Module IC · Inventory Controller
Stock numbers you can actually trust.
Inventory Controller tracks what’s on the shelf, what’s running low, and what’s on order — so a job doesn’t sit waiting on material, and nobody has to count everything by hand to find out.
What it fixes
- Stock counted by hand, and nobody fully trusts the number
- Running out of a material halfway through a job
- Purchase orders lost in email threads
- No record of who adjusted stock, or why

Questions on the job
Inventory Controller, answered.
Can I count stock with a phone?
Yes. Stock takes can be counted by scanning each item’s barcode or QR label with the phone’s camera. You can also export a count sheet, count on paper, and import the numbers back from CSV.
Does it handle items I make myself?
Yes. Mark an item as made in-house and give it a bill of materials. When a work order for it completes, the finished items are added to stock.
Does it support multiple warehouses?
Not at the moment. Inventory Controller tracks one stock count per item. If you need separate locations, tell us — it helps shape what’s built next.
