Time is precious.
TaroStack brings inventory, purchasing, and production together for small businesses. Know what you have, what you’re making, and what you need to buy, all in one place. It’s not just inventory software, it’s an inventory automation engine.
Ideal for
Most of the hours a small operation loses to admin go on the same three questions, asked over and over, because nothing in the business is keeping the answer.
“The spreadsheet says 40. The shelf says 12.”
Sales, batches, spills and deliveries all land somewhere different, so the count is wrong within a week of the last stocktake.
With TaroStack
One ledger behind everything. A sale, a batch, a breakage and a delivery all move the same number, as they happen.
No month-end reconciling
“Which supplier’s batch went into Tuesday’s run?”
The answer lives on a clipboard in the back, in somebody’s memory, or nowhere — and you only ever need it on the worst possible day.
With TaroStack
Every batch records what went into it as you make it. One search shows every product a delivery touched and every customer who got one.
Seconds, not an afternoon
“We’re out of jars. Again.”
Ordering on gut feel means paying to rush a delivery, or thousands of pounds of stock sitting on a shelf doing nothing.
With TaroStack
TaroStack watches what actually sells and what your suppliers actually take, and tells you what to order before it becomes a problem.
Fewer rush orders, less cash on the shelf
The number on the screen is the number on the shelf. Everything else on this page follows from that.
Every delivery, batch and sale is recorded against a lot as it happens. Nobody writes anything down twice, and nobody goes looking through a folder when somebody asks.
A delivery arrives. You check it against the order on your phone at the door, and what came in is on the shelf before the van has gone.
You run a batch. TaroStack takes the ingredients off the shelf, remembers which ones you used, and works out what the batch really cost.
It goes on sale. Shopify and Square see the same count you do, and every order comes off the batch it actually shipped from.
A supplier calls about one delivery. You see every batch it went into and every customer who got one, in seconds rather than days.

Purchasing
Reorder points, oldest-first picking, true cost per batch. The arithmetic a business runs on, worked out while you get on with the work.
Every item, every site, every shelf, updated the moment stock moves, so the number on the screen is the number on the shelf. No end-of-day reconciling.
Reorder points worked out from what actually sells, not typed in and forgotten. Exceptions in plain words, what will run short and what will arrive too late, with the decision it wants from you at the top.
Record what a batch really used and really yielded, and the true cost comes out the other end automatically, not a guess typed into a spreadsheet afterward.
Add it to the home screen. It opens with no signal, keeps what you count, and sends it when the signal is back.
TaroStack looks at your sales history, seasons and supplier lead times to suggest what to make and what to buy, and it shows its work. Every suggestion is a draft you approve.

Make one batch of 64 by Friday. You have 70 bags on hand, and next week’s forecast is about 129 (likely 116–142).
Built for the office and the floor. Everything works on a phone, in a browser, and when the Wi-Fi drops.
Scan items, lots and shelves with your phone camera or a Bluetooth scanner.
The app opens with no signal. Counts, receipts, batches and moves are kept on the device and sent by themselves when the Wi-Fi is back.
Your crew sees what they need. Costs and margins stay with the people who need them.
Buy by the case, stock by the each, cook by the gram. TaroStack does the math.
Import items, recipes, suppliers and opening stock to get going fast.
Export everything, any time. No lock-in, no hostage situations.
Trace a lot back to what it was made from and forward to who it shipped to. Run a drill before you ever need one.
Sales from Square POS come in as they happen and stock goes back out, alongside Shopify or instead of it.
Oldest stock goes out first, and anything close to its date is flagged while there is still time to sell or use it.
Your business, answerable in plain English. Give an AI assistant a key from Settings and it can do anything the app can do, and nothing you haven’t allowed. Ask it what’s short, what to make, what to order, and it answers from your shelves, not from thin air.
It reads your stock, lots, orders and plan, and, if you let it, records a count or drafts a purchase order for you to approve.
Every read and every change, documented as OpenAPI. Your website, your accountant’s script, your labels printer.
Every list has an export. Your data is yours; there’s nothing to hold hostage.

“What do I need to make for Saturday’s market, and what am I short on?”
The answer cites your orders, your recipes and the stock on your shelves, nothing invented.
Full traceability, real production costing, and planning that watches every site, without the enterprise price tag or the year-long rollout.
Speak to a real person, always, not a bot, not a ticket queue.
Get ahead of low stock, expiring batches and purchasing needs before they become a problem, and a lot more besides.
For when the weather turns and the signal drops, the app keeps working, and sends everything the moment you’re back.
One click, and TaroStack figures out automatically what changed.
