Luke's Inventory: when spreadsheets break
Commissioned inventory software when the spreadsheet stopped being a tool.
You are paying rent — SaaS subscriptions or spreadsheet labor — for tools that do not fit how the shop actually runs.
Commissioned software you keep after the build: inventory, POS, CRM, invoicing, operations boards.
A concrete workflow that already hurts, with someone who can use what we ship.
A desire for another rented SaaS catalog, or a project with no operator to run the tool.
Commissioned inventory software when the spreadsheet stopped being a tool.
Schema, mobile flow, and floor coverage for a live warehouse.
In-person sales and web orders on the same board — with the gaps named.
Pipeline and deals without enterprise SaaS rent.
We use the operations software we build.
Project operations built for programs, not drag-and-drop theatre.
Say what is breaking, what you have tried, and what “done” would look like.
