Craftybase Stocksmith

Why?

AI assistant connection and API (beta)

Stop exporting a report to find out what's in stock.

Connect an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT to your live Stocksmith data and ask in plain words: what's in stock, what a recipe uses, what you've bought. Or read the same numbers into the dashboard, spreadsheet or system you already run, without typing them in twice.

Start my free 14-day trial → No credit card required

The AI assistant connection and API are in beta and read-only, for Business and Growth, trial accounts on those plans included. On Pro, Studio or Indie, change plan first. Already on Business or Growth? Connect your assistant.

Ask your assistant. Skip the export.

You already ask an AI assistant about everything else. Now it can know your stock too. Once it's connected, it looks things up in your live Stocksmith account, so checking stock, a recipe or a purchase stops meaning a report, an export and a squint.

The AI assistant connection (beta) is read-only for every account that has it. Your assistant can look things up, and nothing it does changes your Stocksmith data.

Try asking

  • “How much flour do we have, and how much is on order?”
  • “What goes into the 50ml serum?”
  • “What have we bought from our packaging supplier?”

What your assistant can look up

  • Materials: what's on the shelf, what's on order and what each unit costs
  • Products and components: stock for every variation
  • Recipes: what goes into each one
  • Manufactures: the production runs you've recorded
  • Purchases: what you've bought, and from which supplier

Try it before you commit

The AI assistant connection (beta) and API access (beta) are on Business and Growth, trial accounts on those plans included, so you can try both on a free 14-day trial. Both are read-only.

On Pro, Studio or Indie, change plan first. The pricing page shows what else comes with Business and Growth.

Connect your assistant. No key to paste.

In beta Primary user only

Setup is done by your account's primary user. If you're not the primary user, the connection is refused.

1

Add a connector

In your assistant's settings (Claude or ChatGPT, for example), add a new connector and point it at https://mcp.stocksmith.io/mcp.

2

Sign in and approve

Your assistant registers itself with Stocksmith and takes you to a sign-in and approval screen. Approve it, and you're connected.

3

Check Connected Apps

Once you approve, the connection appears under Settings > Connected Apps. You can see when it connected and when it was last used, and revoke it at any time.

The full steps are in the help article Using the Stocksmith API.

Your numbers, in the tools you already run (beta)

Get your stock, recipes and purchases into the dashboard, spreadsheet or system you already use, without typing them in twice. The API reads the same data as the assistant, read-only, for your scripts, dashboards and other systems.

The primary user creates personal API keys in Settings > API Keys. The help articles Using the Stocksmith API and Do you have an API available? cover creating a key and what you can read.

A straight word about the beta

The AI assistant connection and the API are in beta, and the beta has no promise: either can change while it runs.

Want a hand?
