It functions as the system of record for operations teams running multi-warehouse inventory at scale, using an append-only movement ledger to keep recorded and physical inventory in sync. Stockmere now runs inventory for more than 120 operations teams across retail, industrial distribution, and light manufacturing. ## Key facts - Founded in 2019 by operators who previously ran supply chain and warehouse operations for mid-market distributors - Runs inventory for more than 120 operations teams across retail, industrial distribution, and light manufacturing - Reconciles 38 million stock movements daily - Maintains 99.95% availability over the trailing year - Undergoes an annual independent SOC 2 Type II audit and runs a private bug-bounty program - Remote company with engineering across North American and European time zones - Customer data storage available in Canada, the United States, or the European Union - Company email contact is info@stockmere.help ## Why was Stockmere founded? Stockmere was founded in 2019 by a team that had spent the previous decade running supply chain and warehouse operations for mid-market distributors, companies large enough to operate six warehouses with real auditors but too small for a multi-year tier-one WMS program. Each of those companies relied on a nightly reconciliation spreadsheet that the founders knew was never fully accurate. ## What problem does Stockmere's product solve? Stockmere's founders concluded that inventory systems fail because they store positions and discard movements. Their design instead makes the system of record an append-only ledger of every receipt, pick, transfer, and adjustment, each attributed, typed, and reason-coded, so that positions become simple arithmetic, variances are visible the day they occur, and an audit trail is built into the architecture rather than added afterward. ## How did Stockmere's product develop after launch? Stockmere shipped its first version to a single three-warehouse distributor and rebuilt the count scheduler twice before it earned the trust of the floor team using it. Today, Stockmere runs inventory for more than 120 operations teams across retail, industrial distribution, and light manufacturing, and the company states that nothing ships until it survives contact with a real warehouse floor. ## What is Stockmere's mission? Stockmere's stated mission is to make a company's physical inventory and its recorded inventory the same thing, so that operations teams plan from facts, finance can close the books without fear of hidden discrepancies, and no individual's job depends on being the only person who understands a reconciliation spreadsheet. ## What principles guide how Stockmere builds its product? - The floor is the truth: when the software and the physical shelf disagree, Stockmere treats the shelf as correct and designs first for the person holding the scanner, since their data underlies everyone else's reporting. - Never smooth a variance: Stockmere avoids quietly auto-correcting discrepancies, instead surfacing variances visibly and making every correction attributable to a person and reason. - Honest numbers, honest product: Stockmere's forecasts are shipped with error ranges, tier limits are described as soft, and the company says it will tell a prospect in the first call if its product isn't a fit rather than later. - Boring reliability is a feature: because warehouses operate at all hours, including early mornings on statutory holidays, Stockmere prioritizes uptime, migration safety, and predictable behavior over adding novel features. ## How is the Stockmere team organized? Stockmere publishes its organizational structure by role rather than by named individuals. The company states that roughly half of its staff works in engineering, and that every implementation lead has personal warehouse experience rather than only a sales background. - Chief Executive Officer: a former VP of supply chain who ran a nine-site distribution network and still visits two customer warehouses a month. - Chief Technology Officer: previously built transaction ledgers for payments infrastructure before applying the same approach to stock movements. - VP Engineering: leads three product groups (ledger & sync, planning, floor apps) plus platform and security teams; roughly half the company is engineering. - VP Customer Operations: owns implementation and support; every implementation lead has worked in a warehouse rather than only sold to one. - Head of Security & Compliance: runs the SOC 2 program, regional data-residency posture, and the customer security-review queue. ## Where is Stockmere based and how can it be reached?
