Fuseinventory

Fuse Inventory is a demand planning and inventory control software company serving fast-growth, multi-channel consumer brands. Its platform centralizes sales, warehouse/3PL and supplier data and spans three product areas: Fuse Inventory Control (supply planning, procurement, purchase order and shipment workflows, vendor and invoice management, fulfillment and accounting, plus landed unit cost by batch including components, shipping and duties); Fuse Demand Forecast (daily AI-generated SKU-level demand forecasts and automated supply plans with restock recommendations that account for seasonality, marketing events, product launches and phase-outs); and Fuse Cash Flow Forecast (daily cash flow projections tied to inventory plans, forecast-vs-actual reporting, and support for month-end close and reconciliation).

Functionally, the system tracks every SKU, component, batch and shipment across multiple warehouses and distribution channels, and supports bills of materials, component-level and finished-goods inventory, batch and lot tracking, transfer orders, location-specific reorder points and allocation, multi-currency, duty and landed cost calculation, unlimited variants with matrix and parent-child SKU views, expiration date tracking, and promotional, seasonal, launch and phase-out planning. It is marketed for brands managing 100 to 10,000+ SKUs across DTC/e-commerce (Shopify, Amazon), wholesale (e.g. Nordstrom, Sephora) and retail distribution.

Earlier company materials describe Fuse as an inventory planning system that turns data across systems into a predictive inventory plan, replacing Excel and legacy ERP approaches, with the stated aim of freeing working capital by minimizing overstocks and stockouts.

Founding story

Fuse was co-founded by CEO Rachel Liaw and CTO Bridget Vuong, who met as Stanford University undergraduates. Before Fuse, Liaw was a co-founder at Parasol Co and a supply chain manager at Kiwi Crate, and Vuong was a software engineer at Google contributing to Waze and Helpouts. The company was described at its 2019 seed announcement as a rare pair of female co-founders and a graduate of the Alchemist Accelerator.

Business model

Fuse sells a B2B software platform to consumer brands, combining inventory control, AI-driven demand forecasting and cash flow forecasting modules. Access is offered with unlimited seats, and the company pairs software with expert data validation ("data vetted by experts"), positioning itself as a system of record for supply chain operations rather than a point tool.

Software sold to brands, with unlimited seats included; specific pricing is not disclosed publicly. One third-party directory estimates annual revenue in the $1M-$10M range.

Traction

At the time of the 2019 seed announcement, Fuse had more than 20 brands on its platform, including Glossier, MeUndies, LOLA, Soludos and Snowe. Current site figures cite 792K SKUs managed, $4B in gross sales volume managed and 28K purchase orders placed, with testimonials from SuitShop, Snowe and Margaux. Company materials state customers have reduced inventory glut by 70% and realized 10% more revenue from staying in stock, and cite brands such as True Botanicals, Bocce's and APL. Third-party listings put headcount at roughly 11-20 (about 12 as of July 2026).

Latest developments

The company's blog has continued publishing in 2025, including pieces on strategies for mitigating tariffs and changes to global supply chains (April 2025). Its current site markets three modules — Inventory Control, Demand Forecast and Cash Flow Forecast — and cites cumulative platform figures of 792K SKUs managed, $4B of gross sales volume managed and 28K purchase orders placed. Third-party directories list roughly 11-20 employees and total funding of about $3M.
