OneStock
Building an order routing engine and a store pick-and-pack app using AI code generation is achievable in weeks. However, replacing OneStock in an enterprise setting fails because of the brutal reality of integrating with hundreds of legacy store POS terminals, custom ERP setups, and disparate regional carrier APIs.

- Basic order allocation and multi-location inventory tracking.
- Simple rule-based order routing (e.g., nearest store, full order fulfillment).
- Mobile pick, pack, and ship-from-store associate web interface.

what you lose
- Pre-built enterprise connectors for legacy POS systems (Aptos, Cegid, GK Software, Oracle Xstore).

- Battle-tested store associate UI optimized for high-throughput, low-friction store fulfillment.
- Enterprise SLAs, SOC2/GDPR compliance assurance, and dedicated multi-tier support during peak holiday events.
