Because a person who logs in costs almost nothing to run. What costs is the database working and the data it stores, so that is what you pay for. Adding the warehouse, the drivers or a part-time bookkeeper does not change the bill by itself.

What makes the bill go up, then?

Three things, all visible day by day in your settings: the hours your database is on and how much CPU it has, the GB you store, and the GB that leave it. The database sleeps when nobody uses it, and asleep it uses no CPU.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe what you need in plain words and your AI builds it. If someone on your team does code, they can read and change the code of every app and automation, because it is yours.

Claude, ChatGPT or any assistant that supports MCP connectors. You add Gufi as a connector once, and your assistant can then build and change your system. Gufi also includes its own AI each month for the chat inside the app.

How long does it take to build an ERP system this way?

Your first working app can be ready within the first hour. The core of a small company takes a week, and a full system with a dozen apps takes a few weeks of part-time work, not a project of months.

Who owns the data and the system?

You do. Each company runs on its own database, separate from every other company. You can export any table at any time, and there is no commitment: you can leave whenever you want.

Can you build it for me instead?

Yes. If you would rather not build it yourself, our team can build it for you as a separate service with a monthly fee. See the Custom page for how that works.

Custom ERP

A custom ERP, built by your AI. Users are free, you pay for what it uses

Connect Claude or ChatGPT to Gufi and describe how your company works. It builds the tables, the screens and the automations while you watch. Then you pay for the structure it runs on, not for each person who logs in.

Why companies end up building their own

The three usual ways to get an ERP, and where each one hurts.

Packaged ERP bends you to its process, and charges per seat

Off-the-shelf systems come with their idea of how a company runs. You pay for every user, then pay a consultant to switch off half of it, and the part you actually needed is a customisation quoted separately.

An agency build is a quote, then months

A development agency scopes it, quotes it and delivers it months later. Every change after that is a new ticket and a new invoice, and the only people who understand the code are theirs.

Spreadsheets are the ERP nobody trusts

Everyone already has one. Ten versions of the same file, formulas that break when someone sorts a column, and no record of who changed a price or a quantity.

How it gets built

Your AI does the building. Gufi is where it lives: the database, the apps, the automations and the people who use them.

1
Sign up
Create your company in Gufi. It gets its own database, separate from every other company. The trial needs no card.
2
Connect your AI
Add Gufi as a connector in Claude or ChatGPT. It is one address to paste; the Connect AI screen in Gufi walks you through it.
3
Describe how you work
Say what you sell, what you buy, what you hold and who does what. Your AI creates the tables, the screens and the automations, and you see each one appear in Gufi.
4
Bring your team
Invite everyone who needs it, each with a role that shows them only their part. Adding people does not add a licence.

What you get when your AI builds it

Your own tables

The data model of your company, not a template.

any fields you need
links between tables
formulas
files and photos
statuses that drive the workflow

Apps for each job

Screens built for one person and one task.

a dashboard for the manager
a phone screen for the field
printable documents

Automations

Code that runs on its own, written by your AI and kept in your company.

on a new or changed record
on a schedule
on a button
emails, PDFs and calls to other systems

Roles and permissions

Each person sees what their job needs.

roles you name yourself
access per table and per app
read only or full access

Your data in and out

Per-user licences, compared

Most ERPs charge for every person who logs in. That is easy to read and expensive to grow: the bill goes up with each hire, whether that person enters ten records a day or one a month.

€50 of Gufi AI included every month. Plus what you use:

Per CPU hour while your database is on: €1.37
Per GB stored, per month: €4.52
Per GB that leaves your database: €1.29

Example: a team of 5 with the database on during office hours (10 h a day, 22 days) comes to about €75 a month. The database sleeps when nobody uses it, and asleep it uses no CPU.

An example monthly bill

A team of 5 using the system during office hours, at today's prices.

5 users: Free
Database on: a quarter of a CPU, 10 h a day, 22 days (55 CPU hours): €75.21
1 GB stored: €4.52
1 GB out of your database: €1.29
Gufi AI, within the €50 included: €0.00
Total for the month: €81.01

Twenty people working the same hours would get the same bill: the users line stays free. What moves it is how many hours the database works, how much CPU you give it and how much you store. You see it day by day in your settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

An ERP built around how one company works: its products, its stock, its orders and its documents, with the fields and steps it actually uses. A packaged ERP is the opposite: one system for everyone, adapted with settings and consultants.
