Pricing
Four tiers. All of them free right now.
The tiers carry list prices of ₹99 to ₹999 a month, and every one of them is currently set to ₹0 for the launch period — including MAX, which includes the Nova AI assistant. No card, no trial clock, no feature that stops working on day fifteen.

What every tier includes
The limits differ. The product does not — core stock control is not held back to sell you an upgrade.
All 43 features
Stock movements, purchase and sales orders, returns, billing, batch tracking, stock takes, warehouse zones, reports and the audit log — on every tier, subject only to the AI assistant note below.
Web, Android and iOS
The same workspace on every platform, against one live database. Nothing is desktop-only.
Roles and permissions
Invite staff and control exactly which screens they open and which actions they can take, on every tier.
Excel import and export
Bulk import, bulk update matched on SKU or barcode, and export whenever you want your data back. Never gated.
Every report
Profit and loss, ABC analysis, valuation, ageing, stock ledger, price history and the full transaction record.
Nova AI assistant
Included on Pro and MAX. Starter and Growth do not include it — and since every tier is currently ₹0, that is a tier choice rather than a payment.

Pricing questions
Is SmartShelfKart really free?
Yes, on every tier, right now. The four tiers carry list prices of ₹99 to ₹999 a month, and all four are currently set to ₹0 for the launch period. No card is required to create a workspace.
What happens when the launch period ends?
The list prices shown here — Starter at ₹99/mo, Growth at ₹299/mo, Pro at ₹599/mo, MAX at ₹999/mo — are what the tiers are designed to cost. We will give existing workspaces notice before anything changes, and your data is exportable to Excel at any time regardless.
What counts against the product limit?
Distinct products in your catalogue. Variants you have created as separate products each count as one. Archived products do not count toward the active limit.
Which tiers include the AI assistant?
Nova is included on Pro and MAX. Starter and Growth do not include it. Because every tier is currently free, those tiers are reachable today.
Can I change tier later?
Yes. Changing tier does not migrate or delete data — it changes the limits and which features are unlocked.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Create a workspace with an email address and start using it.
Can I export my data if I leave?
Yes. Export to Excel covers your catalogue and report data. We think software that traps your data is software you will come to resent, so this is not gated behind a tier.
Create a workspace
An email address is all it takes. Nothing to install, no card, and every tier is free during launch.
