Animated assembly instructions

Hard tech unicorns build on Carbon.

From hardware startups to regulated production teams

One record from CAD to cash.

Engineering, planning, production, quality and accounting update the same data. No re-keying or cross-system reconciliation.

Configure to order

Generate each configuration from rules.

Define product parameters once. Carbon generates the BOM, routing and quoted price for each valid configuration.

→ Rule-based BOM and routing generation

→ Revision control with effectivity dates

→ Rolled-up cost at any configuration

Part configurator / BOM tree

Manufacturing execution

Run production from live data.

Track material, labor, scans, scrap and deviations as work happens. Schedules and job costs update from the same records.

→ Digital travelers with work instructions

→ QR and barcode tracking on every unit

→ Finite capacity scheduling that reacts

Shop floor / job traveler

Quality

Trace every unit to its source.

Link first articles, nonconformances, CAPAs and calibrations to production. Open any serial number to see its materials, operators, measurements and deviations.

→ Serial and lot genealogy, forwards and back

→ NCR to CAPA workflow with sign-off

→ Certificates generated from live data

Quality / traceability record

Multi-entity · Multi-location

Manage every site on one ledger.

Run one facility or multiple legal entities and locations. Carbon handles entity-specific currencies, charts of accounts and taxes with consolidated reporting.

→ Multi-entity accounting with intercompany transactions

→ Per-entity currency, COA and tax, consolidated books

→ Multi-location planning with inter-site transfers

4 entities · 2 currencies · one ledger

CMMC · ITAR

Keep regulated data in your boundary

Deploy in your VPC, on-prem or fully air-gapped. Keep CUI inside infrastructure you control while supporting CMMC and ITAR requirements.

Your database

Control the system of record

ERP, MRP, MES and QMS share a Postgres database with row-level security. You control its network, encryption, backups and retention.

Open source

Review the code before deployment

Inspect the application on GitHub, run your own security review and extend the AGPL-3.0 Community edition for your process.

Open source

Evaluate the source before you deploy

Carbon's source is public. Use the prompt below to review it against your requirements.

Evaluate Carbon for my manufacturing business. Review the repository at https://github.com/crbnos/carbon and summarize its relevant capabilities and constraints. Then ask about my products, production process, compliance requirements, current systems, and goals. Finish with 3–5 specific ways Carbon could fit my operation.

TypeScriptReactPostgresRLSREST + Webhooks

Integrate every manufacturing workflow.

MCP Docs API Docs

REST API

A generated API for every module

Carbon generates REST endpoints from its schema and publishes typed clients for TypeScript, Python and C#. Use webhooks for event-driven integrations.

MCP server

A permission-aware MCP server

The built-in MCP server exposes Carbon operations to AI agents. Every request uses the permissions of the authenticated identity.

Open source

Inspect and extend the code

The TypeScript monorepo shares generated database types across the application, API and agent tools. Run Carbon with your own models and infrastructure.
