The problem

Spreadsheets do not hold under pressure.

When an auditor, customer, or recall event asks for proof, disconnected systems force teams to reconstruct custody by memory.

Broken custody

Supplier documents, production usage, and outbound shipments live in separate places.

Controlled record

Slow recall scope

Manual lookups widen the blast radius and delay customer decisions.

Bidirectional trace

ERP drag

Heavy systems add consultants before operators get a useful trace view.

Lean deployment

What you can prove

What you can prove when an auditor is in the room.

Each surface is built around defensible records, not decorative dashboards.

Trace

Complete traceability

Forward and backward trace across suppliers, lots, batches, and shipments from one source of truth.

Recall

Recall management

Impact analysis identifies affected lots, customers, and shipments without widening the scope.

Audit

Compliance ready

Exportable reports, retained documents, and operator actions ready for inspection.

QA

Quality control

Approval workflows keep unverified batches from moving through the operation.

Public

Public trace

QR-powered product proof gives buyers a clean view of origin and custody.

Local

Self-hosted

SQLite, a single Docker container, and no required external services keep your evidence under your control.

How it works

Receiving to delivery without losing custody.

Operators get a clear station sequence; leaders get a defensible trace map.

1

Receive

DOCK

Record incoming materials with supplier lot numbers, documents, and photos.

2

Transform

LINE

Create lots or batches linking inputs to outputs with quantity tracking.

3

Label

TAG

Package and label items for internal movement or customer delivery.

4

Ship

GATE

Record sales, transfers, and shipments with order context.

5

Trace

TRACE

Query any lot for complete chain-of-custody history.

Where it fits

Built between inventory tools and ERP gravity.

The goal is operational evidence without months of implementation drag.

Common questions

Answers before the audit starts.

What is lot traceability? +
Lot traceability is the ability to track items, materials, or components through every stage of your operation, linking inputs to outputs and showing where each lot went. It provides a provable chain of custody for audits, quality events, and recalls.
Who is Inventeta for? +
Inventeta is built for for-profit teams where traceability matters: manufacturers, distributors, logistics operators, and brands that manage regulated or high-risk products.
How does Inventeta help with audits and recalls? +
Inventeta keeps immutable audit logs, forward and backward traceability, and exportable reports so you can scope issues quickly and show evidence to auditors.
How long does it take to implement Inventeta? +
Inventeta can be deployed in hours using a single Docker container. Unlike enterprise ERP systems that require months of implementation and ongoing consultants, Inventeta is designed for rapid deployment with minimal configuration. Import your existing supplier and product data, and you're ready to start tracking.
Can I host Inventeta on my own infrastructure? +
Yes. Inventeta is fully self-hosted and runs as a single Docker container with an embedded SQLite database. Your traceability data never leaves your infrastructure, ensuring complete data sovereignty and eliminating vendor lock-in concerns.
Does Inventeta integrate with existing systems? +
Yes. Inventeta includes built-in webhook integrations for WooCommerce and Shopify, plus custom webhooks for other platforms. It also supports multiple label printer brands for streamlined labeling workflows.
