Features in Action
Warehouse Price Comparison
Tired of manually checking market prices for every inventory item? The warehouse helper adds a "market price" button directly on your inventory page. Click any button to instantly see the market price compared to your sourcing cost. Products with higher quality get smarter price matching—the extension finds exact quality matches first, then falls back to the closest available quality if needed. All calculations use your weighted average quality across units, ensuring accurate comparisons for mixed-quality inventory.
Smart Retail Analysis
Maximize your retail profits with instant Profit Per Minute (PPM) calculations for each item. The extension analyzes your selling price against market costs, accounting for transport expenses automatically. Color-coded indicators show at a glance which products are most profitable (green = great margins, red = consider adjusting prices). No more guesswork— just pure profit analysis built right into your retail dashboard.
Production Optimization
Maximize manufacturing profitability with instant cost analysis. The extension calculates total production costs by analyzing ingredient prices, production modifiers, and labor efficiency. See detailed breakdowns per unit and batch quantities to make informed production decisions. Compare costs across different scenarios and optimize your production chain for maximum profit margins.
Contract Assistant
Evaluate contract opportunities with confidence. When sending custom contracts, the assistant calculates profit margins instantly and compares against market sale profitability. Set your desired discount percentage and automatically populate competitive pricing. Never send an unprofitable contract again—every deal is backed by numbers.
Cashflow Dashboard
Know exactly where your money is going. The cashflow insights page breaks down your daily income and expenses by category—see how much you're spending on each operation type and where your revenue comes from. Compare today against yesterday to track trends and spot opportunities. Understanding your financial rhythm is key to strategic planning.
Executive Skill Breakdown
Get detailed insights into executive candidate capabilities. The extension analyzes each candidate's skills with comprehensive breakdown showing organic skill levels versus training potential. Understand which competencies are naturally high and which can be developed through training to make informed recruitment decisions.
Hiring and HR Feedback
Match HR feedback against expert profiles to understand true growth potential. The tool compares candidate assessments and performance indicators against industry benchmarks, helping you identify high-potential hires and predict long-term value. Make strategic recruitment decisions backed by data-driven insights about each candidate's trajectory.
Quick Chat Search
Finding the right trade partner in chat shouldn't be like finding a needle in a haystack. Filter the sales chat for specific products to quickly identify who's buying or selling what you need. Perfect for negotiating bulk deals or finding niche buyers for your premium products.
