What it does

What Sauna does for materials managers

  1. 01

    Flag the shortages

    Plan replenishment

    Reads reorder points and lead times from Airtable and drafts replenishment orders sized to coverage, ready for you to release.

    Reconcile cycle counts

Sauna shows up where you already work — the web app, Slack, email, iMessage, and Superhuman. It reads what it needs, does the task, and comes back with the draft for your approval.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Will it release purchase orders automatically?

No. It sizes and drafts replenishment orders against your reorder points, but nothing is released or sent to a supplier until you approve it.

How does it know what will short?

It compares your connected on-hand inventory against your build schedule and shows the math — the part, the shortfall, and the date it bites — so you can trust the flag.

Is my data safe?

Sauna reads only what you connect, and acts only after you approve. Your workspace and its memory are yours, not training data.
