The problem

Your tools don't talk to each other.

One app for recipes. Another for syncing stock. A spreadsheet holding it together. You're the one in the middle: manually checking, manually deciding, manually updating. Batchforja replaces all of it.

Stock Push

One stock level.
Everywhere you sell.

When your stock changes (from a production run, a sale, or a manual adjustment) Batchforja pushes the updated numbers to every channel automatically. No more overselling. No more manual updates.

  • One internal stock level drives all your listings

  • Production output immediately reflected everywhere

  • Native channel integrations in active development

Channel integrations are being built now. Early access members tell us which platforms to prioritise first. Etsy, Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, Faire, and more are all on the roadmap.

Materials

Never run out of
what matters most.

Every material has a reorder threshold. Batchforja watches your stock as production consumes it and flags what needs replenishing before you're blocked. Not after.

  • Automatic consumption tracking from every batch

  • Reorder thresholds with early warning alerts

  • Vendor tracking and full purchase history

How it works

From order to dispatch, in one system

Inventory management for handmade sellers has to account for something most stock tools ignore: the products you sell are products you make. When an order comes in from Etsy, Shopify, your own site, or a wholesale buyer, Batchforja adds it to a live queue and cross-references what you need to produce against what is already in stock and what raw materials you have on hand. If finished product is available, the order can ship immediately. If not, Batchforja identifies the production gap and suggests a batch size based on current open demand.

When you log a manufacture run, Batchforja automatically deducts the raw materials consumed, based on your saved recipes. Ingredient stock stays accurate without any manual entry. Materials approaching their reorder threshold are flagged before they become a production blocker.

Once a batch is complete and stock is recorded, the updated quantities push to every connected sales channel. Etsy listing stock adjusts. Shopify inventory updates. There is no manual sync step and no risk of overselling because one system owns the number across every platform.

The result is a complete picture of your business in one place: orders, production, materials, and sales channels all consistent and current, without spreadsheets, platform-switching, or numbers held in your head.

A better way

Beyond the spreadsheet stack

Most handmade sellers piece together their own inventory management from a stack of spreadsheets and single-purpose apps: a tab for materials, another for orders, maybe a shared Google Sheet for production. A separate app for Etsy syncing. Another tool for recipe management. It works until it does not.

The problem is not the spreadsheet itself. It is the gaps between tools. Every platform update requires a manual step. Every production run means editing multiple tabs. A busy week means things fall out of sync, and by the time you notice, you have either oversold a product or reordered stock you already had.

Batchforja is inventory management built specifically for Etsy sellers, Shopify makers, and anyone running a handmade product business. Recipes, material stock, orders, and channel listings live in one place and stay consistent automatically, so you spend less time maintaining data and more time making.

Founding members

Get in early.
Lock in forever.

I built Batchforja because I was running a small product business across four channels. One app for recipes, another for syncing stock, and paying $80+ a month for a solution that still required me to be the one manually checking everything. If that sounds familiar, this is for you.

The first 50 makers who join get full Studio access at $19/month, locked in permanently, as long as you stay subscribed. In return I'm asking for one thing: use it seriously and tell me honestly what's working and what isn't. Your feedback shapes what gets built next.

Once 50 spots are claimed this rate closes. That's not a marketing trick. It's a real limit on how many early users I can give proper attention to.
