Manufacturing inventory, backed by AI and IoT
AI for the work behind the stock balance
Ask your inventory agent for stock information or give a natural-language instruction to record received material. Optiwise connects the action to your operating records and role permissions, with multilingual access for the stores team.
Inventory connected to a live factory
Run stock, purchasing and production in the same platform as industrial IoT. Monitor machine runtime, downtime, OEE and energy alongside the workflows that consume material and produce finished goods. Move from a stock view to the manufacturing context behind it.
Controls that fit your materials
Configure item variants, multiple units of measure, batch rules and reorder levels. Add custom inspection forms, fields, linked modules and automated actions without code, instead of forcing every material and store into one generic process.

Why choose Optiwise for your factory
Plan purchases against the work you have promised
Set reorder levels for routine replenishment. For a production order, Smart Suggest considers the BOM, stock, existing production and pending purchases. Buyers receive the resulting indents instead of rebuilding the factory requirement from separate stock exports.
Keep inspection between receipt and availability
Receive material against the purchase order, send it through the configured item inspection and release accepted quantities into stock. Track rejected returns and remaining supplier quantities separately. Store teams can follow the receipt, quality decision and issue in one workflow.
Work with manufacturing item detail
Maintain variants, multiple units of measure, drawings, vendor terms and store-level thresholds in the item master. Use stock-aging and low-stock dashboards for review, and ask Rishabh, our inventory AI agent, about the underlying records.
