The Problem
Countertop fabrication is a massive industry running on software from 2008. The incumbent — Moraware — was built 15+ years ago on legacy technology. Shops are stuck with:
- Clunky interface that takes weeks to learn
- No AI — every data entry task is manual
- No 3D preview for customers
- Rigid pricing that doesn't match how shops quote
- No mobile support — tied to the office desktop
- Vendor lock-in — your data is trapped
- Clean modern UI — learn in an afternoon
- AI assistant for questions and price list import
- Real-time 3D countertop preview
- Flexible per-material, per-color pricing
- Works on any device with a browser
- Your data is yours — export anytime
We lived this pain. The SlabOS founding team has been in the countertop fabrication space for nearly a decade. SlabOS wasn't built because of a market opportunity — it was built out of frustration with the tools available, and the knowledge that something better was possible.

Why Now
Three forces are converging to make this the right moment:
- Generational shift. Younger shop owners expect modern, mobile-friendly, AI-powered tools. They grew up on Shopify and Square — not ASP.NET forms from 2008.
- AI inflection point. For the first time, AI can meaningfully automate tedious fabrication workflows — price list import, business intelligence, scheduling optimization.
- Incumbent stagnation. Moraware's last major product innovation was CounterGo in ~2014. Their tech stack makes it structurally difficult to add AI, 3D, or modern UX.
Why Us
- Domain expertise: The founding team has been in the countertop fabrication space for nearly a decade. They're not outsiders — they ARE the industry, and they use the product daily.
- Industry network: 7+ years of relationships with shop owners, suppliers, and trade associations. Sales are peer-to-peer, not cold outreach.
- Built, not planned: SlabOS is live and functional at slabos.org. This isn't a pitch deck for vaporware — you can log in and draw a countertop right now.
- AI-native architecture: Built from day one with AI as a core capability. AI powers business intelligence, price list import, and form template extraction.
- 10x development speed: A lean two-person engineering team that ships features at the pace of a much larger organization. The entire platform was built in under 4 months.
- Zero switching friction: One-click Moraware data migration removes the biggest objection to switching. Shops can try SlabOS with their real data before committing.
The bottom line: SlabOS is a production-ready platform built by fabricators, for fabricators, at the exact moment the industry is ready for something new. We're not asking you to bet on an idea — we're asking you to bet on a product that already works, sold by the people best positioned to sell it.
