Legacy tools are built for manufacturers with bills of materials and shop-floor routing. Most small businesses only need four things: what's in stock, where it is, when to reorder, and where it went. That's what StockSimple does — fast.
Freemium tools look cheap until your catalogue grows, then the bill multiplies overnight. StockSimple has four clear tiers — $6.99, $15, $30, $70 — with published limits, so you always know the next step.
Contractors with vans and shops with a backroom get forced into enterprise tiers elsewhere. StockSimple tracks up to 3 locations from $30/mo and 10 locations with approved transfers at $70/mo.
Snap a photo of a delivery docket or upload a supplier PDF. StockSimple reads the lines, matches your SKUs and lets you confirm before stock updates. Many tools that cost far more still make you type every line.
