Stop running your home goods brand in rigid systems
Get the flexibility to plan demand exactly how your home goods brand works. Connect your sales and inventory, and automate the manual work.
Data is disconnected
Sales and stock are scattered across DTC, Amazon, and wholesale, so you cannot track performance by collection, material, or size in real time.
Legacy systems can't keep up
Core collections, new launches, and seasonal builds need flexible forecasting - rigid systems force oversimplified, unreliable plans.
Spreadsheets don't scale
Tracking POs, production, and allocation by hand wastes hours and invites costly mistakes.

S&OP Reporting
Tell me what is going on.
- Answers ad-hoc inventory, sales, and cost questions in chat

See which collections turn and which sit as dead cash
Every collection ranked by how fast it sells and how much cash it ties up, so you spot the build aging into dead stock before markdowns eat your margin.
- See cash tied up per collection, so you know where your money is sitting.
- Catch aging and dead stock early, before you have to mark it down.
- Track sales in real time across DTC, Amazon, and wholesale in one view.

Order ahead of the season, not behind it
Tether maps your seasonal demand against the months each build needs to produce and ship, so you see which orders land in time and which you must place right now.
- Plan builds around 6 to 12 month lead times, so stock lands before the spike.
- Forecast seasonal peaks by style, color, geography, and channel.
- See on-time and late builds color-coded, so nothing slips quietly.
