    Who it's for

    Built for growing manufacturers

    Likwid is for medium-scale manufacturers across India who've outgrown Excel and Tally, but don't want the cost and drag of SAP.

    You know the drill: stock in one sheet, orders in another, production on a whiteboard, Tally for the books. Nothing talks to each other, and every number is a day old — the usual starting point for a spreadsheet to ERP move.

    Likwid replaces all of it with one AI-native platform — and you're live and running in about three weeks, not a year. If you're shortlisting systems here, see the case for the best ERP for Indian manufacturers.

    AI-native to the core

    Agents run procurement, scheduling and collections — not just dashboards you fill in.

    Off spreadsheets & Tally

    Stock, orders, production and books finally live in one connected place.

    Priced for the mid-market

    A full manufacturing ERP without the enterprise price tag or complexity.

    Live in three weeks

    Migration, setup and go-live — done in weeks, not quarters.

    How it works

    Five everyday jobs, before and after

    The work most factories still do by hand — and how it runs on Likwid. Scroll through the stack.

    01

    Production Planning

    Today · A planner and a spreadsheet

    • The schedule is rebuilt in Excel every Monday morning
    • Machine availability is confirmed by walking the floor
    • Exploding the BOM by hand takes three to four hours
    • One late material and the whole plan is redone

    With Likwid · Scheduling from live data

    • Reads open orders, machine capacity, and the BOM together
    • Produces a working schedule in seconds, not hours
    • Re-plans automatically when a machine or order changes
    • Ask it: “What's the earliest I can ship order #4821?”
    02

    Procurement

    Today · Phone calls, emails, and a spreadsheet

    • Someone lists the shortfall materials by hand
    • Six to eight vendors are contacted; quotes take two or three days
    • Quotes are compared in a spreadsheet
    • The PO is retyped into the system or emailed as a PDF

    With Likwid · Requests raised the moment stock runs short

    • A work order raises the RFQ on its own
    • Vendors get it by email, and voice AI chases the slow ones
    • Quotes are ranked on price, lead time, and past quality
    • You approve; the PO goes out in one click
    03

    Inventory

    Today · A stock count at month-end

    • Stock is reconciled once a month, often too late
    • Shortages surface only when a line stops
    • No single view across warehouses and plants
    • Slow-moving stock quietly ties up working capital

    With Likwid · One live view across every location

    • Real-time stock across all warehouses and plants
    • Reorder is triggered when an item hits its safety level
    • Slow-movers are flagged before capital is stuck
    • Roughly one to two weeks' warning before a stockout
    04

    Quality Control

    Today · Inspection sheets and a rejection register

    • Checks are recorded on paper at the line
    • Rejections are written into a register
    • Vendor quality isn't tracked in any consistent way
    • A batch recall means searching through old records

    With Likwid · Checks and traceability on record

    • QC checklists filled on a tablet or phone
    • A failed batch blocks the next step automatically
    • Each vendor is scored on the quality of what they ship
    • Trace any batch end to end in a few seconds
    05

    Reporting

    Today · Two days of pulling numbers together

    • A report request means an accountant loses two days
    • Data is stitched from three separate spreadsheets
    • By the time it's reviewed, the numbers have moved
    • No live view of what's happening on the floor

    With Likwid · Answers from the same data, on demand

    • Ask for “last month's output by line” and get it now
    • Dashboards update as production runs
    • Variance alerts arrive before anyone has to ask
    • Export a board-ready summary in one click
    One system

    From order to paid, one flow

    A single order cascades through the whole factory — each step feeding the next, with nobody rekeying anything.

    Orders become a buy list. The BOM explodes, demand nets against stock, open POs and WIP, and each line lands as Produce or Procure with the arithmetic shown — so approving an indent takes seconds, not an afternoon.

    Questions

    What manufacturers ask before switching

    Choosing an ERP is a multi-year decision. These are the questions we hear most, answered plainly.

    Talk to us

    It depends on your size and complexity. For manufacturers with 10–500 employees, Likwid covers the essentials — BOM, production planning, shop floor — alongside agentic procurement and a plain-language AI copilot, at per-user pricing that stays affordable as you grow. Larger operations often evaluate SAP Business One or Odoo, but the cost and rollout time are higher, and neither acts on your data the way Likwid's agents do.

    A traditional ERP stores what you type and gives it back as reports. Likwid also acts on that data. When a work order is created, it works out material requirements, raises RFQs with your vendors over email and voice AI, ranks the quotes, and drafts the PO for your approval — without someone starting each step by hand. You can also ask questions in plain language, like “which lines are behind today?”, and get an answer in seconds instead of waiting for a report.

    SAP Business One and Odoo are capable ERPs, but they were built to record transactions, not run the work, and Tally is accounting software that doesn't plan production at all. Likwid layers autonomous agents on top of the ERP — procurement, scheduling and collections execute on their own — plus a natural-language copilot and ML forecasting that the others gate behind add-ons or don't offer. It also goes live in about three weeks, and starts at $20/user/month with no per-module fees or seat minimums.

    Yes — that's who it's built for: plants that have outgrown Tally and Excel but don't want a year-long SAP project. Pricing starts at $20/user/month with every module included, go-live is around three weeks, and the interface is built for operators rather than IT staff.

    It varies by system. SAP Business One typically takes 12–18 months with certified partners; Odoo and ERPNext take three to six months. Likwid's onboarding is usually around three weeks and covers migrating data from Excel or Tally, setting up BOMs, onboarding vendors, training users, and running in parallel before you switch over. There's no charge for onboarding on the cloud plans.

    Likwid has straightforward per-user pricing: Cloud at $20/user/month (hosted, all modules, no per-module fees) and Enterprise with dedicated support. For comparison, SAP Business One starts at ₹50 lakh in implementation alone, and Tally Prime at ₹18,000/year covers accounting only. Full pricing is on the pricing page.

    Yes. Many manufacturers keep Tally for GST filing and statutory compliance while Likwid runs production, inventory, procurement and the shop floor. Financial data flows from Likwid into Tally, so your accounts team keeps its process. Plenty of customers run this way for the first year or so before moving fully to Likwid's own Books module.

    Yes, built in. Purchase orders and invoices are GST-compliant, e-way bills are generated, TDS is tracked and multi-state tax is handled, with GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B-ready exports. It also supports multi-entity and multi-plant operations.

    MRP is one part of ERP. It answers a single question: how much of each raw material do I need, and when should I order it, based on the schedule and the BOM. ERP is the wider system — MRP plus finance, inventory, procurement, quality and sales. Likwid includes an MRP engine inside the full manufacturing ERP, so you get both in one place.

    Yes. It runs in the browser on any device. Operators update job cards on a tablet, managers approve POs from a phone, and the Likwid AI Agent answers questions in plain language so you can check on the factory without opening a laptop. There's no separate app to install.
