Indema vs. Gather —
Full Studio OS vs.
Sourcing-Only
What Gather Does — And Where It Stops.
Gather is purpose-built for product discovery and sourcing. That's genuinely useful. But a design firm needs more than a sourcing tool.
Gather is a sourcing tool, not a studio OS
Gather does one thing well: helping you find and organize products. But after you source, you still need to create POs, track delivery, invoice clients, manage project phases, and reconcile with your accountant — all in separate tools.
More tools means more gaps + stress.
If Gather is your sourcing tool, you still need a project management tool, a procurement tracker, an invoicing tool, and an accounting integration. Each gap is a place where data gets lost, time gets wasted, and margin leaks out.
Indema includes everything.
Indema's built-in product sourcing clipper works from any URL, feeding directly into your procurement workflow, POs, and accounting. You don't give anything up — you gain everything around it.
