Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSee what to reorder next, and what's already tying up cash. apples reads your products, inventory and sales history to show how fast each product — and each size — actually sells, how many days of stock you hold, and how much cash sits in items that aren't moving. It then suggests reorder quantities that account for lead time, seasonality and markdown risk, and helps you allocate your buy budget across categories.
InventoryIQ turns your Shopify orders, inventory levels, and cash position into prioritized buying decisions you can defend in a board meeting. Instead of stockout-date alerts, you get reorder recommendations ranked by ROI under your actual cash runway. Forecasts respect seasonality, ad spend, and changes — and every projection is auditable. Approve a reorder, and we generate the PO.
