LineNow does not try to become your POS, inbox, ERP, or accounting file. It turns those records into supplier work, then sends clean updates back.

The part your systems do not own

One order record carries the decision, supplier conversation, receiving variance, and downstream handoff.

  1. 01Turn signals into a buy listLineNow reads usage, stock, supplier rules, pack sizes, and open orders before recommending what to buy.
  2. 02Create supplier-ready POsThe buyer reviews one working order, then sends supplier-specific purchase orders without rebuilding them elsewhere.
  3. 03Attach every supplier replyConfirmations, shortages, substitutions, price changes, and ETAs update the order instead of sitting in an inbox.
  4. 04Push clean records backReceiving, final costs, invoice context, and fulfillment state are handed downstream after the order has changed.

Common questions

Everything you need to know about transforming your purchasing workflow
LineNow pre-fills supplier details and formats the PO for that supplier. It suggests quantities from live sales data and inventory levels. You review, adjust if needed, and send. No hunting through emails for supplier info. No guessing on minimum orders.
LineNow connects with Square, Shopify, Toast, Clover, Lightspeed, Amazon, and Faire. For Toast Food Service locations, the read-only Standard API connection reads published menus and closed orders, then uses signed menu and order webhooks to keep sales signals current. These signals let you compare what you sell against what you order, reducing the guesswork behind overstocking and stockouts.
Our AI reads supplier emails and extracts orders, pricing updates, availability changes, and shipping confirmations into one organized dashboard. No more digging through hundreds of emails or missing critical updates. Relevant supplier updates are grouped so you can see at a glance what needs your attention.
LineNow tracks the supplier side of the PO workflow: confirmations, delays, ETA changes, substitutions, price changes, and shipping updates. Supplier replies can create reviewable order-record updates, so your team is not relying on a buyer to retype every email into the purchasing system.
No. A template helps you format a PO. LineNow helps you decide what to order, create the PO from inventory data, send it to the supplier, track the supplier reply, receive the goods, and keep inventory and accounting aligned.
Yes - LineNow is designed for suppliers who stay in their existing workflow. Email and connected messaging channels can be captured, and phone or portal orders can be logged against the same supplier record. Some channel-specific automation depends on setup and integration access.
LineNow connects POS sales data with purchase orders to show what's moving and what isn't. You'll see which items are selling fast and need reordering. You also get suggestions for order quantities, which cuts the guesswork behind waste and stockouts.
Each active business unit is $100/month. Optional add-ons are billed separately. You manage inventory, suppliers, and orders across all of them from one dashboard, create location-specific purchase orders, and keep supplier relationships centralized.
LineNow tracks the order from PO creation through supplier confirmation, delivery updates, receiving, and inventory changes. When supplier replies contain delays or changes, the order record can surface those updates before the team discovers the issue during a stockout or invoice mismatch.
The public pricing page describes a 90-day free trial with access to the core workflow: suppliers, ordering, inventory tracking, POS sync, reporting tools, multi-location support, and staff accounts. No credit card is required to start. After 90 days, the core plan is listed at $100/month per business unit.
LineNow tracks pricing history, order volume, and supplier performance automatically. When it's time to negotiate, you have concrete spend and price-change data. You can also see which suppliers deliver on time. That gives you leverage instead of guesswork.
Most buyers can get started quickly by connecting a POS, adding suppliers, and importing or syncing item data. Setup time depends on catalog quality, supplier count, and whether you are migrating from spreadsheets, POS inventory, or another purchasing tool.
For restaurants, LineNow tracks ingredient costs and calculates recipe costs when integrated with your POS. You'll see which menu items are most profitable. You can also see how supplier price changes affect margins, pricing, and portion decisions.
Absolutely. LineNow handles the administrative side, but your supplier relationships stay yours. You still communicate directly. LineNow organizes those conversations and speeds up ordering, so buyers stop missing updates or calling for status checks.
