Company Overview
About Cin7
Cin7 is a connected inventory management platform designed for product-based small and medium-sized businesses, providing a central system that manages inventory across warehouses, retail locations, 3PL partners, and B2B ordering portals. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand with major US operations in Denver, Colorado, Cin7 has raised more than $50 million and grown to serve thousands of SMB and mid-market businesses globally. The platform's breadth of integrations and inventory management depth have made it a popular choice for product companies that sell through multiple channels and need a system that tracks inventory from purchase order through sale and return.
Business Model & Competitive Advantage
Cin7's platform covers purchase order management with supplier communication, inventory receiving and tracking across locations, point-of-sale for retail, B2B ordering portal for wholesale customers, 3PL integrations for outsourced warehousing, and connections to major e-commerce platforms. The inventory management engine handles product variants, batch and serial number tracking, landed cost calculation, and reorder point management, providing the operational depth that simple e-commerce-native inventory tools lack. Financial reporting and integration with accounting systems like Xero and QuickBooks close the loop from purchasing through financial reporting.
Competitive Landscape 2025–2026
Cin7 competes with Unleashed Software, DEAR Inventory (now Cin7 Core), inFlow Inventory, and Brightpearl in the SMB inventory management market. The company has consolidated its position through the acquisition of DEAR Inventory, giving it two complementary product tiers under the Cin7 brand. This positions Cin7 to serve a broader range of product business sizes and complexity levels.
