How it sells itself

BuyPlanr is inventory management and purchase order software for Shopify. Forecast what to reorder, when to order, and how much using sales history, stock, incoming inventory, supplier lead times, target coverage, and seasonality. Create and send POs, track deliveries, and receive partial or complete shipments.

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
  • Forecast demand from sales, stock, lead times, seasonality and more
  • Reorder recommendations with quantities and order-by dates
  • Purchase orders with suppliers, costs, incoming stock, and ETAs
  • Receiving Inbox for email from external warehouse with order delivered file
  • Turn low stock into ready-to-send purchase orders
  • Forecast what to reorder before shelves run empty
  • Track receiving, transfers, counts, and stock value

Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads. Read the methodology.
