Inventory management for small businesses
Every stock change in ShopPilot is recorded — sales, purchases, returns, transfers and wastage — so the number on screen matches the shelf.
A ledger, not a spreadsheet
- Stock can only change through recorded movements; corrections are new entries, never edits.
- Weighted average cost is updated on every purchase.
- Import and export products as CSV.
Purchases and suppliers
- Receive purchases against suppliers and track what you owe.
- Record supplier payments and purchase returns.
More than one location
- Branches and warehouses with transfers between them (Multi-branch plan).
- Stock value by location on the owner dashboard.
Questions
- Do I need special hardware?
- No. ShopPilot runs in the browser on a laptop, desktop or tablet. USB barcode scanners that type like a keyboard and most receipt printers work through the browser’s print dialog.
- Does it work without internet?
- Not yet. ShopPilot is online-first: it shows a clear warning when the connection drops and never marks a bill as paid unless the server confirmed it. Offline billing is planned but not available.
- Is my data shared with anyone?
- No. Each shop’s data is kept separate and only your staff can see it. We never sell merchant or customer data, and advertising never uses your sales or customers.
