Cognit is an all-in-one business system. It replaces the tangle of separate tools most businesses limp along on — a website here, stock in a spreadsheet, accounting somewhere else — with one connected platform that Zeabyte builds, hosts and supports.
Your customers order from a built-in online store. Those orders flow straight into inventory, invoicing and a real general ledger — automatically. You see your whole business, in real time, in one login.
One login. Every part of your business.
Each module is fully built and ready — switch on what you need, add the rest as you grow.
Built-in online store
A branded B2B e-commerce storefront baked right into the ERP. Customers log in, see their own pricing, reorder from saved pantries and order 24/7 — and it shares the same live stock as everything else.
Sales & orders
Quote-to-cash in one flow — customer pricing, credit limits, pay-on-account terms and a sales-rep ordering app for orders on the road.
Inventory & warehouse
Real-time stock across warehouses, branches and consignment, with lot and expiry tracking, stocktakes and multi-location transfers.
Purchasing & supply
Purchase orders, supplier management and replenishment, tuned for fast-moving wholesale and distribution.
Accounting & general ledger
A real GL underneath everything — chart of accounts, journals, trial balance, balance sheet and automatic posting. Run your books on Cognit, or sync two-way with Xero.
Invoicing & AR
Orders flow straight to invoices and the ledger the moment they land. AR, credit control and statements, all in one place.
Supplier rebates
Rebates and claim-backs calculated and claimed automatically — the money most distributors quietly lose in spreadsheets every month.
Reports & analytics
Live dashboards on sales, stock, margin and customers — real-time P&L and decisions based on today's numbers, not last month's.
Five systems, none talking
- ✕Re-keying the same order into three places
- ✕Website stock that's always slightly wrong
- ✕Month-end spent reconciling spreadsheets
- ✕Rebates and claim-backs quietly lost
- ✕Paying for five subscriptions that don't fit
One system, working as one
- ✓Enter an order once — it's everywhere
- ✓Live, accurate stock the store can't oversell
- ✓Books that post themselves as you trade
- ✓Rebates calculated and claimed automatically
- ✓One platform, one price, built to fit
AI that does the busywork.
Cognit doesn't just store your data — it works it. Reorder suggestions before you run out. Rebates that calculate themselves. Invoices that post automatically. The repetitive jobs just… happen.
Replace your ERP — or integrate with it
Keep the system you have and we'll integrate in real time — or we'll build you your own customised ERP to replace it — products, pricing, stock and orders in perfect sync either way.

Questions, answered
What is Cognit? +
Cognit is Zeabyte's all-in-one cloud ERP — it runs your entire business from one place: sales orders, a built-in B2B e-commerce online store, inventory and warehouse, purchasing, accounting and general ledger, invoicing, supplier rebates and full business reporting. Instead of stitching together separate systems, you run everything on Cognit.
How is Cognit different from a custom Zeabyte build? +
Cognit is the productised version of everything we used to build from scratch for each client — the ERP, the online store, the accounting, the AI — now packaged into one system you can start using in weeks from a simple monthly plan. If your operation needs something Cognit doesn't do out of the box, Zeabyte still builds custom modules and integrations around it.
Can Cognit replace my current accounting or ERP system? +
Yes. Cognit has a real general ledger underneath everything, so it can run your accounts on its own and replace a patchwork of separate systems. If you prefer to keep your accounting software, Cognit syncs two-way with Xero.
Who is Cognit for? +
Wholesalers, distributors, importers and product-based businesses that take orders, hold stock and want their website, inventory and accounts working as one system. It's already running real food and wholesale distribution businesses across New Zealand and Australia.
How much does Cognit cost? +
Three plans: Free ($0/month, forever) with a built-in online store and order management; Standard at NZD $499/month for the full operations ERP; and Premium at NZD $1,400/month adding accounting, general ledger, rebates and integrations. Standard and Premium include a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
