Walk through every moment →
Morning

Today

Forty messages, half of them orders.

You scroll, screenshot, re-type each one into your accounting software. Half an hour gone before the day begins.

With Krated

Overnight orders parsed, stock-checked, ready to approve.

Orders arrive structured and grouped by buyer. You approve or adjust. Done in five minutes.

Mid-morning

Today

A price change that never quite lands.

You update the pricelist in Excel and email the PDF to 120 buyers. Half keep ordering from last month's version anyway.

With Krated

One change. Every buyer link updates instantly.

Prices, stock, and buyer-specific discounts live behind one link per buyer. They always see the current truth.

Midday

Today

A stockout you find out about from the buyer.

The spreadsheet said twelve. The shelf has zero. The warehouse manager is on the phone asking what to do.

With Krated

Stock moves in real time. Reorders fire before you run out.

Every order deducts stock as it lands. Low-stock thresholds fire reorders before the shelf goes empty.

Afternoon

Today

Drivers, paper runsheets, and a phone stuck to your ear.

Printed runsheets lost in vans. Signed PODs that reach your desk at six. Drivers you can't reach when a buyer calls.

With Krated

Routes planned, PODs captured, every drop on one screen.

Drivers get a digital runsheet. Photos and signatures captured on the spot. You track every drop from your desk.

Late afternoon

Today

End-of-day admin. Again.

Export today's orders. Type them into your accounting system. Email invoices one by one. Overdue list lives in a separate spreadsheet.

With Krated

Invoices and reminders write themselves.

Invoices generate as deliveries complete, straight into your accounting system. Overdue reminders go out on your schedule.

Evening

Today

Month-end is a week-long reconstruction.

Three people match paper to screen. Missing signatures. Phantom credits. Calls to buyers asking what actually happened on the twelfth.

With Krated

Books closed before you lock the door.

Every order, delivery, invoice, and payment posts to the ledger as it happens. Month-end is a download, not a reconstruction.

How you get started

From first catalogue to closed books in under a month.

No consultants, no kick-off workshops, no six-week implementation. Here is the first month on Krated, plainly.

  1. Today

    Drop in your product list

    Spreadsheet, CSV, or product PDF. Krated reads it, normalises the columns, and gives you a buyer-ready catalogue link in under a minute.

  2. Day 1

    Share the link with your first buyers

    One link per buyer. They see your catalogue, their prices, their history. No sign-up, no app to install.

  3. Week 1

    Orders arrive structured

    Overnight orders land in your inbox already structured, stock-checked, and grouped by buyer. You approve or adjust, then push to fulfilment.

  4. Week 2

    Delivery, invoicing, and books connect

    Routes assigned. PODs captured on the spot. Invoices generated as deliveries complete. Everything posts to your accounting system as it happens.

  5. Month 1

    Your team handles exceptions, not procedure

    The manual work that took half the day takes ten minutes. Your team works on the things only they can do.

Built by an operator

I ran a distribution business. I typed orders by hand. I chased buyers. I hand-counted stock at month-end. I built Krated because I got tired of doing it.
