What this solves
What a footwear karkhana deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Mandi wholesalers pay weeks or months late by chit or PDC, and chits are discounted at a heavy cost. Leather per pair is not known and cutters waste leather.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 2 workflows, 4 registers and 5 licences for a footwear karkhana, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
Where you sit
MatruOS starts from how your business earns

Credit and cash
Leather and soles on 15-60 days; wholesalers pay weeks to months later, often by dated chit or PDC; karigars weekly on piece rate with advances
Thin working capital: buys on credit, sells on deferred chits; informal financiers discount chits; Saturday wages must be paid in cash whatever the mandi pays
