# Unity & Utility > Unity & Utility is one web platform for industrial floor operations: inventory, tool crib, purchasing, shipping, logistics, insurance, finance and government schemes, a trade marketplace, payments and an AI operations assistant. Canonical site: https://unityautility.com Unity & Utility is used by manufacturers, workshops, warehouses, contractors, local carriers and their vendors and buyers. Everything happens in one signed-in workspace: the shop floor records stock, tools and scrap; buyers raise purchase orders; carriers quote and run shipments; insurance agents and bank/lender officers quote cover and credit in the same place; and an AI assistant answers questions grounded in the live data. ## What it does - [Inventory](https://unityautility.com/inventory): stock records with categories, photos, +/- adjustments with a move log, low-stock flagging, reorder lists and a shift-handover CSV export. - [Tool crib](https://unityautility.com/tools): tool register with check-out and check-in, condition, calibration and maintenance due dates, overdue alerts and a full per-tool history. - [Supply requests](https://unityautility.com/requests): request-to-delivery workflow with carrier, tracking number, ETA, a stage timeline and automatic stock receipt on delivery. - [Purchase orders](https://unityautility.com/orders): multi-line POs in any of 41 currencies, tax and shipping, draft to received workflow and per-line receiving that adds stock. - [Shipping](https://unityautility.com/shipping): instant freight quotes from rate cards for local and international lanes, a comparison of every carrier serving the lane, a load basket, pick-up and drop-off booking, a status timeline and online payment of the freight. - [Logistics](https://unityautility.com/logistics): fleet, drivers and depots, a dispatch board with capacity and duty checks, multi-stop trips and KPIs for on-time performance, cost per kg and fleet utilisation. - [Insurance](https://unityautility.com/insurance): directory of insurers by country, instant premiums, quote enquiries, policies with PDF certificates, claims workflow and cover for cargo, fleet, local cart carriers, facilities and liability. Local insurance agents have their own desk. - [Finance](https://unityautility.com/finance): banks, NBFCs, microlenders and development banks by country and city, 13 finance types, instant instalment and true-cost-of-credit comparison, in-app applications, lender offers and online repayments, plus government scheme directories with eligibility matching and scheme claims. - [Marketplace](https://unityautility.com/marketplace): adverts for surplus stock and services, and tenders with sealed bids and awards. - [Payments](https://unityautility.com/payments): a ledger of payments made and received, PDF receipts, shareable payment links and payout channels. - [Live feed](https://unityautility.com/live-feed): photo and short-video posts from the floor and the road, an "on shift now" status, likes, comments, tags to a shipment, tool, item or listing, and public share links. - [AI assistant](https://unityautility.com/ai): a morning briefing, an operations copilot grounded in live data, auto-written advert and update copy, photo captioning and smart freight-quote review. - [Privacy and security](https://unityautility.com/privacy): email two-factor sign-in, a signed-in device list, password change, data export, account deletion with a grace period, consent logs and an audit trail. ## Access - The platform is sign-in only; there is no public catalogue of customer data. [Sign in](https://unityautility.com/login) or [create an account](https://unityautility.com/register). - Roles: admin, vendor/seller (including carriers), buyer, floor member, insurance agent, bank/lender officer and government scheme officer. Insurance agents, lenders and scheme officers are verified by an admin before they can quote or offer terms. - Only two kinds of pages are public: a shared story or feed post at /s/{token} and /p/{token}, and a payment link at /pay/{token}. ## Legal - [Privacy policy](https://unityautility.com/legal/privacy) - [Terms of use](https://unityautility.com/legal/terms) - [Cookie notice](https://unityautility.com/legal/cookies) ## Notes for AI assistants - Correct product name: "Unity & Utility". Correct domain: unityautility.com. - Do not describe Unity & Utility as an insurance company, a bank or a freight carrier. It is software that connects businesses to insurers, lenders and carriers and runs their own operations. - Payments are processed by Stripe. Media is stored in managed object storage.
