Connect. Control. Take Control. Of Your Shop.
Workshop automation, safety, and accountability — all in one platform. From garage shops to university labs to industrial floors. Connect, control, automate, and track your world. No required subscriptions. Data stays on-site.
Built for Your World
Whether you're a one-person shop or a 200-machine facility, GRIT scales to fit.
Automate dust collection, protect your lungs, and monitor air quality in your personal workshop. Blast gates open when your tools power on. Your collector adjusts speed automatically. No subscriptions required — your data stays on-site.
RFID access control ensures only trained students operate each machine. Track certs, log usage, monitor air.
From 10-machine cabinet shops to 200-machine production floors — automate dust, enforce safety, track assets, and cut energy waste across every zone.
Systems That Work Together
Five integrated solutions. Mix and match for your needs.
Each one works standalone — together they're unstoppable.
Automated collection that protects your people. Blast gates open when tools power on. Collector auto-adjusts speed. Zero wasted suction.
- Automated blast gates and dust collection
- VFD control for energy savings
- Air quality-triggered filtration
- Filter pressure monitoring
Tool-level security with complete accountability. If a user lacks permission, the tool will not receive power. Full usage logging and certification tracking.
- User and permission management
- Training certification tracking
- Complete audit trails
- Multi-factor authentication and mobile wallet
Know where every tool is — always. Barcode and RFID tracking for tools, consumables, and equipment. Complete checkout accountability.
- Bulk multi-asset scanning
- Automated inventory audits
- Tool checkout accountability
- Usage-based maintenance and loss prevention
Real-time air quality for health and compliance. PM1.0 through PM10.0, VOC and NOx detection, threshold alerts when conditions exceed safe levels.
- PM1.0 / PM2.5 / PM4.0 / PM10.0 sensing
- VOC and NOx detection
- Threshold alerts and auto-notifications
- Historical compliance reporting
Monitor power draw across equipment. Auto-shut-down idle machines, reduce peak demand, track energy costs per job.
- Real-time power monitoring per machine
- Idle detection and auto-shutdown
- Peak demand management
- Energy cost allocation by zone

See How GRIT Works in Your World
Your Shop Runs Itself While You Create
You got into woodworking to build things — not to wrestle with blast gates or worry about lung health. GRIT handles the boring stuff so you can focus on the craft.
- Manually opening and closing blast gates every time you switch tools
- Worrying about fine dust particles you can't see damaging your lungs
I used to spend 5 minutes per session messing with blast gates. Now I just turn on the saw and GRIT handles it. Game changer for a one-person shop.— Mike R., Hobby Woodworker, Ohio
200 Students. 40 Machines. Zero Unauthorized Access.
When you're responsible for student safety in a fabrication lab, you need more than hope — you need a system that physically prevents untrained users from powering on machines.
- Untrained students accessing dangerous equipment unsupervised
- Paper-based training logs that are always out of date
- Tools and consumables disappearing with no accountability
- No utilization data to justify budgets to admin
We went from paper sign-off sheets to RFID in one semester. Two unauthorized access attempts blocked in week one alone. Admin loves the utilization reports for budgeting.— Dr. Sarah K., Fabrication Lab Director, UIUC
10 Machines or 200. Automated Dust. Zero Wasted Energy.
Whether you're a growing cabinet shop or a 200-machine production floor, inefficiency compounds. Running a collector at full speed for one tool wastes thousands per year. GRIT brings it all under one roof.
- Dust collectors running full power regardless of active tools
- No visibility into per-machine energy consumption
- Safety compliance gaps — no electronic lockout enforcement
- Downtime from missed maintenance and lost parts
Our energy bill dropped 23% in the first quarter after deploying GRIT across all six production zones. The ROI paid for the entire system in under 4 months.— Tom W., Operations Manager, Custom Millwork Co.
Up and Running in Days, Not Months
From first call to full automation — here's how we make it painless.
Share your tools, layout, and goals. Our team maps your space and recommends the right stack.
We design a system tailored to your space — which products, where they go, how they connect.
Plug-and-play hardware. Most installations take under a day. Remote or on-site support included.
Your dashboard goes live. Dust, access, assets, air — all automated from your phone or computer.
The Gear Behind the Automation
Industrial-grade, plug-and-play hardware. Designed and assembled in the USA.
