MatruOS for an imitation jewellery plating business
Set up the way an imitation jewellery plating business runs: plating charges per piece, per dozen or per gram of gold deposited by finish (gold, micro gold, rhodium, rose gold, silver, antique, black), plus lacquer or e-coat. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves
What an imitation jewellery plating business deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Gold salt cost per lot is not known so heavy-gold lots lose money when gold rises. Lots get mixed or pieces go short and the maker deducts.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 1 workflow, 3 registers and 9 licences for an imitation jewellery plating business, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.

MatruOS starts from how your business earns
