Krafte

Hi Product Hunt! I’m the founder of Krafte, and I’m building this while running my own manufacturing business. Like many of you, we were stuck in spreadsheets for years. They work fine at first, but eventually, calculating real-time margins and managing procurement becomes a headache. When we looked for a better solution, we found that most tools are either too expensive for a small team (costing thousands of dollars in setup and monthly fees) or just too bloated with features we’d never actually use. We built Krafte to be the "middle ground." It’s a lean tool designed specifically for the shop floor. What we focused on: Reducing friction: We made data entry as fast as possible so the team actually uses it. If it’s too complex, people just go back to paper. Accuracy where it matters: Real-time COGS tracking and procurement planning based on actual stock, not gut feeling. Simplicity over bloat: We stripped away the corporate modules to keep the interface clean and the price accessible. We’ve been using it internally for a year, and it’s finally at a stage where we feel it can help other makers and small production teams. We even localized it into 13 languages to make it easier for international teams to get started. I’d love to hear your thoughts, especially if you’ve ever struggled with moving a "real world" business away from Excel!
