Storely is a warehouse management system for small and mid-size third-party logistics operators. It separates client inventory and tracks lots, expiry dates and quarantine statuses, with reporting. Teams can group orders into waves, pick in first-expiry-first-out order and confirm picks by barcode scan. Scanning works with a phone camera for Code 128, QR, EAN, UPC and Data Matrix codes, or with keyboard-wedge hardware scanners. Billing tools support client-specific rate cards, automatic capture of billing events and monthly invoice generation. The Pro plan adds a client portal, QuickBooks Online sync, REST API access and outbound webhooks. An optional module supports bill-of-materials definitions and assembly jobs for kitting and bundling. Basic costs $399 a month and includes one warehouse and up to 250 clients; Pro costs $1,599 a month for up to 1000 clients and two warehouses. Both plans include unlimited warehouse users and orders. A 30-day trial is listed; there is no free plan.
