The category problem

Most enterprise WMS sells you the platform. Then they sell you the team to run it. Then the change orders. Then the upgrades.

What's in the subscription

One bill. Everything included.

Subscription pricing covers the platform, the managed service, the concierge team, the per-customer AI, configuration changes, retailer onboarding, integrations, and continuous platform updates.

Most enterprise WMS contracts split these into separate line items: license, professional services, managed services tier, support tier, integration projects, change orders, upgrade projects. Each line is its own negotiation; each negotiation is its own surprise.

Invenits gives you a subscription. Monthly. Scaled to your operational footprint. The team comes with the platform. So does the AI. So does retailer onboarding. So does change-order configuration. So do continuous platform updates. There's nothing else to buy.

The five-year cost comparison

What enterprise WMS costs over five years. What Invenits costs over five years.

Most enterprise WMS contracts hide the team-to-run-it cost in line items the buyer doesn't see during evaluation. The five-year total is roughly 2.5–3x the headline license price. Invenits is built differently.

Enterprise WMS — typical

  • Year 1: License + implementation. $1.2M–$2.5M one-time
  • Year 1–5: Internal team. $300K–$800K/year (3–6 engineers, analysts, admins)
  • Year 1–5: Change orders. $150K–$400K/year (retailer onboarding, integrations, business rules)
  • Year 3 & 5: Upgrade projects. $200K–$500K each (services, regression testing, training)
  • 5-year TCO. $4.5M–$9M+ for mid-market scale (per Gartner-class advisory data, redacted)

Invenits — included

  • Year 1: Subscription. Monthly fee, scaled to your operation — with integrated lifecycles (receiving, shipping, manufacturing, billing, EDI, RPA) built in
  • Year 1–5: Internal team. Not needed. A pre-trained Invenits team is dedicated to your account, augmented by a per-customer AI
  • Year 1–5: Change orders. $0 — configuration is included
  • Year 3 & 5: Upgrade projects. $0 — always on the latest version, continuous deployment, no upgrade projects
  • 5-year TCO. Roughly 40–60% lower than enterprise WMS at comparable operational scale
Where the savings actually come from

Not from a smaller platform. From a smaller bill.

Invenits is the same architectural class as enterprise WMS — cloud-native, microservices, with the same scope of capability. The savings come from the business model, not from a stripped-down product.

Enterprise WMS pricing is structured around the assumption that the buyer will hire a team to run the platform after purchase. That team is the largest five-year cost. Invenits assumes the opposite: we run the platform for you. So the team-to-hire cost goes to zero.

Change orders are the second-largest cost in enterprise WMS contracts. Every retailer added, every business rule changed, every integration adjusted — billed separately, often at a premium. Invenits includes configuration changes in the subscription. They're not change orders; they're how the relationship works.

Upgrade projects are the third large cost. Enterprise WMS gates new capability behind annual upgrade cycles, professional services, version migration plans. Customers wait years for features the vendor has already built. Invenits ships continuously — always on the latest version, no upgrade projects, no version migrations, no waiting.

We charge for the result. Not for the team. Not for the change orders. Not for the upgrades.

01

No internal team

a pre-trained team is dedicated to your account, augmented by a per-customer AI — the work doesn't exist on your side

02

No change orders

configuration changes included; no per-change negotiation

03

No upgrade projects

continuous deployment, always on the latest version; no professional-services renewal cycle

04

No middleware tax

in-house EDI for 1,000+ retailers; no SPS or TrueCommerce surcharge
