model here)

Inside an actual factory dashboard we built.

A real system running on a real floor — 11 modules, live tooling and machine status, daily plant overview. Client name, layout and data anonymised. The shape is real, the numbers are not.

Book a quick call

We built it to match how a real shop actually runs — not how software thinks it should run.

Something that keeps production, quality, and inventory in sync without people chasing updates or fixing the same problems over and over.

It's built so you can walk the floor, see what's going on, and actually trust the information you're looking at.

That's why we built Pranavex.

Modern toolchain. Engineer judgment.

We use AI the way good shops use CNC — to do precise work faster, not to skip the work. Here's exactly what that means for your build.

AI-Augmented Development

We ship in 2–3 weeks because we use the same AI tools the best engineering teams use.

Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot — they sit alongside us while we build, the same way a good draftsman uses CAD instead of a pencil. Boilerplate code, type-checks, doc-strings, integration scaffolds: AI handles them in seconds. The architecture decisions, the floor logic, the calls about your CNC vs your press cell — those stay with the engineer.

What This Means For You

Same engineer quality. Half the calendar. None of the agency overhead.

A 2018 build took 6 months and a team of 4. The same build today takes 3 weeks with 1 engineer + the right tooling. We pass that compression directly to you — that's how a $24k–$60k price tag is even possible for code you'll own forever. It's not corner-cutting. It's leverage.

Where AI Stops

AI never writes your floor logic. We do.

An LLM has never walked a shop floor, watched a mold changeover, or heard a supervisor explain why job 4471 needs to go before 4470 today. That context lives in our heads after the discovery call — and it's what ends up in your system. AI accelerates the typing. The thinking is still ours.

Plain promise. Every line of code we ship gets read, tested, and adjusted by a human engineer before it touches your floor. We don't push AI-generated code blindly. The reason we can deliver fast and right is that we use modern tools at the parts that should be fast (scaffolding, types, tests) and slow ourselves down at the parts that shouldn't be fast (your unique workflow).

Why operations leaders pick us over an enterprise MES.

01

Delivered in 2–3 Weeks

No drawn-out enterprise rollouts. We scope tight, build fast, and ship a working system your floor uses on day one.

02

It Fits Your Floor from Day One

Your machines, your shift patterns, your part numbering. The system speaks your floor's language by go-live. No 6-month "configuration project" first.

03

No Bloat. No Subscriptions.

You own the system. One clear price for what you actually need. No seat counts. No surprise renewals.

Your code. Your servers. Your data. Source delivered on handover. No lock-in, no per-seat licensing, no usage fees.

How we stack up against the alternatives.

Honest answers to the questions you're already asking.

Who owns the software after delivery?
You do. We hand over the full source code, deployment scripts, and documentation. You can host it on your own servers, modify it, or hire someone else to extend it later — no permission needed from us.
How can you really deliver in 2–3 weeks?
We don't start from a blank screen. Every module you pick is built on a pre-tested foundation we've deployed across multiple shops — your CNCs, your molds, your shift patterns go into a system that already works. We're not building from zero, we're adapting what's already proven.

Day 7 gives you a clickable build. Day 14 has it running alongside your floor. Day 21 you own it — source code, docs, everything.
What if we need changes 6 months later?
You have three options: (1) hire us back at a clear hourly rate, (2) have your internal team modify the code — it's yours, (3) use any other developer. Most clients pick a small monthly support retainer for peace of mind, but it's optional.
Do you integrate with our CNCs / ERPs / accounting tools?
Yes. We build custom connectors for common CNCs (Fanuc, Haas), injection-molding press controllers, ERPs (SAP, Odoo, QuickBooks, NetSuite), and any system with an available API or structured data export (OPC-UA, CSV, REST). We confirm feasibility in the first meeting.
How do payments work?
Three milestones: 30% on signed scope, 40% on pilot acceptance, 30% on handover. Fixed price, no surprise change orders — anything outside scope is clearly quoted before any work starts.
Where is Pranavex based?
Ontario, Canada — Eastern Time. We overlap with every North American time zone and are reachable 7am–7pm ET. Discovery and handover are typically on-site; the build itself happens remotely with daily check-ins.
