I’m building a lightweight warehouse layout planner — looking for feedback from warehouse/ops people

Hi everyone,
I’m building a small browser-based tool for warehouse layout planning and I’d love feedback from people who actually work in warehousing, logistics or operations.

The idea is simple: many small/medium warehouses still manage layout, racks, bin locations and picking areas with Excel, printed maps, handwritten labels or “people just know where things are”.

The tool lets you:

* draw a 2D warehouse layout with racks, aisles, docks and operational zones; * automatically generate bin/location codes; * assign SKUs to locations; * classify products by A/B/C rotation; * view the layout in 3D; * print QR labels for locations; * export locations/reports; * test a simple optimized picking path.

It is **not meant to replace a full WMS**.
It’s more of a planning / mapping / slotting tool for small warehouses that want to get organized before going into a more complex system.

I’m looking for 5-10 people willing to test a demo and give honest feedback.

What I’d like to understand:

  1. Is this actually useful in a real warehouse?
  2. What is missing or unrealistic?
  3. Would you use something like this before implementing a WMS?
  4. How do you currently manage bin locations and warehouse maps?
  5. What would make this a “must-have” instead of a nice-to-have?

No sales pitch. I’m just trying to validate the problem and improve the product with real feedback.

If you manage a warehouse, work in logistics, or have dealt with messy layouts/bin locations, I’d really appreciate your thoughts.

Abbiamo creato EventiInTasca, una piattaforma gratuita per scoprire e promuovere eventi del tuo territorio

Ciao a tutti! 😊

Siamo un gruppo di ragazzi della Basilicata e abbiamo creato EventiInTasca, una piattaforma gratuita nata per raccogliere e dare più visibilità agli eventi del territorio.

L’idea è semplice: spesso eventi, sagre, concerti, incontri culturali, attività per famiglie e iniziative locali sono sparsi tra pagine social, locandine, gruppi WhatsApp o passaparola. Noi vorremmo creare un punto unico dove chi vive in Basilicata — o chi viene a visitarla — possa scoprire facilmente cosa succede vicino a sé.

Chi organizza eventi può:

pubblicarli direttamente sulla piattaforma;

inviarci le informazioni via email o tramite i nostri canali;

chiederci supporto per caricarli: penseremo noi a inserirli e dare conferma quando saranno online.

Il servizio è completamente gratuito.

In più, attraverso i nostri canali social, cerchiamo di dare ulteriore visibilità agli eventi condividendo e repostando i contenuti degli organizzatori.

Ci farebbe piacere ricevere feedback, consigli o segnalazioni da chi vive il territorio: associazioni, comuni, pro loco, locali, artisti, organizzatori o semplicemente persone curiose di scoprire nuovi eventi.

Sito: www.eventiintasca.it

Email: registra-evento@eventiintasca.it

Grazie a chi vorrà darci un parere o aiutarci a far girare il progetto 🙏
