Early-access Windows scheduling software
Visual production scheduling for small manufacturers.
SequenceBoard helps job shops and production teams turn messy spreadsheets, whiteboards, and tribal knowledge into a schedule they can see, adjust, and improve.
Windows desktop app · Early access · Built for job shops, machine shops, and small production teams
Scheduling should not depend on one overloaded spreadsheet.
Many small shops are trying to manage real production work with tools that were never built for scheduling. Jobs move. Machines get overloaded. Setup time matters. Priorities change. Materials are missing. And too often, the whole schedule lives in a spreadsheet, on a whiteboard, or in one person’s head.
SequenceBoard gives your schedule a visual home.
Instead of managing production as rows in a spreadsheet, SequenceBoard gives you a visual board where jobs and operations can be arranged across machines and resources. The goal is simple: make the schedule easier to understand, easier to adjust, and easier to improve.
Visual machine/resource lanes
See work organized around the machines and resources that actually drive production.
Drag-and-drop scheduling
Move work visually as priorities, capacity, and shop-floor reality change.
Job and operation records
Keep scheduling context tied to jobs and the operations needed to complete them.
Setup and run-time planning
Account for the time details that spreadsheet rows often hide.
Demo data included
Explore the product with sample scheduling data before entering your own workflow.
Practical shop workflows
Built for job shops, machine shops, fabrication shops, print shops, and production teams.
See SequenceBoard in use
The current build gives small shops a practical scheduling workspace: timeline lanes, work queues, task details, resource lists, validation cues, and guardrails that help prevent overlapping work.
