MatruOS for a cricket bat maker
Set up the way a cricket bat maker runs: bats by willow and grade (English willow grades 1-4, Kashmir willow), junior sizes, tennis-ball bats; player-edition custom bats; clefts sold to other makers (Kashmir units); repairs and re-handling. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.
