our call
Start with B2B Wave — highest vibe code, weakest moat.
B2B Wave
A private portal with custom price lists and quick-order matrix forms is easy to build using modern full-stack frameworks. You only pay for B2B Wave to avoid maintaining sync logic with legacy accounting software like QuickBooks, Xero, or Sage.

- Gated customer login portal and account approval workflow
- Customer-specific price lists and tiered quantity discounts
- Matrix quick-order grid for high-volume SKU entry
- Sales rep ordering portal with customer impersonation
- Minimum order quantities (MOQ) and custom currency overrides
what you lose
- Out-of-the-box bi-directional sync with QuickBooks, Xero, and Sage
- Built-in PDF invoice generation and automated email dispatches
- Turnkey sales rep commission assignment and basic reporting

real moats
- Pre-built integrations with legacy accounting software and ERPs
- Operational lock-in on customer purchasing workflows

OrderEase
Building a custom wholesale order portal with custom price books takes days using AI builders. However, OrderEase's core moat is its pre-built integration connectors for legacy desktop ERPs (Sage, QuickBooks Desktop) and ANSI X12 EDI document mapping, which are tedious and brittle to maintain in-house.
