Know what's on the shelf without counting twice.

Floot is an AI app builder that makes inventory apps with stock counts, low-stock alerts and staff logins, so a small shop always knows what's on the shelf.

What you get

Spreadsheets break when two people update stock at once. An inventory app keeps one count that everyone sees. Floot builds one from your description, with a database, staff logins and alerts included.

  1. 01

    Products and stock

    SKUs, variants, locations and current counts in a Postgres database.

  2. 02

    Stock in and out

    Record deliveries, sales and adjustments, with who did what and when.

  3. 03

    Low-stock alerts

    Email or push when an item drops below its minimum.

  4. 04

    Suppliers and reorders

    Keep supplier details and build purchase orders from low-stock items.

  5. 05

    Staff logins

    Owner and staff roles; staff can count, owners can change prices.

From people building on Floot

“Floot allows me to build software for ourselves. We pieced together lots of software over the years, and we’ve been able to build and replace it. The first thing was replacing a form for collecting info: built in 10 minutes.”

Vendor mall and game store owner

“I think about Floot as an outsourced developer. It has the guardrails, and it doesn’t lie about what can and can’t be done.”
