Loupe

What Loupe does

Loupe (legal entity Loupe US Corp, a Delaware corporation) is an AI-native ERP platform purpose-built for the jewelry, watch, and loose stone industries. The platform unifies product lifecycle management, inventory, financial controls, digital asset management, and AI-powered capabilities into a single system, with 80% of industry data pre-loaded and validated at launch. Core technology includes a cloud-based SaaS architecture, a real-time permutation pricing engine, an API-first configurator that serves dynamic prices on any front end, free out-of-the-box EDI integration directly into the master database, and zero-cost integration with leading 3D/CAD providers, Sage, and QuickBooks. Contextual AI agents with deep context windows operate across text, image, and structured data modalities, powered exclusively by Google and Anthropic foundation models under contractual commitments that customer data is not used for model training.

The company operates a hybrid go-to-market combining enterprise field sales (Book a Demo, Order Form subscriptions with multi-year terms and 3-20% annual escalators) with a self-service subscription portal for smaller operators, plus a networked ERP model that allows trading partners to collaborate within the ecosystem. Revenue is generated through SaaS subscriptions (self-service monthly/annual and enterprise Order Form) and professional services (implementation, configuration, consulting, training). Customer segments span jewelry manufacturers, jewelry retailers, watch retailers and brands, loose stone dealers, and multi-national jewelry organizations requiring multi-division management with geographical firewalls. The founder, Dominic Hill, leads the company as CEO with over 25 years of jewelry industry experience across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Operational scale signals include 133,746 SKUs born on the platform and $12.5 billion in cumulative purchase order value processed, supported by 5 consecutive years of ISO27001 certification audited by KPMG.

Direct peers

• Acumen Jewelry ERP: Acumen provides jewelry-specific ERP and inventory software for retailers and wholesalers, competing directly with Loupe in the same vertical workflow niche.
• JDM Software: JDM (Jewelers Data Management) offers ERP and POS systems built for the jewelry industry, providing direct vertical competition across similar use cases including inventory and pricing.
• Auros (Jewelry ERP): Auros is a vertical ERP/inventory management platform built specifically for jewelry retailers, manufacturers, and wholesalers. It is the closest direct peer to Loupe in purpose-built jewelry business software.

Emerging players

• Gemfind: Gemfind provides jewelry-focused digital marketing, e-commerce, and product feed tools serving the same retail jewelers and manufacturers as Loupe, though focused on the marketing/commerce layer rather than back-office ERP.
• Lightspeed Retail: Lightspeed is a retail POS/inventory platform with growing jewelry vertical penetration. It competes for the same retail jewelry customer but is a horizontal retail platform rather than jewelry-native.

Others

• Stuller: Stuller is a major jewelry manufacturer and supplier with proprietary production and ordering software that competes for workflow ownership within its customer base; adjacent rather than head-to-head ERP competition.

Broad incumbents

• Sage Intacct / Sage X3: Sage is both a technology partner of Loupe (accounting integration) and a broad incumbent in financial/ERP software serving some of the same multi-national customers.
• SAP Business One: SAP is the horizontal ERP incumbent that Loupe explicitly positions against. SAP's customization overhead in jewelry workflows is a core pain point in Loupe's go-to-market narrative.
• Oracle NetSuite: Oracle NetSuite is a major cloud ERP broadly used by mid-market and enterprise customers including some jewelry organizations; represents the generic-ERP incumbent threat.
• Microsoft Dynamics 365: Microsoft Dynamics competes for the same enterprise ERP wallet share and is increasingly embedding AI capabilities that could narrow Loupe's vertical-AI differentiation over time.
