Silai App for Your Shop — Naap to Bill, on One Phone

Every silai shop runs on four things: the customer's naap, the pieces currently being cut and stitched, what the karigar has done, and the hisaab at the end of it. Most shops keep all four in different places — a register, a diary, a slip in the pocket, and memory. A silai app keeps them in one place, joined, so that saving a naap starts the order and closing the order writes the bill.

The Four Registers

What a Silai App Actually Holds

Not new work — the same four registers your shop already keeps, joined together instead of scattered.

📐

Naap

Every measurement, dated, against the customer's name — not a page number you have to find.

✂

Silai ka kaam

What is cut, what is on the machine, what is finished, what is due tomorrow.

👤

Karigar

Who was given which piece, what they finished, what that adds up to at month end.

💰

Bahi-khata

Advance taken, balance pending, and a proper GST bill when the customer asks.

Naap

The Naap Register, on Your Phone

A naap register works until the day it does not: the page is torn, the ink has run, the customer is standing in front of you and the numbers were taken eight months ago by somebody who has since left. Then the whole thing is measured again, the customer waits, and the shop looks careless for a reason that has nothing to do with skill.

In the app, every naap sits against the customer's name and phone number. Take it once and it is there for the next order, and the one after that. Take it again next year and the old set stays — both are dated, so you can see what changed rather than guessing which is right.

Separate fields exist for blouse, kurti, salwar, shirt and pant, so nobody has to remember the order the numbers were written in. And because the naap is attached to the customer rather than to a page, any person at the counter can pull it up — the shop stops depending on whoever wrote it.

Silai Ka Kaam

What Is Cut, What Is Stitched, What Is Due

The question that costs the most in a silai shop is the simplest one: which pieces have to go out tomorrow? A diary answers it only if somebody wrote the date down and nobody tore the page.

Every order in the app carries its delivery date from the moment it is taken. One screen shows what is due tomorrow, what is due this week, and what has quietly gone past its date — which is the list most shops discover only when the customer phones.

Each piece moves through cutting, stitching and finishing, and is marked as it goes. So "almost ready" becomes a specific answer: cut and stitched, finishing left. During festival season, when fifty pieces are in the shop at once, that is the difference between a shop that delivers and a shop that apologises.

Karigar

Who Did What, and What They Are Owed

Most silai shops pay karigars per piece rather than a monthly salary, which is fair to both sides — but only if the count is right. Counted from memory at month end, somebody always loses, and it is usually the same person twice.

Give each karigar their own login and they see only the pieces assigned to them. They mark work complete as they finish it. The count builds itself through the month, so the figure at the end is a total to be read rather than a calculation to be argued over.

They do not see your rates, your customer list or your accounts — only their own work. That is usually the reason a shop is willing to put staff on the system at all.

Bahi-Khata

Advance, Balance, and a Proper Bill

Money in a silai shop moves in two halves — something at order, the rest at delivery. Kept in a separate book, the two halves drift apart, and the disagreement always surfaces at the counter with the customer listening.

Here the advance stays on the order. The pending balance is on the screen when the customer arrives to collect, without anybody turning pages. And when a school, a uniform buyer or a company asks for a GST bill, it comes from the same record — the price quoted when the order was taken is the price on the bill unless somebody deliberately changed it.

The bill goes to the customer on WhatsApp in one tap, which is also the cheapest reminder there is for a balance that has not been cleared.

Starting Out

Starting Without Stopping the Shop

Keep the register. Nothing has to be copied in one sitting. Enter each customer as they come back for their next order, and within a few weeks the app has filled itself while the register sits on the shelf as a backup.

It is mostly tapping, not typing. Choose the customer, choose the garment, enter the naap numbers. Names and notes can be typed in whatever language your phone keyboard has.

It works on the phone in your pocket. Any Android phone, and the same account opens on a computer when you want a bigger screen for the month's figures. Nothing to install on a computer, nothing to maintain.

The Basic plan is free permanently — not a trial that expires. It covers 10 customers, 20 orders a month and one login, which is enough for a shop finding its feet. Paid plans lift those limits when the work outgrows them; see pricing.

FAQ

Silai App — Common Questions

It holds on a phone what a silai shop currently keeps on paper: each customer's naap, the pieces cut and stitched and still pending, the bill with its advance and balance, and what each karigar has earned. Because those records are joined, saving a naap starts an order and closing an order produces the bill.
Yes. Juvee's Basic plan is free permanently rather than a trial, and includes naap records, order tracking, GST billing and fabric stock — capped at 10 customers, 20 orders a month and one login. Paid plans lift those caps when the shop outgrows them.
The app is used mostly by tapping rather than typing — choose the customer, choose the garment, enter the naap numbers. Customer names and notes can be entered in any language your phone keyboard supports, including Hindi and Tamil.
Yes, and most shops do at first. Nothing needs to be copied in one sitting. Enter each customer as they return for their next order and the app fills itself over a few weeks, while the register stays on the shelf as a backup.
Each karigar gets their own login and sees only the pieces given to them, which they mark complete as they finish. Piece-rate work adds up automatically against their name, so the month-end figure is a total rather than a calculation.
Nothing, in the product — Juvee is one app. The two words are simply what different shops call the same work, so we keep a page in each vocabulary rather than making anybody read the other one. See tailor app.
