    Sample data

  • Record a batch and the products go onto your shelf while the materials come off.
  • See what's on the shelf and what all your stock is worth.
  • Fix a count when something breaks or you count again. Every change is kept with its reason.
  • Reorder before you run out. Puffin drafts the email to your supplier; you tap Send.

Fairs, shops and custom orders

Selling to a shop or taking a custom order? Send a quote they accept online, then an invoice they can pay by card.

Selling on Etsy?

We've asked Etsy for permission to connect shops. Until then you add products and batches yourself, in plain words.

Less admin, more making.
