Generate a full AI Inventory Management SaaS from a prompt

You describe the warehouse operation you run. StackAlchemist generates the full .NET 10 + Next.js 15 + PostgreSQL codebase, wires up SKU tracking, multi-location stock, and supplier workflows, and hands you the zip. You own the code. Deploy wherever you want.

What you get

A production-shaped AI inventory management SaaS with:

• SKU catalog with variants, units of measure, barcodes, and bulk import from CSV
• Multi-warehouse stock levels with per-location quantity on hand, reserved, and in-transit
• Suppliers and purchase orders with PO line items, expected delivery dates, and receiving workflow
• Stock transfers between locations with in-transit tracking and partial receipt support
• Reorder points and low-stock alerts per SKU per location, with configurable safety stock
• Cost tracking with FIFO, LIFO, or weighted-average valuation per SKU
• Barcode scanning scaffolding — REST endpoints designed for handheld scanner POSTs and a web-based scanning UI
• Admin dashboard for stock levels, PO status, supplier performance, and inventory valuation reports
• CI/CD via GitHub Actions — lint, typecheck, unit tests, compile verification
• Docker-compose for local development — docker compose up and you are running

All of this is generated in about 12 minutes from a single prompt. Every build is verified with dotnet build + pnpm build before you can download.

Why generate it instead of paying NetSuite

NetSuite starts at $30k/year and goes up from there. Once you add inventory, advanced warehouse management, and the per-user seats your ops team needs, you are looking at a six-figure annual contract with a 12-month minimum and an implementation partner you also have to pay. A StackAlchemist-generated codebase is $299 to $999 one time, and your warehouse team can be 5 people or 50 people for the same price.

Fishbowl is $4500/year per seat. That math works for a 2-person shop and breaks instantly for anyone running real warehouse operations. Three warehouse coordinators, a buyer, and a controller is $22,500/year forever. You own the code once and that number is zero.

Cin7 and Zoho meter you on every axis. Per-seat pricing, per-warehouse pricing, per-order tiers, and the inevitable "talk to sales" wall the second you outgrow the published plan. A generated codebase has no seats, no tiers, no usage caps. Add as many warehouses, SKUs, and scanner-toting receivers as your business actually needs.

Who this is for

• E-commerce DTC brands running 3PL warehouses who want their own inventory source of truth instead of trusting a 3PL portal.
• B2B distributors with multiple branches who need real stock visibility across locations and a buyer workflow that does not cost $50k/year.
• Manufacturers tracking raw materials, WIP, and finished goods who need cost rollups without buying an ERP.
• Operations leads who want to evaluate a compile-verified inventory backbone before deciding whether to extend it or rip it out.

Example entities generated

A typical AI inventory management generation produces entities like:

• Sku / Variant / UnitOfMeasure
• Warehouse / Location / Bin
• StockLevel / StockMovement
• Supplier / PurchaseOrder / PurchaseOrderLine
• Receipt / ReceiptLine
• Transfer / TransferLine
• CostLayer / ValuationSnapshot

The exact shape depends on your prompt. A DTC apparel brand with one 3PL generates a different graph than a 4-branch industrial distributor.

Real example: B2B electrical distributor with 3 branches

Imagine you submit this spec:

"We are an electrical wholesale distributor with 3 branches. We stock about 4,000 SKUs — wire, conduit, breakers, fittings. Each SKU has a primary supplier and a backup supplier with different lead times. We need per-branch stock levels, reorder points, and an automated buyer dashboard that shows what to reorder this week. Receivers scan barcodes on the dock. We use weighted-average costing. Transfers happen daily between branches."

StackAlchemist generates:

• Sku entity with code, description, primary_supplier_id, backup_supplier_id, unit_of_measure, default_reorder_point
• Warehouse entity per branch with code, name, address, default receiving location
• StockLevel entity with sku_id, warehouse_id, qty_on_hand, qty_reserved, qty_in_transit, reorder_point_override
• StockMovement entity recording every change with sku_id, warehouse_id, qty_delta, movement_type (receipt, sale, transfer_in, transfer_out, adjustment), reference_id
• Supplier entity with name, default_lead_time_days, payment_terms, contact info
• PurchaseOrder entity with supplier_id, warehouse_id (ship-to), status (draft, sent, partial, received, closed), expected_date
• PurchaseOrderLine entity with po_id, sku_id, qty_ordered, qty_received, unit_cost
• Receipt entity with po_id, received_at, received_by, with line-level partial-receipt support
• Transfer entity with from_warehouse_id, to_warehouse_id, status (draft, in_transit, received), shipped_at, received_at
• CostLayer entity with sku_id, warehouse_id, qty, unit_cost, received_at — feeds weighted-average rollups
• API endpoints: POST /receipts (scanner-friendly), POST /transfers, GET /buyer-dashboard?warehouse=:id (what to reorder this week), POST /adjustments, GET /valuation?as_of=:date

All wired into a Next.js admin and operator UI with a barcode-scanning page, plus a .NET backend that handles the cost-layer math and the reorder-point logic. The generated CI/CD pipeline compiles and tests on every push. Docker-compose spins up PostgreSQL, the .NET API, and the Next.js frontend in one command so your developer can poke at it on day one.

After you own the code: two next steps

Once the zip arrives and you have the repo cloned, here is what you do:

1. Import your real SKU catalog and pilot one warehouse. The generated repo includes a CSV import endpoint and a seed script. Export your current SKU master from whatever you are running today (NetSuite, Fishbowl, a spreadsheet), map columns, and load it. Pick your smallest warehouse, run weekly cycle counts against the generated stock levels for two weeks, and you have a real before/after comparison. You are now able to evaluate the generated system against your incumbent without paying anyone $30k.

2. Wire your shipping carrier and your accounting system. The generated code is not a black box — it is yours to modify. Add a ShipStationClient or an EasyPostClient to push outbound shipments. Add a nightly job that posts a journal entry to QuickBooks or Xero with the day's inventory movements and the weighted-average COGS for each shipment. These are the integrations every vendor charges extra for. You write them once against your own code and you are done.

What is not included

StackAlchemist is not a full WMS. We do not include wave picking, slotting optimization, advanced shipping containers, or carrier rate-shopping out of the gate. We do not include EDI 850/856/810 trading-partner integration, because every distributor's EDI partners are different and the scaffolding is wasted tokens. We do not include a mobile-native scanner app — the scanning UI is browser-based and works fine on a handheld Android scanner with a browser, but if you want a native Zebra app, you build it on top.

Inventory accuracy is your responsibility. The generated system gives you cycle-count endpoints, adjustment workflows, and an audit trail on every movement. It does not magically make your warehouse correct. For 90% of distributors, manufacturers, and DTC brands, what you actually want is a system you own, with no per-seat tax and no vendor lock-in. For the 10% running automated AS/RS conveyors with deep WCS integration, buy Manhattan or Blue Yonder.
