Three things that happen in your shop every day

Amber-scented candleCost per piece ₺96.00 · 52% margin

You price by looking at the market, without knowing your cost.

Enter the product's recipe once: how much wax, how many wicks, which jar, the label. Çetele works out cost per piece; enter a selling price and you see the margin. No more guessing whether you're selling at a loss.

Net cash this month +₺4,860Sales ₺9,400.00 · Purchases ₺4,120.00

Material purchases blur together; by month's end you don't know what you earned.

Enter every purchase and every sale as a short line. The Cash screen shows the net for the week and month: sales, purchases and losses at a glance. Which product earns and which one just keeps you busy, side by side in the report.

Running lowJars 5 days · Wicks 8 days · Soy wax 12 days

An order comes in and you're out of jars.

From your batch records Çetele knows how fast each material goes and tells you how many days it will last. Jars, wicks, wax: the low ones come first.

What do you tell Çetele?

Five short lines. Çetele works out the rest.

Frequently asked questions

How do I set the selling price of a handmade product?

First you need to know the cost. In Çetele you enter the product's recipe: how much of each material goes in, packaging and label included. Cost per piece is worked out by itself. Enter a selling price and you see the margin; set your price from there.

I started as a hobby and have very few records. Is Çetele for me?

Yes. Recording purchases, batches, sales, waste and stock counts is free forever, with no ads. For your first 40 records everything is open, cash and reports included; if the business grows, you continue with Çetele Pro. You can try it without signing in.

How do I enter sales from Instagram and marketplaces?

It doesn't matter where they came from; enter the product and quantity you sold as “I recorded sales”. Çetele deducts the materials from the recipe and works out your profit. It doesn't track orders or shipping.

Is my data safe?

No ads, no data selling, no tracking. Your data is visible only to you and the people you add to your business. You can delete your account and all your data yourself from inside the app.

What else do you do?

Çetele works for any small shop that buys materials and makes things, or buys goods and resells them.

The numbers for your kitchen-table business, in your pocket.
