Craftybase handles your electronics inventory management (plus COGS, expenses, pricing and taxes) so you can spend more time making — and making money.
Loved by the world’s most successful makers, including…
Craftybase math-magically generates pricing suggestions for every product you make, using your exact cost of materials and labor. Now you can price your electronics products confidently (and avoid undercharging), track your profit margins, and know you’re making enough money to grow your business.
Craftybase helped us make sure we were accounting for everything in our prices, and helped us quickly test what would happen if we changed suppliers to upgrade some of our materials.
With Craftybase, every order is assigned a material usage cost that’s based on your complete inventory history. So instead of wrangling Excel spreadsheets and stressing over EOY counts, you'll build up your COGS tally during the year as you make and sell. Craftybase calculations are GAAP compliant and use IRS-approved methods, making our COGS tracking ideal for U.S.-based small manufacturers.
Having a business that manufactures products with countless raw materials, Craftybase keeps us organized and helps us have a clear picture of the health of our business.
There’s no need to manage your compliance requirements separately from your inventory — because Craftybase makes all your products and materials fully traceable.
All you need to do: Log material purchases with lot numbers, and associate those lot numbers with your manufacture records. Then, Craftybase creates a purchase-to-sale, GMP and CPSC traceability solution for your electronics making business.
Generate a full report in seconds that shows exactly which orders contain a particular lot or batch of material — so that even when you have to recall a product or replace a faulty material, you already know which orders were affected.
Whatever happens, Craftybase has you covered. Our powerful inventory adjustments capabilities can handle any stock change — including cancellations, damage, and stock loss.
Plus, automatically import your orders and products from sales channels, and see detailed profit breakdowns for orders (including material costs and expenses).
Craftybase has helped track my customer orders, how much they cost and how much they cost me to make them, keeping me on top of my orders which is so important to my little business.
Track both direct and indirect expenses in Craftybase, using as many custom categories as you like. Purchases are associated with your materials, so that your unit pricing and inventory asset value are automatically calculated based on landed actual costs.
You can also associate expenses with products or orders, allowing you to see your true, exact profit margins for everything you sell.
Being able to categorize expenses and see where each project is costing me has helped me to understand my business and pinpoint areas of high value or expense.
Meet the last inventory system you’ll ever need. Keep sortable, searchable lists of all your material inventory (with photos!) that are always available online, wherever you are.
Maintain full purchase histories without trying, and even have Craftybase auto-calculate your rolling average unit prices.
Plus, you can create recipes for commonly used combinations of materials, with recommended pricing and detailed profit margin calculations for each recipe. You can even track the hidden costs of making sub-assemblies using components.
Being able to easily add and subtract materials from my master inventory based on daily sales is invaluable in keeping organized & proactive. Managing inventory was a painful, manual, and inaccurate process before I discovered Craftybase.
Be your bookkeeper’s new favorite client — or just be a better bookkeeper for yourself. Craftybase generates traditional, bookkeeper-friendly reports that slice and dice your data into useful insights. Reports include Profit and Loss, Expenditure & Revenue, Inventory Valuation, and Schedule C (COGS).
Plus, our Popular Product and High Revenue Customer reports give you insight into where your time and focus will yield the best results. And with Instant Profitability Guidance, you can see a full profit breakdown of any of your products or orders.
Craftybase, overall, has helped me streamline my inventory expenses, keep consistent unit costs and allowed me to see through the Reports section, my business grow each year.

I'm impressed with the ability to track minute quantities of essential oils and other materials used in multiple products. I love the conversion from purchase to tracking units, and love the ability to make components and recipes.

We no longer have to wonder how much of something we have in stock. It's much easier for me to sell my product when I know how much is on the shelf!

I love that the app keeps track of how much material I have on hand and how much it costs me exactly… This allows me to really know how much my products cost me to make and how much I should charge.
