Time is precious.

Let TaroStack automate the busywork.

TaroStack brings inventory, purchasing, and production together for small businesses. Know what you have, what you’re making, and what you need to buy, all in one place. It’s not just inventory software, it’s an inventory automation engine.

  • Works with Square & QuickBooks
  • Works offline on the floor
  • Lots, expiry & recalls
  • Recipes, batches & true cost
  • Reorder before you run out
  • Scan with the phone in your pocket

  • Kitchens
  • Farms & growers
  • Makers & crafters
  • Soap & candles
  • Local shops

Running a small business shouldn’t mean running on guesswork.

  • “Why is the count off?!

    The spreadsheet says 40.The shelf has 12.”

    Sales, batches, spills and deliveries all land somewhere different, so the count is wrong within a week of the last stocktake.

    With TaroStack

    One ledger behind everything. A sale, a batch, a breakage and a delivery all move the same number, as they happen.

    No month-end reconciling

  • “Where is the paperwork?!

    Whose lot number went into this batch?”

    The answer lives on a clipboard in the back, in somebody’s memory, or nowhere — and you only ever need it on the worst possible day.

    With TaroStack

    Every batch records what went into it as you make it. One search shows every product a delivery touched and every customer who got one.

    Seconds, not an afternoon

  • “How are we out of stock again?!

    I thought we ordered these already!”

    Ordering on gut feel means paying to rush a delivery, or thousands of pounds of stock sitting on a shelf doing nothing.

    With TaroStack

    TaroStack watches what actually sells and what your suppliers actually take, and tells you what to order before it becomes a problem.

    Fewer rush orders, less cash on the shelf

With TaroStack, the story of each product is just one click away.

  1. A driver getting a delivery signed for at the back of the van.

    Receive

    A delivery arrives. You check it against the order on your phone at the door, and what came in is on the shelf before the van has gone.

    Delivery On the shelf
  2. A potter smoothing the rim of a bowl in his studio, under a Made in Hawaiʻi sign.

    Make

    You run a batch. TaroStack takes the ingredients off the shelf, remembers which ones you used, and works out what the batch really cost.

    Ingredients A batch
  3. A shopkeeper handing a customer her order across the counter, both laughing.

    Sell

    It goes on sale. Your till sees the same count you do, and every sale comes off the batch it actually came from.

    A batch Sold & synced
  4. A warehouse worker scanning a barcode among the shelves.

    Trace

    A supplier calls about one delivery. You see every batch it went into and every customer who got one, in seconds rather than days.

    One delivery Every order

TaroStack works smarter so you don't work harder.

Always knows what’s where

Always knows what’s where

Every item, every site, every shelf, updated the moment stock moves, so the number on the screen is the number on the shelf. No end-of-day reconciling.

app.tarostack.com
Tells you what to do next

Tells you what to do next

Reorder points worked out from what actually sells, not typed in and forgotten. Exceptions in plain words, what will run short and what will arrive too late, with the decision it wants from you at the top.

app.tarostack.com
Knows what everything is made of

Knows what everything is made of

Track what a batch actually uses and yields. Your real costs calculate automatically, item by item, based on true expenses rather than guesswork in a spreadsheet.

app.tarostack.com
Costs itself as it goes

Costs itself as it goes

Record what a batch really used and really yielded, and the true cost comes out the other end automatically — item by item, at what it actually cost you, not a guess typed into a spreadsheet afterward.

A stock count in progress on a phone: one shelf counted, the next being typed on the keypad

Count inventory right from the palm of your hand.

Scan a barcode right from your phone's camera. No signal? No problem - keep working offline and it'll automatically push the data through the second you're reconnected.

Buying, making and selling, all counting from the same source.

Inventory

Every item, every location, every lot.

  • Stock by location, whether that’s a kitchen, a warehouse, a shop or a market stall
  • Lots and expiry dates, with first-expired, first-out picking
  • Quick counts from your phone, even when the Wi-Fi drops
  • A full history of who moved what, when, and why

Production

Recipes that know what’s on the shelf.

  • Recipes and bills of materials with units that convert
  • Plan batches and spot shortages before you start
  • Record real yields, waste and the lots you used
  • True cost per batch, so pricing isn’t a guess

Purchasing

Reorder before you run out.

  • Supplier catalogs with pack sizes, prices and lead times
  • Reorder suggestions based on what actually sells
  • Clean purchase orders, ready to send
  • Receive against the PO and capture lot numbers at the door

Fully functional enterprise software.

  • Barcode scanning

    Scan items, lots and shelves with your phone camera or a Bluetooth scanner.

  • Offline-friendly

    The app opens with no signal. Counts, receipts, batches and moves are kept on the device and sent by themselves when the Wi-Fi is back.

  • Roles & permissions

    Your crew sees what they need. Costs and margins stay with the people who need them.

  • Units that convert

    Buy by the case, stock by the each, cook by the gram. TaroStack does the math.

  • Bring your spreadsheets

    Import items, recipes, suppliers and opening stock to get going fast, straight from Xero, WooCommerce, Stripe or Etsy exports.

  • Your data is yours

    Export everything, any time, as CSV or Excel, the files Xero, WooCommerce, Stripe and Etsy import. No lock-in, no hostage situations.

  • Recalls in minutes

    Trace a lot back to what it was made from and forward to who it shipped to. Run a drill before you ever need one.

  • Square at the counter

    TaroStack connects to Square, so counter sales come off the same stock as everything else.

  • Expiry, watched for you

    Oldest stock goes out first, and anything close to its date is flagged while there is still time to sell or use it.

Ask your own assistant what to make on Saturday.

Your business, answerable in plain English. Give an AI assistant a key from Settings and it can do anything the app can do, and nothing you haven’t allowed. Ask it what’s short, what to make, what to order, and it answers from your shelves, not from thin air.

  • Connect Claude, Cursor or any assistant that speaks MCP

    It reads your stock, lots, orders and plan, and, if you let it, records a count or drafts a purchase order for you to approve.

  • A plain API, fully described

    Every read and every change, documented as OpenAPI. Your website, your accountant’s script, your labels printer.

  • Export anything as CSV

    Every list has an export. Your data is yours; there’s nothing to hold hostage.

Your assistant, on your data

“What do I need to make for Saturday’s market, and what am I short on?”

  • Read 3 open orders
  • Read 2 recipes
  • Checked the shelves at 4 sites
  • Taro chips, sea salt 3 oz market sells ~60 a week · 24 on hand make 8 cases
  • Kūlolo, 8 oz tray last Saturday sold 9 · 3 came back make 12
  • Taro corm, raw the Waiāhole delivery lands Thursday short 12 kg

Every figure cites the order, the recipe or the shelf it came from — nothing invented. It can draft the purchase order too, and wait for you to approve it.

Copacking

Make it for your clients. Keep every client apart.

Every item says whose it is: yours, made for a client, or a client’s own. Their goods and yours never mix, on the shelf or on the books.

  • Client-owned inventory. Received at no cost, kept apart, never in your stock value.
  • Toll runs and production fees. Their goods and yours in one batch; your fee and materials go on their bill.
  • Client-specific deliveries and charges. Their goods go back with no price, wherever they say; your fees are billed on their own lines.

Questions, answered.

Do I need a till to use TaroStack?

No. TaroStack works on its own at app.tarostack.com. If you sell at a Square till, we connect it with you, and its products, locations, sales and stock come across.

Who is TaroStack for?

Independent businesses that make or sell physical goods: food and drink makers, farms, bakeries, roasters, breweries, crafters and local shops. Whether it’s just you in a shared kitchen or a crew with a warehouse.

How do I start?

Create an account at app.tarostack.com, add your first items (or import them), and count what's on the shelf. Connect your Square till when you're ready, and we set it up with you; nothing has to be migrated. If you'd like a hand with anything else, ask, and we do it with you.

How much does it cost?

Four plans by size, not by feature, each with TaroCore Credits: Starter at $9.99 a month for one site, one person and 50 SKUs, Growth at $39 for three people and 3,000 SKUs, with allergen tracking, Business at $89 for up to three sites with copacking, Pro at $199 for up to seven sites and 25 people, plus the API and your own assistant. Larger operations get Enterprise pricing to fit. Every plan comes fully feature-packed with robust lot tracking, expiration controls, and recall management, because your business deserves complete peace of mind right out of the box. Two months free when you pay yearly.

Can I bring my existing spreadsheets?

Yes. Import items, recipes, suppliers and opening stock, from your own spreadsheets or straight from what Square, QuickBooks, Xero, WooCommerce, Stripe and Etsy export, so you’re not starting from scratch.

Can my own software or AI assistant use it?

Yes. Everything the app does is available through a documented API, and any assistant that speaks MCP (Claude, Cursor and others) can read your stock and, with your permission, record changes. Keys are made in Settings and only see what you allow.

Will it work on a phone or tablet?

Yes. TaroStack runs in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, and everyday tasks like counting and receiving keep working when the Wi-Fi drops.

Let’s get your stack in order.
