Yes. It runs in the browser with no account, no ads and no limits. The native Mac app is free as well.
It tests straight grids in both rotations plus mixed layouts, with rotated pieces filling the remainder, and keeps whichever yields the most. Same engine as the Mac app.

Yes. The in and cm buttons switch units and convert whatever you already typed. The presets change too: inches shows trade sizes, centimeters shows ISO sizes such as A4, SRA3 and B2.
The engine is the same, so the numbers match. The Mac app also saves your own sheets and cuts as presets, works with no connection and prints the cut plan for the operator.
