Katana
Cloud inventory management software for product businesses
Katana is a cloud inventory platform for product businesses that brings stock, orders, purchasing, production, and warehouse operations into a single system. It replaces manual tracking in spreadsheets with real-time visibility across multiple sales channels and locations, covering everything from raw materials to finished goods.
Core modules include inventory management, order management, manufacturing with bills of materials and subassemblies, purchasing with reorder points, forecasting, and warehouse management with barcode-enabled pick, pack, and receiving workflows. Batch, lot, and serial number tracking support traceability. Katana connects to ecommerce, accounting, CRM, shipping, and 3PL/WMS tools through native integrations, partner apps, and an open API. Katana MCP lets AI chat assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT query account data and create or update records. Dedicated apps cover the shop floor and warehouse.
Katana is aimed at multi-channel brands, manufacturers, hybrid product businesses, and regulated product industries. Pricing is usage-based: a free plan with limited SKUs, locations, and a 15-day full-feature period with unlimited users and API access; a Core plan with unlimited SKUs, users, and integrations plus add-ons; and a custom Advantage edition with custom integrations, dashboards, automations, and dedicated support. Onboarding includes a dedicated onboarding manager for workflow configuration, data migration, and team training.
