How it sells itself

BrightStock updates your inventory on the schedule you choose. Create a one-time restock or auto-repeat it every few days, weeks, months, or years. Set an exact quantity or increase existing stock, with a separate action and location for each item in a multi-product schedule. Run a restock early when plans change, then review item-level results in Restock History.

Restocky helps merchants plan, order, receive, and count stock from one inventory workspace. It uses sales history and stock levels to suggest reorder quantities, then turns those suggestions into purchase orders. Merchants can track suppliers, receive incoming stock, move inventory between locations, run stocktakes, and review inventory, velocity, and profit reports.

Key points
  • One-time or recurring restocks, all in a few clicks.
  • Restock with fixed counts or adjust existing stock.
  • Schedule for auto-restock on specific days, and at a specific time.
  • Update or cancel one-time and recurring restocks easily.
  • Turn low stock into ready-to-send purchase orders
  • Forecast what to reorder before shelves run empty
  • Track receiving, transfers, counts, and stock value
