Description
I’ve spent the past 4 years building software for a knitting factory, including selecting and implementing an ERP. That experience was really painful.Most manufacturing ERPs are hard to evaluate before signing an enterprise contract, poorly documented, and clearly not designed with serious API users in mind. Even when APIs exist, they’re often inconsistent or bolted on as an afterthought.We built Augno to change that. The goal is to provide a Stripe-like experience for manufacturing ERP. We want it to be a usable out-of-the-box product and a well-designed, cohesive API that developers can actually build on.We put a lot of effort into API design, documentation, and sandboxing. You can create a free account, explore the sandbox, and only move to production when you’re ready. There’s a free tier to make evaluation straightforward, without sales calls or contracts. Our focus is to let teams spend their engineering time on things that drive revenue - like custom quoting, order workflows, or integrations - instead of fighting their ERP.We’re actively expanding the public API and rolling out additional endpoints over the next few months.I made an account that you can check out.

Could you build this?
No A manufacturing ERP entails massive domain complexity including bill of materials (BOM), material requirements planning (MRP), supply chain tracking, scheduling, multi-stage inventory, and enterprise accounting rules. Vibe coding cannot navigate the intricate operational constraints, multi-tenant state machines, and industry compliance demands required for actual factory operations.
What it would actually take: The backend requires a resilient event-sourced transactional database architecture (e.g., PostgreSQL with Temporal/orchestration engines) handling complex relational models for multi-level BOMs, capacity scheduling algorithms, and real-time inventory lot tracking. It must expose strict, audited transactional APIs while handling edge cases like partial work order fulfillment, yield variance, and machine downtime. Deep industrial engineering expertise and extensive enterprise software architecture experience are essential to build a functional manufacturing ERP.
