How it sells itself

A bundle sold, but a component was already out of stock. Shopify's bundle availability ignores components that are untracked or set to continue selling. BundleGuard scans every Shopify bundle and any kit you map yourself, shows how many are buildable, forecasts when each runs out and what to reorder, shows the revenue at risk, and alerts you by email, Slack or Shopify Flow.

One low component can stop several kits or gift sets at once. Needly Bundle Stock Alerts watches recipes and component inventory, then warns before capacity reaches zero. Import native Shopify Bundles or map a custom kit. See bundles available, the limiting component, every affected bundle, and the exact restock quantity.

Key points
  • See true buildable stock for every fixed bundle
  • Flags untracked and continue-selling components — the silent oversell holes
  • Alerts when a component stockout makes a bundle unfulfillable
  • Detects drift between bundle and component availability
  • Map each bundle or kit to up to 100 inventory-tracked components.
  • See Healthy, At Risk, and Broken status from aggregate inventory.
  • Set a separate low-stock threshold for every mapped bundle.
  • Identify the lowest, unavailable, or untracked component.
