## What is Goldsmith?

Stop guessing what your castings cost.

Goldsmith is a precision casting calculator built for working jewelers, goldsmiths, and metalsmiths — not a general math app with a gold skin on it.

Live gold and silver spot prices. Wax-to-metal weight calculations. Alloy breakdowns. Saved job history. The math bench jewelers actually need, in under 10 seconds.

WHAT GOLDSMITH DOES

LIVE SPOT PRICES
Gold and silver prices update throughout the trading day. Every quote you give is based on what the market is doing right now — not what you remembered from last week.

WAX TO METAL CALCULATOR
Input your wax weight and target metal. Get the precise casting weight accounting for density, sprue, and burnout. No more over-pouring or under-ordering.

ALLOY BREAKDOWN
Working in 18K yellow? 14K white? Platinum? Enter your target alloy and total weight — Goldsmith returns the exact component mass for every metal in the recipe.

PRICE ESTIMATOR
Factor in metal cost, labor, and overhead for a complete job price. Know your margins before you quote, not after.

BURNOUT CALCULATOR
Get the numbers right before the metal hits the flask.

SAVED JOB HISTORY
Save any calculation and come back to it at the bench. Every job organized and ready when you need it again.
