Your veteran order desk feels at home on day one. Your new hires never see a green screen.

Pricing

One flat price for the company. Not per seat. A one-time perpetual license.

Per-seat cloud systems charge per user, per month, so adding the person who covers the counter on Saturdays costs you every year, forever. SOS doesn't count your people.

Help, from people who built it

You call. A person answers.

Getting started

Onboarding with your data

Setup happens around your converted data, not a blank system. We map, you verify, your team clicks through real orders before day one.

Training

Your crew, up to speed fast

Because SOS follows the workflow your office already knows, training is measured in hours. We work with your people directly.

Ongoing

Direct line to the builders

No tiered ticket queue. Questions go to the people who wrote the software and who converted your data.

Frequently asked questions

It comes with you. We convert your customers, part numbers, open orders, and order history from your current system into SOS, and you review it in a working sandbox before go-live.

Weeks, not months. The first conversion pass usually takes days once we have a data extract; then you click through your own data, we tune the mapping, and you pick a go-live date.

AI writes it, and people verify it — twice. The conversion programs are written with AI against your system’s actual table layouts, a person checks the code and its output field by field, and then you verify the converted data in a working sandbox against your own reports before go-live. That’s what makes conversion code tailored to your exact system practical instead of a consulting project.

No. SOS runs in a browser. There is no server to buy, no database to administer, and nothing to install on each PC. If your office can use a website, it can run SOS.

Shop Office Software runs your shop floor and the shared inventory, customers, and vendors. Add the Distribution Mgr module for the wholesale order desk. Each side has its own order entry, built for its work, and both share one database: the same inventory, the same customers, and the same A/R.

One flat, one-time price per company for the system you run — a perpetual license, not a per-user subscription. Add the Distribution Mgr module when you need the order desk. Head to the pricing page to compare it against what per-seat systems would cost at your headcount.

Yes — the SOS + Dist Mgr Assistant, built on Claude AI. Ask about your own business in plain English and it answers from your live data and the built-in help. It is strictly read-only, so it can never change your data, and it runs on your own Anthropic key with a monthly budget cap you set inside the app.

Yes, that is the standard path. Send a data extract, and your demo happens inside a sandbox loaded with your actual customers, parts, and history.

Bring your data. Keep your workflow. Move forward.
