IronClad builds the AI and automation systems that eliminate wasted labor, lost revenue, and repetitive work for manufacturers, distributors, and industrial businesses. Built by a manufacturing engineer, not a software agency.
30-minute discovery call · No pitch deck · You leave with a written list of opportunities either way
These are the standards every engagement is scoped against, not averages across clients.
We walk your operation the way a manufacturing engineer would: order intake, quoting, scheduling, the shop floor, the back office. Then we put a dollar figure on every place people are doing work a system should be doing.
