A new breed of operating system built for commerce brands.
Your inventory, suppliers, purchasing, sales, plans, and people already affect one another. Tideswell is the system that finally understands how.
Plan purchasing. Track supply. Receive inventory. Coordinate launches. Automate the work in between.
Stop running the business from five different places.
A reorder decision shouldn't require a Shopify report, supplier spreadsheet, open PO list, marketing calendar, and somebody's memory.
And the conversation about all of it happens somewhere else again — in a chat tool that has never heard of the order you're arguing about.
Tideswell connects the operational data behind every decision so your team can work from one shared understanding of the business.
See on-hand, incoming, committed, and projected inventory together at the SKU level.
Keep lead times, costs, product relationships, terms, contacts, and supplier history attached to the supplier where they belong.
Create, approve, track, revise, and receive purchase orders without losing the context around why they exist.
Connect promotions, launches, campaigns, and future demand directly to the inventory required to support them.
Talk about the work beside the record it concerns — the order, the shipment, the product — instead of in a thread that has never heard of it.
Turn what was decided into work with an owner, attached to whatever caused it.
Know what to order before it becomes urgent.
Reordering isn't just a stock-level calculation.
Tideswell brings together sales velocity, supplier lead time, open purchase orders, planned demand, and reorder strategy to show what needs attention before a stockout becomes an emergency.
Turn live inventory and sales behaviour into recommended reorder timing and quantities.
Understand whether inventory will last long enough for the next shipment to actually arrive.
Factor inventory already on the way into purchasing decisions instead of treating every SKU in isolation.
Account for launches, promotions, seasonality, and upcoming campaigns before deciding how much inventory is really enough.
Purchasing shouldn't get harder as your catalog grows.
Hundreds of variants shouldn't mean hundreds of repetitive steps.
Tideswell gives buyers and receiving teams the information they need directly in the workflow, so they can move quickly without opening five different screens.
Receive directly from PO lines with quantities, current stock, incoming inventory, cost, retail price, margin, and destination available at a glance.
Receive full orders, process exceptions, revise quantities, and move through large purchase orders quickly.
Require sign-off before purchase orders are sent while keeping real-world receiving flexible when goods actually arrive.
Define exactly where incoming inventory should land instead of relying on ambiguous location defaults.

Your supplier shouldn't be a name in a dropdown.
Lead times, costs, products, shipments, purchase history, reliability, and risk all originate with the supplier.
Tideswell turns supplier records into living operational profiles that become more valuable with every order.
Centralize contacts, terms, lead times, currencies, minimums, notes, documents, and operational details.
Know exactly which products and variants each supplier is responsible for.
See current and historical purchase orders in the context of the supplier relationship.
Build toward measurable lead-time accuracy, cost variance, fulfillment reliability, defects, and purchasing performance.
Know what inventory actually costs you.
The price on the supplier invoice is only part of the story.
Tideswell connects purchasing costs with freight, duties, handling, selling price, and inventory performance so your team can make decisions against real economics instead of incomplete margins.
Allocate freight, duties, tariffs, brokerage, handling, and other costs across the inventory they belong to.
Compare supplier cost, landed cost, retail price, and margin without rebuilding the calculation in a spreadsheet.
Understand how much capital is committed to every order and what that inventory needs to produce.
Track how inventory performs after it arrives and build a historical record of better and worse purchasing decisions.
Inventory doesn't stop mattering when it reaches the warehouse.
An inbound shipment can affect a launch. A stockout can affect a campaign. A purchasing decision can affect margin months later.
Tideswell connects supply to the commercial plans depending on it.
See whether upcoming promotions have enough inventory behind them before they launch.
Connect products, inbound shipments, inventory availability, tasks, and launch dates.
Understand how inventory commitments across DTC, wholesale, retail, and other channels affect what is truly available.
When something changes, understand which products, plans, teams, and commitments are affected.
Air 200 units to make the Labour Day drop; the remaining 280 sail. Adds $1,840 in freight.
Stop chasing the business. Let the business tell you what changed.
Operations teams shouldn't spend their week checking shipment statuses, reconciling counts, updating spreadsheets, and telling everyone else what happened.
Tideswell watches the operation and turns meaningful changes into action.
Trigger workflows when inventory changes, shipments slip, tasks become blocked, approvals are needed, or business conditions are met.
Create accountable work attached directly to the PO, supplier, shipment, product, campaign, or decision that caused it.
Put real controls around purchasing and other high-impact decisions without disconnecting them from execution.
Surface what actually needs attention instead of filling the screen with routine activity.
Every task across the workspace — drag between columns, add to any department.

Automations that do the work, not just tell you about it.
Most automation tools move information between systems. You still get the message; you still do the job.
Tideswell's workflows run inside the system that holds the record — so a step doesn't send a summary of what changed, it opens the task, writes the decision onto the order, and tells the person who has to act.
One change can start several lines of work at once, each with its own conditions and its own outcome.
Create a task, write a decision, notify a person, update a field, create a record of any type your workspace defines.
The available triggers and conditions come from your workspace's records — including the object types you added yourself.
A workflow is validated before it can go live, and every run is recorded with what it did.

Your suppliers affect inventory.
Inventory affects campaigns.
Campaigns affect demand.
Demand affects purchasing.
And every change creates work somewhere else.
