GradeBuilt

Your stock is physical. Your business is not.

Stock on one side, the relationships that decide orders on the other.

IdentityEvery unit, not every line

01

What runs the business today

Today
Accounting software, a spreadsheet and a mailbox; every transaction entered twice.
Question
Every unit of this lot, where is it now? A week of email.

02

Every unit has an identity

The codes are already on the boxes. Reading them changes nothing in the warehouse.

Why one company does both

The physical layer

Units, lots, shelves, custody

The join

The same identity, used by both

The unit in a theatre is the unit a product page, a portal and an answer engine describe.

The commercial layer

Discovery, portals, publishing
