I almost lost my mind managing my buddy’s inventory. So I built an AI to do my job instead.
Hey guys. If you’ve seen my previous rants, you know I’ve been on a crusade against the absolute nightmare of manual inventory math. I spent months helping a friend with his store, and let me tell you: staring at spreadsheets until your eyes bleed while trying to guess 'reorder points' is a cry for help.
We were either overstocking stuff or running out of best-sellers right when ads were peaking. I’m a dev, so I finally had a screw it moment and decided to build my own engine to automate my chores.
The result? I built a custom interface powered by an AI model. Instead of me doing math and crying, the AI constantly monitors the store's 'burn rate' and alerts us BEFORE a stockout happens. It completely killed our spreadsheet trauma.
I just finished polishing it and I'm not here for your money; I'm here for your brutal honesty. I want to see if this AI logic holds up for other setups, so I'm opening it up for free. If you are trapped in Excel Hell and want to see if this cures the headache, let's talk in the comments!
