About Timberflow
Built for sawmills that want to move forward
Timberflow was born from watching sawmills run on clipboards and spreadsheets. We're building the inventory system the timber industry deserves - practical, reliable, and designed for the yard.

Our approach
Software that works the way your yard does, not the other way around
We built Timberflow alongside real sawmill operators. Every feature
comes from watching how yards actually run - the forklifts, the
weather, the connectivity gaps, the time pressure.
The result is software that fits into your existing workflow rather
than replacing it.
Why Timberflow
Sawmill software that doesn't feel like it was built in 2008.
Most timber inventory tools are clunky, desktop-bound, and need a week of training. Timberflow is the modern alternative - fast to deploy, simple to use, and built for how mills run today.
Nothing to install on site
No server humming away in the office, no SQL licences, no IT contractor on speed dial. Timberflow runs in the cloud - your team just opens it in a browser. The only hardware in your yard are the scanners.
Fixes in hours, not months
No tickets disappearing into a backlog. No waiting for the next quarterly release. Bug fixes and improvements ship directly to your dashboard and PDA - often the same day, no site visit required.
Built for sawmills, not retrofitted
Timberflow wasn't adapted from warehouse or retail software. Every screen, every scan flow, every report is designed around how timber yards actually operate.
Right-sized, not enterprise bloat
No procurement process, no drawn-out sales cycle. Timberflow does packs, scanning, dispatch and stocktake properly - without the sprawling modules and enterprise price tag you'll never use. It comes in well under what the big incumbents charge each month.
Open a browser, not a remote desktop
Older systems make you log into a server at the mill over remote desktop - fine at a desk, painful anywhere else. Timberflow works from any browser, on any device, wherever you are. No VPN, no remote desktop, no "only on the office PC".
Offline-first, not offline-maybe
Other systems need constant connectivity. Timberflow's PDA scanner works fully offline in the yard and syncs automatically when signal returns. Zero data loss, zero frustration.
Simple enough to skip the training day
If your team can use a phone, they can use Timberflow. The PDA interface is designed for gloved hands, bright sunlight, and zero patience for complicated menus.
