In short
NestorCut is the closest product to Zorocut we found: WebAssembly in the browser, files on the device on Free, the same €19 entry price. The difference is what comes after the nest — Zorocut prices the customer quote from it, reports cut time and pierces, and runs as a desktop app too.
Where NestorCut is better than Zorocut
- More server compute on paid plans: 4 cores on Unlimited, 8 on Pro.
- An on-screen material report on Free.

Looking for a NestorCut alternative?
Zorocut nests and quotes on your own computer — macOS, Windows, Linux or the browser — and gives CypCut, FSCUT or Raytools a layered DXF. The Free plan has unlimited nesting and 10 exports or quotes a month, with no card.
How to switch
Bring the same DXF or SVG parts; a nested-sheet DXF exported from NestorCut can be re-imported as parts.
