Know the take-home before the saw starts.

Cutwise turns a hanging weight and a customer's cut choices into a live take-home estimate, then prints a clean one-page cut sheet for the block. Beef, pork and lamb. Whole, half or quarter.

"How much meat will I actually get?"

Every share customer asks it. They pay on hanging weight and take home less, because bone, fat and trim stay at the shop. On a paper cut sheet the answer comes from memory, and it changes every time steaks turn into ground.

Cutwise works it out from the real weight and the real choices, and works it out again the moment a choice changes.

Three steps at the counter.

  1. STEP 1

    Weigh in

    Pick beef, pork or lamb and whole, half or quarter. Type the carcass weight off the rail scale and the share's hanging weight shows beside it.

  2. STEP 2

    Walk the primals

    Go through the animal one primal at a time: which cut, how thick, how many per pack, what size roast, what size ground pack. The estimate updates as you go.

  3. STEP 3

    Print for the block

    One page with every primal, cut, detail and estimated weight, plus packaging, extras and notes. The cutter never has to come and ask.

Trade steaks for ground. Watch the freezer change.

This is Cutwise's own beef catalog, working. Change the weight, the share or any cut and the take-home moves with it, primal by primal.
