Build bills of materials for every product — adding raw materials, components, sub-assemblies, and labor rates. When you manufacture, Craftybase auto-calculates your cost per unit, deducts used materials, and records the batch. No spreadsheet formulas, no manual counting.

Every time you manufacture against a BoM, your raw material counts update automatically. Every time a Shopify order comes in, they update again. You always know exactly what you have on hand, what's running low, and what to reorder — without opening a spreadsheet.
Assign lot numbers to material batches and trace every finished product back to the exact raw materials used. If you ever need to identify which customers received products from a specific supplier batch — or handle a product recall — Craftybase has the complete record ready in seconds.
Your BoM isn't just for production — it's your pricing foundation. Craftybase calculates the real cost of each product across every batch: materials, labor, and overhead combined. See your margin per product, spot your most profitable lines, and price with confidence instead of guesswork.
Most Shopify makers start on the Indie plan at $99/month — full BoM support, unlimited materials and products, Shopify sync, and COGS reporting all included.
Import orders automatically and sync stock levels across all your channels — so you never oversell or run out of stock.

As your Shopify business scales, Craftybase grows with you.

Common questions
A bill of materials (BoM) is a recipe that defines what goes into each product you make: which raw materials, how much of each, and what labor is involved. If you manufacture what you sell on Shopify — candles, skincare, food products, jewelry, or anything handmade — BoM software lets you track true production costs and keep your material inventory accurate automatically, rather than doing it manually in spreadsheets.
You connect your Shopify store to Craftybase, then build a bill of materials for each product — listing the raw materials and quantities required. When you run a manufacturing batch, Craftybase auto-deducts used materials and calculates your cost per unit. When Shopify orders come in, inventory updates again. You can also enable stock sync to push accurate product quantities back to your Shopify listings automatically.
Yes. Craftybase supports multi-stage production including components and sub-assemblies. If you manufacture intermediate parts that go into finished products — for example, a base blend that goes into multiple formulations — you can model that in Craftybase and track costs and inventory at every level of the production chain.
Yes, with the optional Shopify Stock Sync & Push feature. After a manufacturing run adds new finished goods to your Craftybase inventory, those updated quantities can push back to your Shopify listings — either automatically or with manual approval. Your Shopify stock levels always reflect what you've actually made and have available to ship.
