Message-based ERP·fint.biz

Business,
in conversation.

Your business already runs on conversations. Employees ask questions. Customers place requests. Vendors send updates. Warehouse teams move goods. Managers approve things.

Fint brings those conversations and business transactions together.

The core concept

One transaction.
Three views.

A MessageForm is a business form that opens directly from a message. The sender fills it out. The recipient adds their side. Fint records the transaction underneath — and the conversation stays attached to it.

The message is the doorway into the ERP. The conversation and the transaction stay connected — so later you're not just looking at a number, you can understand what happened.

What the recipient can do

They don't start over. Your information is already there.

The response goes back to the sender — and the underlying business activity is recorded in Fint.

How Fint works

It starts with a message.

People already communicate through messages. So why make them leave the conversation every time they need to do something? With Fint, they don't have to.

Not every message needs to become a form.

Most messages can stay exactly what they are. Fint doesn't turn every conversation into bureaucracy.

"Are you free at 3?""Customer called.""Truck is on the way.""Can you check this?""Here's the photograph."

Use a MessageForm when the work needs structure.

  1. 1

    Have a conversation

    Send a normal message: text, photo, file, or document. Talk to a colleague, customer, vendor, manager, or anyone else involved in the work.

  2. 2

    Turn the conversation into action

    When the conversation needs a structured business action, open a MessageForm from the textbox. Choose the form, fill it out, and send it.

  3. 3

    The recipient opens it

    They click the message. The MessageForm opens with the information the sender already provided. Nobody starts over.

  4. 4

    They add their side

    Confirm quantities, approve the request, add comments, attach photos or documents, report shortages, or explain an exception.

  5. 5

    The response comes back

    The sender sees the response in the conversation. Both sides have a clear record of what was sent and what happened afterward.

  6. 6

    Fint records the business activity

    The message provides the human context; the ERP provides the structured business record. They are not two separate systems.

A simple example

Dallas sends 25 cases to Austin. Here's the whole hand-off.

Stop asking, "Did you get it?" Fint makes the hand-off visible — sent, received, acknowledged, responded to, recorded.

Mon 12:04 · Dallas

25 cases leave Dallas

The warehouse employee opens a Transfer MessageForm, enters the items and quantities, and sends it to Austin. No separate email. No spreadsheet.

Features & business areas

One connected business.

Sales sees the customer. Purchasing sees the vendor. The warehouse sees the inventory. Operations sees the work. Management sees the business. That's the idea behind Fint.

Messaging + MessageForms

Talk to the people you work with — text, photographs, files, documents. Then turn any conversation into a business action without leaving it.

"We're short three cases."

Stock Request

The message is the doorway into the ERP.

Sales

Manage customers, sales orders, transactions, and the activity around them. Turn conversations into orders.

MessageForms & customization

Start with Fint.
Make it yours.

The core Fint message-based ERP is already built. You can use it as it is. It already connects people, conversations, transactions, inventory, purchasing, sales, and operations.

But every business has its own way of working. That's why Fint can be extended with additional MessageForms designed around your requirements.

Your custom workflow becomes part of the system

Not another application sitting beside it. Custom MessageForms use the same messaging framework, the same users and conversations, the same documents and photographs, the same acknowledgement mechanism, and the same business records.

You don't have to design your ERP before you can use it.

Standard where standard makes sense. Custom where your business is different.

The context matters

An ERP can tell you 23 cases arrived.
It rarely tells you why.

The recipient can add a comment, a photograph, a document, an explanation, a quantity, an approval, or any other relevant context — and that context stays connected to the transaction.

So later, you're not just looking at a number. You can understand what happened.

Built across industries

Run the business
behind the operation.

A business isn't just what customers see. Behind every location is a constant flow of purchasing, receiving, inventory, transfers, consumption, production, sales, vendors, employees, and decisions.

And much of that work happens through conversations.

"Are we getting the delivery today?"
"We're short three cases."
"Send another 10 units to Line 2."
"Can we approve this purchase?"
"These arrived damaged."
"The machine's down again."

Fint connects those conversations to the business transactions underneath them.

Receiving

Receive goods without losing the context

A delivery arrives. The receiving employee opens the delivery message and sees what was expected. They check the shipment and record what actually arrived — a photograph, damaged goods, shortages, comments — then acknowledge it. What actually arrived becomes part of the business record.

Transfers

Move inventory between locations

One location needs more. Another has extra. The transfer begins as a MessageForm. The receiving location sees exactly what was sent, then confirms what they actually received. The transfer isn't finished just because someone clicked “send.”

Your operation

You don't commission an ERP from scratch

The Fint message-based ERP is already built. Start with the existing system for sales, purchasing, inventory, operations, and messaging — then customize the parts that are unique to your business. Standard where standard makes sense.

Custom workflows

Build the workflows your business needs.

Every business has its own processes. These are examples — if your business has a process that matters, we can build a MessageForm around it.

Quality Inspection

Inspect incoming goods or finished product and record results.

Stock Request

A location requests inventory from the warehouse.

Delivery Exception

Missing, damaged, substituted, or rejected.

Maintenance Request

Report an equipment or machine problem.

Production Run

Track materials consumed and goods produced.

New Item / SKU

Route a new product or part through review and approval.

Vendor Issue

Document a supplier problem, conversation attached.

Cycle Count

Reconcile what's on the shelf against what's on the books.

Industries

Built for the operations behind the counter.

Each industry gets its own workflows, its own MessageForms, and its own page — open one to see how Fint fits that operation.

Customers & vendors

Your business doesn't stop at your employees.

Customers and vendors are part of your workflow: orders, requests, confirmations, deliveries, documents, questions, problems, and approvals. Fint brings those conversations into the same connected business process.

Customers can participate without learning your ERP

A customer doesn't need to understand your inventory system. They just need to respond to a message — provide information, confirm an order, send a photograph, add a comment, approve something, or acknowledge a delivery.

Customer

"Confirmed the order. Deliver to the back entrance after 2pm."

Keep vendor communication connected

Vendor conversations carry real business information: delivery confirmations, substitutions, shortages, pricing, documents, and questions. Fint keeps those interactions attached to the relevant purchasing and receiving activity.

Vendor

"Out of Roma — substituting vine-ripened at the same price. OK?"

Everyone sees their part of the transaction.

The customer sees what they need. The vendor sees what they need. Your employees see what they need. Your ERP retains the complete business record.

About Fint

We're building business software around the way people actually work.

The idea is simple: people shouldn't have to become experts in enterprise software just to do their jobs.

Most business software was designed around the database

Customers go here. Orders go there. Inventory lives somewhere else. Communication happens outside the system entirely. Fint starts from a different place.

People communicate, act, and hand work to other people

That is how businesses actually operate. So Fint is built around the movement of messages and actions between people — a message becomes a transaction, a transaction receives a response, a response adds context.

We're building Fint for the businesses in between

Businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected applications. Businesses that need more control but don't want software that takes over the business. Growing businesses that need their software to grow with them.

The software should handle the complexity

  • 01

    A warehouse employee shouldn't have to understand the accounting system to receive goods.

  • 02

    A salesperson shouldn't have to become an inventory expert to create a customer order.

  • 03

    A manager shouldn't have to search through email to approve something.

  • 04

    A vendor shouldn't need to understand your ERP to confirm a delivery.

People should be able to work naturally. The software should handle the rest.

A message can become a transaction. A transaction can receive a response. A response can add context. And all of it becomes part of the business record.

Business, in conversation.

Questions

Straight answers.

The short version: the ERP already exists, messaging is how people reach it, and customization is how you close the gap between the standard product and the way your business actually runs.

An ERP. Messaging is the interface, not the product. A normal conversation can stay a normal conversation — but when work needs structure, the message becomes a MessageForm and Fint records the business transaction underneath it.

No. The core Fint message-based ERP is already built. You can start with the standard functionality for sales, purchasing, inventory, operations, and messaging, see where it fits, and then identify the processes that are genuinely unique to your business.

A business form that opens directly from a message. The sender fills it out and sends it to whoever needs to act. The recipient opens it with the sender's information already there, adds quantities, approvals, comments, photographs, or exceptions, and sends it back. The response returns to the conversation and the activity is recorded in Fint.

We build additional MessageForms and workflows into Fint around your requirements. They use the same messaging framework, users, conversations, documents, acknowledgement mechanism, and business records — so your custom process becomes part of the system rather than another application beside it.

Yes. An outside participant doesn't need to understand your inventory system. They receive a message, respond to a form, confirm an order, attach a photo, or acknowledge a delivery. Fint handles the business structure behind that simple exchange.

Yes — multi-location work is a core part of the product. Goods move between branches, warehouses, and stores, and both sides of every transfer stay informed: what was sent, what was received, what was damaged, and who acknowledged it.

No, and it shouldn't. “Are you free at 3?” stays a message. Use a MessageForm when the work needs structure — a transfer, a receipt, an approval, an inspection, an exception.
