You should own
your database.
Celerp is free, local-first ERP software - inventory, invoicing, CRM, and accounting - that runs on your machine. Works for one person or a 50-person office. No monthly fees. No per-seat billing. No vendor lock-in.
No account needed · Your data stays local · Works offline
One app. Three jobs done.
Stop juggling spreadsheets, separate accounting software, and disconnected tools. Celerp does it all - locally, for free.
Know exactly what you have
Real-time stock levels, FIFO/FEFO/LIFO costing, expiration date tracking, batch and lot numbers, reorder alerts, weight-based selling. Inventory that actually reflects how your business works.
Invoice, buy, and track cash flow
Create invoices, purchase orders, quotes, and credit notes in seconds. Automatic journal entries. PDF export. Share with anyone - no account required on their end.
Know if you're actually profitable
Double-entry ledger, chart of accounts, trial balance, P&L report. Every document auto-generates journal entries. Real books, not approximations.
Run it yourself.
Or let an AI agent run it.
Celerp's full REST API is free and local - point Claude, GPT, or your own scripts at it and automate anything: draft purchase orders when stock runs low, reconcile invoices, and pull plain-language reports on your margins. Don't want to worry about building it? The in-app AI assistant is part of Celerp Connect.
- Full REST API - every operation available programmatically
- Works with Claude, GPT-4, and any agent that can call HTTP endpoints
- No special integration needed - it's just a local API
- Automate reordering, reconciliation, and reporting

How Celerp compares
The same features. $0 instead of $55–$99/mo. The only things you give up are the monthly invoice and the vendor's control over your data.

What's the catch?
There isn't one. Here's exactly how this works and how we make money.

Zero friction to start
Download and run. No email address, no registration, no onboarding call. You're in your first session within 2 minutes of downloading.
How we make money
The desktop app is free. We charge for optional Connect features: connector sync (Shopify, QuickBooks, Xero), encrypted backups, and AI. That's it.
