About Merla

Merla started with a problem we kept running into. Counting stock by hand takes forever, and the numbers are wrong again by the time you finish. We wanted a count you could actually trust, so we built one around RFID.

The problem

We've spent time close to stores and warehouses with large stock, and we've seen what counting it really looks like. Doors close for a full day while inventory is tallied by hand, one label at a time, and the numbers are out of date the moment the count finishes.

The pattern

The same thing came up everywhere we looked. Stock figures drifted, counts ate whole days, and people made decisions on numbers they didn't quite believe.

Our answer

So we built Merla. A full count takes minutes instead of days, and the numbers stay right in between counts.

What we care about.

How we build the product, and how we work with the people using it.

Built for the floor

Inventory work happens in stores and warehouses, not spreadsheets. We build for the people actually holding the scanner.

Accuracy you can trust

A stock figure is only useful if you believe it. Everything we build is aimed at counts you do not have to double-check.

Simple to start

You should be able to tag a location and see results the same day. Setup stays light on purpose.

Honest and close

We stay close to the businesses we work with, listen to what's actually slowing them down, and build for that.

Based in Reykjavík, Iceland.

A small team working close to the people and businesses we build for.

Local, on purpose

We're a small Icelandic team. Being local means we can stand in your stockroom, watch how a count actually goes, and fix what we find.
