I am aware that you can exclude certain folders - but you have to name them. I need a view to show only the documents in the inbox, that doesn't need updating everytime we create a new folder.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It is not possible directly. There are no formulas that would help you build a select statement to get documents that are only in the Inbox. However, you could have an agent run on a scheduled basis (maybe every 5-10 minutes) that would update documents and flag them if they are in the inbox. Your view would then just need to select documents that have that flag set.
Updated As umeli pointed out, the flag needs to be unset when documents are moved out of the Inbox. Here's a modified script:
For example:
Dim s as New NotesSession
Dim db as NotesDatabase
Dim view as NotesView
Dim doc as NotesDocument
Dim allEntriesInbox as NotesViewEntryCollection
Dim allEntriesFlagged as NotesViewEntryCollection
Set s = New NotesSession
Set db = s.CurrentDatabase
Set view = db.GetView("($Inbox)")
Set viewFlagged = db.GetView("IsInInboxView")
Set allEntriesInbox = view.AllEntries
Set allEntriesFlagged = viewFlagged.AllEntries
allEntriesFlagged.StampAll("IsInInbox", "")
allEntriesInbox.StampAll("IsInInbox, "1")
Your view (named "IsInInboxView" in this example) should have a selection formula of IsInInbox = "1"
