Inventory, memos, invoices and work orders. One system for the shop.

Carat tracks every stone and finished piece from intake to sale, runs your repairs and custom jobs, and pushes inventory to Shopify, so paperwork stops eating the day.

Everything you need to run the shop

Purpose-built for the way jewelry businesses actually work.

Inventory tracking

Track loose stones and finished goods with full lifecycle status: available, on memo, sold, or written off.

Memos & credit notes

Issue memos, convert them to invoices, and process credit notes that auto-apply against the source invoice.

Invoicing

Generate branded invoices, record payments, apply store credit, and watch A/R aging update in real time.

Work orders

Track every repair and custom job from intake to pickup. Assign jobs to your setters, CAD designers and polishers, who update status from a link with no login, and give customers a link to check on their order.

Shopify sync

Push inventory to your Shopify storefront, one way.

AI extraction

Pull diamond and certificate data straight from GIA reports and photos, with no manual data entry.

Reports

Inventory valuation, sales, and A/R aging reports, exportable to branded PDF in one click.

Questions

Short answers to what shops ask us first. Anything else, book a demo or email support@carat.software.

What does Carat cost?

Pricing is by quote. Pick the modules your shop uses, we'll show you Carat with your own work, and we'll quote a monthly plan. Moving your records in is quoted separately as a one-time setup.

Can I bring in my existing inventory and customers?

Yes. As part of setup we move your records over from your current system or spreadsheets and train your team. We do it for you; there is no upload button to fight with.

Does it connect to QuickBooks?

Carat sends customers, invoices, payments and credit notes to QuickBooks Online, one way, as you send them. It is built and in Intuit's approval process, so a live QuickBooks company can't connect until that completes. Ask us where it stands.

Does it connect to Shopify?

We can set up a one-way listing of your inventory to your Shopify store, and you choose which items to list. A sale on Shopify does not yet mark the item sold in Carat.

Which integrations are coming?

QuickBooks Online is built and in Intuit's approval process. GIA report lookup by report number is built and switches on for a shop once it connects its own GIA account, which GIA bills per lookup. Rapaport price-list pricing is waiting on licensing. We don't give dates.

Can my setters and outside jewelers use it without an account?

Yes. Each job you assign sends them a private link, and they accept it, decline it or mark it ready from their phone with no login. This is part of Work orders.

Can customers see their order status?

Yes, if you switch it on. Each repair or custom order can have a private status page that shows the stage it is at. Prices, vendors and your notes never appear on it.

Is my data separate from other shops, and can I take it with me?

Each shop's records are kept apart from every other shop's at the database level. You can ask for an export of your data at any time while your account is open, and for 30 days after it closes.

How many users can I have?

Plans are priced by seats, meaning the people who sign in. Each plan includes some, and you can add more.

Does it work on a phone or tablet?

Carat runs in the browser on desktop, tablet and phone; there is nothing to install. The pages your vendors and customers open are built for phones.

How do I cancel?

Contact support. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the period you have paid for.

Who do I talk to when something breaks?

Email support@carat.software, or use Help & support inside Carat.
