"Stocksmith was a dream come true. I had about 50 scraps of paper with notes and was manually calculating my COGS at the base of my recipes. Now, everything is in Stocksmith and when I manufacture a product, it updates my inventory as well."

Frequently asked questions

How does the free trial work?
Sign up for any plan and get full access to every feature for 14 days—no credit card required. Add your materials, build a bill of materials, and run a manufacture to watch stock deduct automatically. At the end of the trial, subscribe or walk away with no obligation.
What makes Stocksmith different from other manufacturing software?
Most manufacturing software is either too basic—it just counts stock—or too heavy, built for factory floors. Stocksmith sits in between, for small-batch manufacturers: multi-level bills of materials, batch production, automatic material deductions, and true cost per unit, without enterprise pricing or a six-week implementation.
Is Stocksmith manufacturing software a fit for a small team?
Yes. Stocksmith is manufacturing software built for small-batch operations, from solo founders to teams of ten. Multi-user access is included with no per-seat fees, so staff can have their own logins to run production and update inventory. As you hire, your system already documents how things get made.
Can I import my existing materials and products?
Yes. Import materials, products, and bills of materials from a spreadsheet, and sync products and orders automatically from Shopify, Amazon, Etsy, WooCommerce, Square, and Faire. Most businesses move off their old spreadsheet in a day or two, and our support team helps if your data needs cleaning up first.
