Overview

LNOKS builds custom warehouse and inventory management systems for wholesale distributors managing thousands of SKUs across multiple locations. Scan-verified picking, packing, and shipping cuts picking errors by 60–80%, real-time inventory unifies every warehouse from day one, and automatic sync with QuickBooks, Exact, or an existing ERP removes double data entry. A typical build is a €40–70K one-time investment against €500K+ for SAP over five years, and the client owns the code with no annual licensing fees. Founded in 2022, LNOKS has shipped 40+ products with a 5.0 Clutch rating and 96% client re-engagement; distribution builds include Vernox, a multi-warehouse system with QR-scan dispatch saving its operator $10,000+ per year, and Qloota, delivered in 3 months.

Pain Points

Every distributor managing 1,000+ SKUs hits the same walls.

  1. 1

    Each warehouse has its own spreadsheet. HQ assembles a picture from phone calls and emailed reports that are already outdated by the time they arrive. Customers call asking about availability, and your answer is "let me check and get back to you."

  2. 2

    Wrong items shipped. Orders missing line items. Returns, credits, and customer complaints increasing. The root cause is not your team - it is the lack of scan-verified accuracy at every step from pick to pack to ship.

  3. 3

    You looked at SAP, NetSuite, maybe Fishbowl. The licensing, implementation, and customization costs are built for companies doing €100M+. You need a system that fits your 3-warehouse, 3,000-SKU reality - not a Fortune 500 solution.

Our Process

From warehouse visit to go-live - no mystery.

  1. 1

    We map the complete flow from receiving dock to customer delivery across all your locations. We document processes, identify where visibility breaks down, trace how stock moves between warehouses, and assess your accounting platform for integration.

  2. 2

    We design the unified inventory dashboard, pick-pack-ship interfaces, and transfer management screens. Clickable prototypes are tested with your warehouse team in their actual working environment - on the dock, at the packing station, in the office.

  3. 3

    We develop the multi-warehouse system, build barcode scanning flows, connect accounting APIs, and stress-test with your real data volumes under peak-season load. Progress demos every two weeks.

  4. 4

    We launch in your busiest warehouse first - proving the system where it matters most. Train every role from receiving clerks to executives. Then roll out to remaining locations with ongoing monitoring and support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions distributors always ask.

Yes. Each warehouse can have its own layout, picking rules, and operational procedures while feeding into a single unified inventory view. Your HQ sees everything in real time without forcing every location to work identically.

Off-the-shelf systems force you to adapt your operations to their workflows. A custom system is built around how your specific warehouses operate - your dock layout, your picking process, your receiving procedures. Adoption is higher because the tool fits the work, not the other way around.

Most custom inventory systems for distributors take 4-6 months from discovery to production go-live. We typically pilot in your busiest warehouse first, then roll out to additional locations in phased deployments.
