invent.sale
an operating network for trade

From demand to cash — in one operating network

invent.sale connects customer demand, pricing, assortment, inventory, suppliers and working capital — turning an export from your accounting system into executed decisions.

One network. Different participants. One operation.

Each sees their own slice of the cycle and their own job — yet everyone works on the same order.

Keep availability without inflating stock or breaking payments.

From a customer signal to a repeat purchase

Ten steps that usually live in different systems and different heads. Here they are one chain, with a record at every step.

  1. 1DemandA customer takes an item off the shelf
  2. 2DemandPrice and assortment decide what they found at all
  3. 3SupplyDemand is recomputed from goods movement
  4. 4SupplyA location's need appears, in days of cover
  5. 5SupplyThe hub splits stock; the rest becomes an order
  6. 6NetworkThe order goes to the supplier on schedule
  7. 7NetworkThe supplier confirms or amends lines
  8. 8NetworkReceiving is recorded, discrepancies included
  9. 9CashThe obligation enters the payment calendar
  10. 10DemandThe item is back on the shelf — and the customer returns

Four layers. One trading cycle.

Layers switch on one at a time and share one core. Start with any of them; the rest need no migration.

interface

One interface to the whole ecosystem

Director is not a chatbot on top of a dashboard but one interface to every product. An answer always carries its data source, its period, and what happens if the action is confirmed.

Supply

What runs out in seven days?

34 items across four locations, 11 of them with no open order. Cover and stock are shown per line.

Network

Who has not confirmed an order?

Six suppliers this week. For two of them the channel does not deliver at all — that is a separate problem, not silence.

Cash

Why will there be a gap in two weeks?

Three approved orders share a payment date. Moving one of them closes the gap — the scenario is ready to confirm.

One data graph. One decision core.

That is why a decision made in analytics reaches the supplier without anyone re-keying data, and the supplier's answer lands back on the very product record where it started.

Why this is one system

Price drives demand. Demand drives stock. Stock creates an order. An order creates a payment obligation. On-shelf availability decides whether the customer returns. You can split that chain across separate systems — but then every link is optimised on its own, at the expense of the next one.

Runs on top of your existing infrastructure

We do not promise “any ERP in 15 minutes”. We start read-only, check data quality and choose a safe integration route. The timeline depends on your configuration and the readiness of the sources.

sources

1C (OData or file export), POS, warehouse systems, supplier price lists in XLSX, CSV exports, SQL and REST.

The file route matters as much as the direct one: in some networks 1C sits in a closed environment with no outside access.

Every company's data is isolated

The platform is meant to be neutral market infrastructure — and neutrality rests on how access is built, not on a promise.

  • Each network has its own tenant: database, keys and schedules. One client's request cannot technically reach another's data.
  • A connection starts read-only. Write-back is enabled by a separate client decision, not at deployment time.
  • A supplier sees the order addressed to them and nothing beyond it.
  • One network's data never reaches another — anonymised extracts included. We neither sell it nor use it for third-party market analytics.
  • We hold no ISO or SOC 2 certification and do not imply one with badges. If your policy requires it, say so in the first conversation.

Deployment without replacing your ERP

You can stop after any step and still keep the result. We do not quote “first results in 14 days”: it depends on what your export actually contains.

the usual objection

“You still need a person”

Yes. The system takes over recalculation, order assembly and distribution. What is left to a person is what they answer for with money: terms, exceptions, and the decision to send.

  • You can see where the number came from

    A recommendation shows demand, cover, stock on hand and the supplier's lot.

  • Any line can be edited

    The edit is stored with author and time — and later it is clear who was right.

  • Large orders need confirmation

    The threshold is set by the network owner. A big order never leaves silently.

  • The system's own failure is surfaced first

    An empty send, a dead channel, a failed export — these are incidents, not silence.

Show us one critical process. We will show how it runs here.

We look at your cycle: how an order is assembled today, who decides, where time leaks and what the system takes over.

Start with one critical process

Connect replenishment, supplier ordering or another first workflow, then expand across one platform.
