Software Solutions for Smart Lighting Sellers
Smart lighting is cheap per unit and sold in multiples. A buyer needs the right cap or fitting, a colour range that suits the room and a bridge or hub if the bulbs need one. Sellers also supply builders and designers who order lighting for whole homes, so project quotes matter as much as baskets.
Sell bulbs, strips and switches by cap type, colour range and room.
A bulb that screws into the wrong socket is a return. The catalogue has to ask for the cap type early, then hide everything that does not fit.
Lighting brands online
This brand lists bulbs, strips and switches in packs, with starter kits that include the bridge.
Lighting shops with a web range
A shop lists its fittings online and takes orders for homes it will not visit.
Suppliers to builders and designers
A supplier quotes lighting by room for a flat or a house, with deliveries timed to the site.
The workflow for smart lighting.
- 1
Choosing the fitting
The buyer selects the cap type, the wattage range and whether the bulb is dimmable. The catalogue narrows to matching products.
- 2
Picking colour and control
Warm, cool and full-colour options are compared, along with how each is controlled: an app, a switch or a voice assistant.
- 3
Packs and room kits
Bulbs are sold singly, in packs of four or ten, or as a kit for one room with the controller included.
- 4
Project quote
A builder lists rooms and fittings, receives a quote with trade rates and confirms delivery dates for each phase.
- 5
Dispatch and replacement
A dead bulb in a pack is replaced against the order without returning the whole set.
The challenges, and what they cost.
What is specific to this trade.
These are requirements we would confirm in discovery. They describe what the solution may need to handle. They are not features that already exist.
- Cap type, wattage and dimming as filters on every bulb
- Packs and single units counted against one stock
- Room-wise quotes with revision history for projects
What we would build for smart lighting.
Chosen from the commerce capabilities this business needs, not a list of everything.
Who works in the system, and what each can do.
What it would connect to.
An integration is confirmed only after its API, access and scope are checked. A connection that updates on a schedule is described as scheduled, not real-time.
- Showroom stock, refreshed at agreed intervals so a till sale shows up online
- Card and UPI payments through your own provider account
- A courier able to carry boxes of glass items, added after its interface is reviewed
How the work runs, and what we need from you.

Fix the filter list

A past builder project is rebuilt as a quote to test the room-wise flow.
What you receive.
- Fitting and colour filters
- Pack and unit stock rules
- A room-wise quotation flow
How progress is judged.
Measures are agreed against your own baseline. We do not promise a result in advance.
- Returns caused by a wrong fitting
- Project quotes revised more than twice
Selling at home and abroad.
Cap types and mains voltage differ between countries, so bulb variants are held per market. Buyers abroad may need a different cap or driver, and the filter hides what cannot be fitted.

Configured implementation
Storefront, installation booking and plan renewals sit on whichever platform discovery selects, and each is configured for the seller. No existing GullySystem product covers the whole sale, so each flow is set up for the individual seller.
Compatibility fields, kits and trade quotes are within the category solution; pack counting is stock configuration.

Questions about smart lighting e-commerce.
Can the site hide bulbs that do not fit my socket?
Yes, once cap type is held for each product. The buyer picks a fitting first and the list narrows.
Do bulbs work with any hub?
That depends on the radio type the maker uses. The catalogue shows supported hubs from your data and does not test them.
Can builders get their own prices?
Yes. A builder signs in and sees trade rates and quotes, and other buyers see the standard price.
