Platform Features

Build once. Deploy to any industry.

6 core modules that every distributor needs. Plus industry-specific compliance plugins so you never pay for what you don't use.

Accounting

Full financial suite built for distribution

Full accounting designed for how distributors actually run their businesses — not retrofitted from SaaS startups who've never seen a net terms invoice.

  • Profit & Loss with distribution-specific chart of accounts
  • AR Aging (30/60/90 buckets) with customer drill-down
  • AP management with payment scheduling
  • General Ledger with full audit trail
  • Bank reconciliation with auto-matching
  • Check printing for traditional supplier payments
  • Month-end close reduced from 7 days to under 24 hours

  • Live stock levels with WebSocket + 30s polling fallback
  • Multi-location inventory transfers
  • Lot number tracking with expiration dates
  • Automated reorder alerts with configurable thresholds
  • Bulk import/export via CSV
