You don't run a business. You run four.

Guanix is software for entrepreneurs. Set up each of your businesses in minutes — a restaurant, a shop, a distribution line — run each on a system shaped to how it actually works, and see all of them in one place.

The problem

Business software assumes you have one business.

So the person running three ends up with three logins, three subscriptions, three half-configured systems that don't speak — and a spreadsheet on Sunday night to work out how the week actually went.

The stack doesn't fit

Restaurant software can't run your retail counter. Retail software has no idea what a kitchen ticket is. Anything general enough for both is too generic to be useful for either, so you configure around the gaps forever.

There's no whole picture

Each system knows its own numbers and nothing else. The only place your businesses exist together is in your head — and that's the view you most need on a Monday morning.

One view

Every business you run, on one screen.

Revenue, orders in flight, staff on shift — per business and totalled. Businesses in different countries stay in their own currency instead of being added into a meaningless number. Open one and you're inside that business; close it and you're back above all of them.

One owner, several businesses, one consolidated view An owner signs in once. Each of their businesses — a restaurant, a shop, a distribution line — runs on its own isolated system and database. The consolidated view queries each business directly and merges the answers, without ever combining the businesses' data into shared storage. You one login · every business Consolidated view asks each business, merges the answers Restaurant its own database Retail shop its own database Distribution its own database
The businesses are never merged into shared storage — only the answers are.
Customization

Describe the business. It builds itself around you.

Setup starts with you writing what you do, in your own words — including if that's several businesses at once. Guanix maps that into the right kind of system for each, with the roles, terminology and workflow that belong to it. Then it keeps adapting: ask for a field you need, a report you keep rebuilding by hand, a rule you keep enforcing from memory.

Set up by describing it

“I run a Coorg restaurant and a small provisions store next door.” That's the setup step — two businesses, configured for what each one is.

Ask about your own numbers

“Which supplier raised prices most this month?” “Which outlet is slowest on Tuesdays?” Answered from your own records, across every business you run.

It drafts, you approve

Purchase orders, price changes, rosters: prepared and queued, cleared by you in one batch. It never commits a change on its own.

Editions

The system each business gets is built for that business.

Not one template with the irrelevant parts hidden. Each edition brings its own data model, workflow and vocabulary — an order in a restaurant and a sale in a shop are genuinely different things, and pretending otherwise is how business software becomes a spreadsheet with extra steps.

🍽️ Restaurant menu · tables · kitchen — built 🛍️ Retail products · inventory — planned 💊 Pharmacy drugs · prescriptions — planned 🚚 Logistics shipments · waybills — planned 🏢 Corporate assets · expenses — planned

Restaurant is the only edition built out today — menu, tables, kitchen and roles. The others are named because that's the plan, not because they're ready; each gets built when a real customer's second business needs it. A till that keeps selling through a power cut is being built too, and isn't finished — so if you need offline billing this week, we're not yet the answer.

Privacy & security

One database per business. Not one database with a business column.

Most multi-tenant software puts every customer in shared tables and separates them with a WHERE tenant_id = ?. One forgotten filter leaks someone else's sales. Guanix doesn't have that failure mode, because the separation is structural rather than remembered — and that holds between your own businesses too.

Economics

Priced so your second business isn't punished.

Most software charges you a full seat-and-subscription for every business you add, which is why running three costs three times as much as running one — for the same person, at the same desk. Guanix has no servers idling overnight: compute exists only while a request is being handled. Adding a business costs us cents, so it shouldn't cost you a second subscription.

No idle cost

Nothing runs between orders. A business that closes at 11pm stops costing anything at 11pm.

Storage that lasts

A busy outlet writes about a megabyte a day. Years of history fit comfortably per business.

Built for the small end

Designed so a single-outlet business is profitable to serve — not subsidised until you open your fifth.

Early access

Run more than one thing? We'd like to meet you.

We're onboarding a small number of entrepreneurs by hand so we can sit with the businesses and watch this fail before we scale it. If that sounds like software you'd want, leave an address.

We use your address only to contact you about early access. It isn't sold or shared, and you can ask us to delete it at any time by replying to any message we send.
