About Chamfer

Named for the cut that makes a part safe to handle

We take the sharp edges off AI-built apps before anyone relies on them.

What customers built first

Four teams, four industries, one set of controls on every app.

Why we named it after an edge

Our founders’ letter on the 45° cut a machinist puts on every part, and why AI-built software needs the same finishing step before a company can rely on it.

    We replaced 14 spreadsheet processes in one quarter, and every app had a named approver before it went live.

    Our auditor asked who could see claims data. We exported the answer from the Logbook before the meeting ended.

    We described our refunds queue in one paragraph on Monday. By Thursday, 40 agents were working it behind SSO, and every action was logged.

    Our inspection app went from prompt to 60 technicians in nine days, and it runs Onsite inside our own network.

    Engineering stopped owning admin panels. We review the Specs, approve the permissions and get back to the product.

    Director of Data, Fennimore Health

    Clinic managers build their own rota tools on Stockroom, and the row-level rules mean nobody sees a patient outside their site.

Customers set the spec

Most Chamfer features began as a request from a team that runs something physical: a loading dock, a clinic rota, a round of turbine inspections. We sit with those teams before we write the first line of code.

Today 1,400 companies build on Chamfer, from a 3-person ops team in Lisbon to a 31-clinic network in Colorado. Every one of their apps has answered to the same four controls since its first version.

Small team.
Close to the work.

Everyone at Chamfer ships something in their first month, from support engineers to our finance lead. Our own expense approvals, hiring pipeline and on-call rota run on Chamfer, under the same Tolerances our customers use.

We hire people who like finishing things: engineers who read a Logbook closely, designers who care about the empty state, and security staff who would rather say yes with conditions than no.

Values

How we decide what ships

01

Finish the edge

We don’t release the rough version and promise a fix later. Every feature ships with its permissions, its log entry and its docs.

02

Show the receipts

Every number on our site has a source, and every change in our product has a name. We hold ourselves to the Logbook we sell.

03

Sit with the operators

Each quarter our engineers spend a day on a customer’s floor: a dock, a claims desk, a clinic front office. The roadmap comes back with them.

04

Respect the reviewer

The person who can say no is a customer too. We write for the security lead as carefully as we write for the builder.
