Editions and customization
The right edition.
Room for your way of working.
Datum's architecture supports multiple editions and customizations where needed. Start with the one that fits your operation, then shape it with configuration & settings your team controls. Where the work needs more than configuration can reach, we develop custom modules — and patterns that recur become new editions.
Choose your starting point.
Choose Standard for connected everyday operations, Millwork for specialist production workflows, or Finance for consolidation and reporting across multiple companies and currencies. Each edition shapes the same Datum foundation around the work it serves.
- One shared core underneath
- Workflows suited to your operation
- The same security model everywhere
- Dot intelligence in every edition
Specialist depth, without one-off software.
Editions and configuration cover most specialist work. Where they genuinely fall short, we develop company-specific modules — and recurring patterns become new editions.

Common questions.
What is Datum?
Datum is an operations-first, AI-native ERP for growing businesses. It delivers the breadth of an ERP without the complexity and implementation burden traditionally associated with ERPs. Sales, purchasing, inventory, projects, manufacturing, accounting, and cash flow run in one intuitive workspace.
Who is Datum for?
Datum is designed for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and disconnected tools, and need operations, accounting, and decision-making to work from the same information. It suits teams that want clearer control over purchasing, inventory, projects, production, accounting, and financial reporting without losing the context behind the work. The fit is a growing business that wants broad ERP coverage without a traditional ERP implementation.
How is Datum different from a traditional ERP?
Datum delivers the breadth of an ERP without the complexity and implementation burden traditionally associated with ERPs. Work stays connected from sales and purchasing through inventory, projects, production, and accounting, in a workspace built to be intuitive in daily use rather than weighed down by modules and screens most businesses never use. It is not an enterprise-heavy ERP, not a lengthy consulting-led implementation, not an accounting-first system, not a narrow point solution, and not an AI chatbot added to a legacy ERP.
How long does it take to implement Datum?
Less time than a traditional ERP rollout. Configuration comes before custom development, so most setup is roles, approvals, and settings rather than code. Imports and onboarding are Dot-assisted. Dot cleans up and maps data from CSVs, PDFs, and existing tools which shortens the move. Go-live timing depends on the edition, your data, integrations, and any custom work.
Does Datum replace QuickBooks or Xero?
It can, but it does not have to. Datum has its own accounting built in. You can also keep QuickBooks Online or Xero as your books and connect them. Either way, the work behind each figure stays in Datum.
How does AI work in Datum?
Dot is the AI built into Datum. It answers questions from your own records, within the same permissions as the person asking, and proposes the next step. Anything consequential waits for your confirmation before it is applied.
