Where Makeships is going next.

What just shipped, what we're building now, and what comes after, led by a retail model that runs in your own cloud. Everything past "Just shipped" is a plan, not a promise, so there are no dates. Tell us what you need and it moves up the list.

Just shipped

Live in the apps today

  • CommerceInventory

    Stock leaves when the order ships

    Checkout holds stock, the hold is kept until the order ships, and shipping takes it off the shelf.

  • Inventory

    To pick & ship list

    Orders waiting to ship, oldest first, with pick totals per item.

  • Commerce AI

    Courier returns and COD

    Undelivered parcels come back into stock; COD orders are paid on delivery and courier payouts are matched.

  • InventoryCommerce AI

    Slow stock to clearance

    Idle stock gets a markdown proposal that never goes below cost, and ends on its own.

  • Procurement AI

    Supplier quality

    Returns to vendor for damaged goods, and scorecards with on-time delivery against the promised date.

  • All apps

    Open source

    All three apps are on GitHub under the GNU AGPL v3.

Makeships Retail LLM

General-purpose models are good at everything and tuned for nothing in particular. We're building a small model trained for the work an online seller actually does, in any country: products, tax, stock, suppliers and customers. It runs on your own machine, so your catalogue, costs and customer messages never leave it.

The apps can already run their assistant and agents on a model you host, through Ollama, LM Studio or vLLM. The Retail LLM will plug into that same setting: choose it in Integrations → AI models, and every agent uses it.

  • Runs in your cloud

    Served by Ollama or vLLM on your own GPU or CPU, through the same model setting the apps already have.

  • No per-token bill

    You pay for the machine, not for every product description.

  • Your data stays put

    Nothing is sent to a model provider, and your data is never used to train it unless you choose to share it.

  • Same guardrails

    It works through the same agent policies, approvals and undo as any other model.

  • Open weights

    Published with its evaluation results, so you can check what it's good at before you rely on it.

What it's for

  • Catalogue

    Product titles, attributes, size charts and descriptions from a photo or a supplier's sheet, in your style.

  • Tax and customs

    Suggests the HS or HSN code and the VAT, GST or sales-tax treatment for a new product, with its reasoning, for you to confirm.

  • Buying

    Explains reorder suggestions, drafts purchase requests and supplier emails, and reads supplier invoices into lines.

  • Customers

    Answers "where's my order", return and delivery questions in your customers' languages.

Help shape it

We're looking for a few stores to test early versions on their own catalogue and compare it with the model they use today. You keep your data; we share the results.
