Warehouse Management Software with a Visual Floor Plan

Draw your real space on an infinite canvas — warehouses, rooms, aisles and racks — then map every item to the exact spot it physically lives.

  • Rectangle, L-shape or freeform outlines you draw yourself
  • Place aisles, rotate them, and stack multiple floors per aisle
  • See item counts on the map and click straight into any aisle
  • Undo and redo every change — experiment without fear

What is visual warehouse management?

Most inventory tools ask you to type a location like "A-12-3" and hope everyone remembers what that means. Visual warehouse management flips it around: you draw your building the way it actually looks, place your aisles where they really stand, and drop items onto them. New staff can find stock on their first shift because the screen looks like the room they are standing in.

In Inventory Inventory, a warehouse is a shape you draw — a simple rectangle, an L-shape, or a freeform outline traced corner by corner. Inside it, aisles are rectangles you can move, resize and rotate, each holding as many stacked floors as your racking has levels.

What you get

Draw your actual building

Freeform outlines follow real walls, docks and awkward corners — not a grid someone else designed.

Aisles with real floors

Every aisle holds multiple levels, so a five-shelf rack is five addressable floors, not one vague location.

Rotate to match reality

Angled racking is normal in real warehouses. Rotate any aisle to the degree so the map matches the floor.

Item counts on the map

Each aisle shows how much it holds at a glance, so dead space and overloaded rows are obvious.

Multiple locations

Run several warehouses and see them together on one supply-chain map; archive a location without deleting its layout.

Undo anything

Full undo and redo across moves, resizes and placements — including restoring an aisle you deleted.

A map beats a location code

The fastest onboarding for warehouse staff is a picture of the warehouse. Point at the screen, point at the aisle, done — no code sheet to memorise.

How it works

1

Draw the outline

Pick Rectangle, L-shape or Freeform and trace your space. Name it and set its colour.

2

Add aisles and floors

Drag out each aisle, set how many floors it has, and rotate it to match the real layout.

3

Place your stock

Drag items from the unassigned tray onto a floor — or tell the AI Assistant to move them for you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I really need a warehouse map for a small stockroom?

Not always — if you have one shelf unit, a plain item list is faster. The map earns its keep the moment someone other than you has to find something, or you pass roughly 100 items across more than one room. A good test: if you have ever said "it is in the back, on the left, near the top" out loud, a map will save you that conversation forever.

How is this different from just writing bin locations like A-12-3?

Bin codes work but they live in people’s heads and on printed sheets. A visual map carries the same information plus context — which aisle is near the door, what is next to what, how full a row is. You can still name your aisles A1, A2 and so on; the difference is that new staff can see where A2 actually is.

Can I have more than one warehouse or location?

Yes, and they appear together on a shared supply-chain map you can drag into the arrangement that matches your real geography. Items know which warehouse they are in, so stock counts stay separate per location while your item catalogue stays unified.

What if my warehouse layout changes?

Move, resize, rotate or reshape anything at any time — the items on an aisle travel with it. Nothing is locked after setup, and every edit is undoable, so seasonal re-layouts are a five-minute job rather than a data migration.

Is this a full WMS with picking and shipping?

No, and we would rather be honest about that. This is warehouse mapping and inventory control: where stock lives, what you have, what to reorder. There is no wave picking, carrier rate shopping or dock scheduling. For most small and mid-size operations that is exactly the right amount of software.
