Inventory Buddy
A stock app for small shopkeepers that flags what is running low, what is about to expire and what to buy.
A first look
Brand and welcome screens only. Feature screens are not shown here.
Problem
Small shops lose money on stock that expires unnoticed and shelves that run empty, because tracking it by hand is slow.
Vision
A simple tool a shopkeeper can use in minutes a day, in their own language.
Core features
Barcode scanning
Stock reminders with quiet hours and snooze (web)
One backup format shared across platforms
Regional catalog and item sharing, which needs the catalog server
Optional AI assistant and photo capture, which need a proxy
