Auto parts store software for the counter: count the shelf, set the reorder point, keep the record.

Auto parts inventory software for the person who owns the stock at a small independent operation and works the shelf by hand today: the count against what the system says and the accuracy it gives, the usage and the supplier's lead time that set the reorder point, the cost and the list price that leave the margin the counter is really holding, the cost of goods sold against the average inventory value that say how many times the stock turns, and the part numbers that have not sold in a year and the cash they are sitting on. Free, on the page, no account. Pro keeps every part, bin, count, reorder and supplier against the record. Nothing here is a catalog, a fitment lookup or advice.

Free for 14 days. No card needed.

Binstockly Pro is $49 per month for the whole counter, billed monthly.

One product, three jobs

Count the shelf. Price the line. Keep the record.

The shelf
What is really there, and what the gap is worth 300 part numbers counted with 261 matching the system is 87% inventory accuracy, and the 60 units the count could not find at an average cost of $38 are $2,280 off the shelf, worked on the page before the figure reaches the accounts.
The line
The margin the counter is really holding, after the discount A part that costs $42 and lists at $78 sells for $70.20 once the usual 10% comes off, which is $28.20 of gross profit, a 40% margin and a 67% markup. At 180 lines a week that is $5,076, and the sheet says what the same discount does to the year.
The record
Every part, bin, count and reorder filed where it belongs Parts with their bin, cost, list price and last sold date, counts with the variance they found, reorders against the supplier and lead time they assumed, and price changes with the margin they left, all filed against the store, so the accountant's question about the stock value has the sheet to hand. Everything exports.

Why not just buy a full jobber system?

Need a live parts catalog, interchange numbers, vehicle fitment data, electronic ordering into three distributors and a counter point of sale? Buy the jobber system, and budget for the data subscription that makes it work. Binstockly is the other case: the operation whose figures are worked on paper or in a spreadsheet today, where the count, the reorder point, the margin and the turns are the things that are wrong, not the catalog.

What it costs to start
Binstockly Free. The five sheets work on the page with no account and no card.
A full jobber systemA monthly platform fee plus a parts data subscription, usually quoted per counter seat.
The parts catalog and fitment
Binstockly None, on purpose. You bring your own part numbers.
A full jobber systemA licensed catalog with interchange and fitment, which is most of what you are paying for.
The arithmetic behind the shelf
Binstockly Five sheets that show the working: accuracy, reorder point, margin, turns, dead stock.
A full jobber systemReports that give the number, usually without the inputs that produced it.
Getting your figures back out
Binstockly Export every part, count, reorder and supplier at any time, and for 90 days after you cancel.
A full jobber systemVaries by vendor, and is worth asking about before you sign.

Both answers are legitimate and they are not the same purchase. If the catalog is the thing you need, this is not it, and we will say so if you ask.

The answer is yours. Keeping it is Binstockly Pro.

The sheets are free forever. Pro turns them into the record: every part with its bin, cost, list price and last sold date, every count with its variance against the shelf it came from, every reorder against the supplier and lead time it assumed, your store's name and logo on the printed sheets, no watermark, and an export when the accountant or the buyer asks.
