About the project
Core is a business management system I am designing and building on my own. It brings finance, sales, stock, tax documents, projects and people into one product, so a small or mid-sized company can run its day without jumping between spreadsheets and disconnected tools.

What it is
A system for running a company from end to end: money coming in and going out, sales, purchases, stock, production, tax documents, projects, the sales pipeline and the team. Everything shares the same data, so a sale updates the stock, the invoice and the cash flow without anyone typing it twice.


The idea
Management systems are powerful and tiring. Screens are crowded, every task hides behind menus and new people take weeks to feel at home. The idea behind Core is the opposite: keep the depth a company needs and make each screen answer one question clearly, such as what is due today, what is waiting for my approval or how the month is going.



The proposal
One product for every area, with the same patterns everywhere. Someone who learns to register a sale already knows how to register a purchase, a task or an employee. It also follows how companies work in Brazil, with tax documents, tax calculation and the reports accountants ask for, and it lets each company adapt forms, reports and colours to its own way of working without calling a developer.






The goal
Give smaller companies the control large ones have, without the cost and the learning curve that usually come with it. Core is still in development: the screens here come from the working product, filled with fictional data, and each area is being refined with real routines before launch.
