Cin7 Core (formerly DEAR Systems) is a New Zealand-founded inventory platform that pairs core stock management with built-in purchasing, manufacturing/BOM, and deep multi-channel sync. Plans are tiered from a 5-user Standard tier up to a 15-user Advanced tier, all priced in USD. Many former TradeGecko users migrated to Cin7 Core after Intuit shut TradeGecko down in 2021. Implementation is more involved than lightweight tools, but the depth across inventory, manufacturing, and multi-channel is hard to match at this price point.
Cin7 Core was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand.

The same questions UK merchants ask before signing up.
Cin7 Core prices in USD, not GBP. The entry Standard plan covers 5 users, 2 e-commerce integrations, and up to 6,000 sales orders per year. An annual billing option is referenced on the site, though pricing is demo-gated ("Get a Demo") rather than self-serve checkout. If you need GBP-native pricing, inFlow Inventory and Unleashed both publish UK pound figures.
Yes. Cin7 Core has native integrations with both Xero and QuickBooks Online, covering purchase orders, invoices, stock valuations, and COGS. These are deep bidirectional syncs rather than lightweight invoice-push connectors. Sage is not natively supported; middleware is needed for Sage users.
Yes. Manufacturing and BOM support is one of Cin7 Core's strongest features. Standard assembly is included on all plans; multi-level BOM and MRP features come in on the Pro tier and above. An advanced production add-on is available for businesses with more complex manufacturing workflows. This depth is unusual at the Standard price point.
Cin7 Core syncs with Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, Amazon UK, and eBay, among others. The number of active integrations is metered by plan: 2 on Standard, 4 on Pro, and 6 on Advanced. Additional integrations beyond the plan limit are available as paid add-ons.
Cin7 Core does not have a permanent free plan. A free trial is referenced on the website, though the duration is not publicly confirmed. All paid plans require a demo to activate rather than a self-serve sign-up, so you will need to speak to the sales team before starting.
Cin7 Core includes ForesightAI, a native AI demand forecasting tool that analyses sales history to recommend reorder points and flag stock risks. ForesightAI is available as an add-on on the Standard plan and is built into Pro and Advanced. Cin7 acquired the Inventoro forecasting engine and incorporated it into ForesightAI.
Cin7 Core does not currently publish an official MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. It can be connected to AI agents and automation workflows via third-party tools such as Zapier, n8n, or community-built integrations. A public REST API is available for custom programmatic workflows.
