Firearms retail counter representing a licensed dealer's workspace

Everything your FFL needs

One login. One workflow. One platform.

FFL Elite helps you get your Federal Firearms License — and then run it. Academy guides you to approval. Suite runs the licensed business that comes after.

Suite: 14-day free trial, no credit card required. Academy: 30-day money-back guarantee.

Choose your path

Two products. One clear answer to where you belong.

Not licensed yet? Start with Academy. Already holding a license? Start with Suite. Most dealers eventually use both.

Not licensed yet

FFL Elite Academy

A guided path from "I'm thinking about it" to an approved Federal Firearms License — organized around your state, your county and the license type you actually need.

  • Requirements tailored to your state and county
  • ATF paperwork prepared from your profile
  • ATF interview preparation and mock interview
  • Post-approval compliance training
Already licensed

FFL Elite Suite

Not another digital bound book. A complete operating platform for Federal Firearms Licensees — compliance, transfers and the business side of the shop in one place.

  • Digital bound book — append-only, unlimited records
  • Native electronic 4473 with buyer self-service
  • Background-check workflow with follow-up assistance
  • Compliance Center, RecordSync and Dealer Operations

How the platform is built

Three layers, one system of record.

Regulatory records stay authoritative and append-only. Everything else references them — nothing rewrites them.

Foundation

Bound book, 4473s and background-check workflow — the authoritative regulatory record, append-only and fully auditable.

Intelligence

Compliance Center self-assessment, RecordSync reconciliation and an advisory AI Assistant grounded in your own records.

Operations

Purchase orders, receiving, inventory economics, customers and tasks — connected to your records without ever altering them.

Already using something else

Switching should not put your records at risk.

Import from FastBound, FFL Boss, Orchid, Gun Store Master or a spreadsheet. Every row is previewed and approved before it becomes part of your bound book.

Read the guides

An advisor that reads your records — and never decides for you.

FFL Advisor answers questions in plain language, grounded in your own workspace data. It is advisory only: it explains, surfaces and drafts, but every regulatory decision stays with you.
