The problem
In an artisan shirt shop, the operator takes measurements in store. Then they must communicate everything to the tailors in the workshop β often with handwritten notes, WhatsApp photos, or Excel nobody updates.
A one-centimeter neck error means remaking the shirt. A lost customer.
The solution
TailorShirt is a web app used by the operator while the customer is still in store:
- Search or create the customer record
- Enter measurements with validation (plausible ranges, consistent units)
- Configure the order: fabric, collar style, cuff type, buttons
- Print the production sheet β a clear document the tailor follows in the workshop
Operational flow

Key features
Customer database
Centralized records with order history. When the customer returns, the operator finds previous measurements and can update them in a few taps.
Measurement engine
Every tailoring parameter has:
- Clear Italian labels for the operator
- Validation on allowed ranges
- Free notes for specifics (asymmetric shoulders, preferences)
Production printing
The print layout is designed for the tailorβs bench, not the screen:
- Measurements highlighted, monospace font
- Order details (fabric, collar, cuffs)
- Order code for traceability
- Compatible with standard A4 printers

Why itβs not public
Like inFormazione and Worksite Manager, TailorShirt is an internal operational tool β no reason to expose it online. The value is in the shirt shopβs daily workflow.
By the time the customer leaves the store, the tailor already has everything needed to start working.
