Why Spots exists

Generic platforms weren't built for your business.

Traditional e-commerce grids assume box stock. But you manage raw batch conversions, detailed wedding consultations, custom structural quoting, and delicate proximity-based delivery.

Base-Consumption Inventory

Track quantities by raw batches or flour weight pool, rather than imaginary pre-boxed units.

Bespoke Custom Orders

Accept customer reference images and requests directly, quote custom totals, and send invoice links without email loop chaos.

Distance-Based Delivery

Compute delivery surcharges using real Google Maps road distances, protecting your profit margin on far-off drop-offs.

Tailor-Made Themes

Display your brand beautifully with responsive layouts optimized for visual food craft presentation.

REAL-TIME BATCH METRICS
Flour stock levels 82%
Belgian Cocoa stock levels 38%
Fine Sugar levels 94%
Platform Capabilities

Everything your shop needs, nothing it doesn't.

Engineered specifically for artisan workflows, dropping general-purpose merchant bloat.

Custom Request & Quoting

Structured intake briefs let customers outline visual parameters, attach sketch images, negotiate with live chat, and pay via secure checkout invoices.

Consultation Bookings

Integrated scheduler slots allow tasting sessions and design consultations to be booked natively. Connects directly to google calendars with auto alerts.

Distance-Based Delivery

Avoid delivery underpricing. Spots computes distances along actual roads via Google Maps API, auto-generating precise, radius-based driver payouts.

Branded Notifications

Order alerts, booking updates, and dispatch notices sent directly using your custom logo color themes, via reliable SMS and email queues.

Early Partner Spotlight

Designed with real craft businesses in mind.

We are onboarding our founding beta cohort. Here is how local bakers and artisans plan to break free from workflow chaos using Spots.

"Managing custom tiered cake commissions across three separate WhatsApp chats and notepad calculations has been exhausting. Having client briefs, design specs, invoice billing, and shipping details consolidated in a single hub will save hours weekly."

Owner, The Velvet Crumb · Lagos
"Standard e-commerce engines expect static boxes of goods. When we make macarons, our stock is dictated by batch ingredients (egg white pools, sugars). Spots' recipe-based inventory engine matches our kitchen reality perfectly."

"Charging courier flat rates to remote areas led to frequent losses. Getting Google Maps road distance calculations directly embedded at storefront checkout will protect our profit margin on every far-off delivery address."
