Billing and stock for a shop that also sells online
For a retail shop, filarity runs counter billing with barcode scanning, GST invoices, stock and supplier dues on any browser, phone or counter machine with one login. Staff roles keep margins hidden from billing assistants. It earns its price once online sales join the counter.

At the counter
Speed at the counter decides whether a system gets used or worked around. Scan, bill, print or send - and the invoice preview sits beside the entry form so mistakes are caught before the paper comes out.
- Barcode scanning for billing and for receiving stock
- GST invoices with CGST, SGST and IGST, or no tax columns at all if unregistered
- Print, PDF, or send to the customer on WhatsApp
- Works on a phone, a tablet or the machine at the counter, same login
Staff who bill without seeing your margins
Roles unlock sections individually. A billing assistant raises invoices and never reaches a cost price or the profit dashboard. This is usually the difference between cost prices being in the system and cost prices being in your head.
Behind the counter
Stock, purchases, supplier dues and expenses live in the same place as the billing, so the shop's numbers stop living across a notebook, a spreadsheet and a phone gallery of supplier bills.
When the shop starts selling online
This is where the shape of the problem changes. A Shopify store, a WhatsApp order book and a marketplace listing each report their own sales and none of them knows about the counter. filarity puts all of them in one ledger with cost price attached, so profit per product and margin per channel are one figure rather than four exports and an argument.
When it is not the right fit
If the counter loses internet regularly, an offline-first Android or desktop app will serve you better - filarity is browser-based and needs a connection to sync. And if you only need the cheapest possible GST invoices at one counter, a billing app at a few hundred rupees a year is the better buy. Both of those are real answers, not disclaimers.
Questions people actually ask
It does counter billing with barcode scanning, invoices, and stock, which covers what most small shops need from a POS. It is not tied to specific till hardware and it is not offline-first.
Yes. Staff accounts and per-section roles cover a small chain; every location bills into the same catalogue and the same profit reporting.
Yes. Invoices render with no tax columns and you can switch GST on later from Settings.
A browser and, if you want scanning, any standard USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner. A phone camera also works.

Ten minutes to set up. A month to decide. That's the whole risk.
