How it sells itself

Every store has products that stopped selling but keep eating cash. Clearix scans your catalog, flags slow movers by comparing inventory to real sell-through, and shows exactly how much money is locked in dead stock. Then AI drafts a liquidation plan: the right discount per product, a rationale you can sanity-check, and ready-to-use campaign copy.

Losing money on products that sit unsold for months? IdleStock reads your catalog and recent orders and lists every product with stock but no sales in your chosen window (30 or 60 days): your dead stock, slow-moving and aging inventory. It shows how much cash is tied up in that excess stock and gives each item a clear next step: discount, bundle or remove. The first scan starts on its own after install.

Key points
  • See exactly how much cash is locked in products that stopped selling
  • AI suggests the right discount per product, with a rationale you can check
  • Apply any suggestion as a 14-day automatic discount in one click
  • Automatic dead stock detection with customizable day thresholds
  • Real-time capital analysis showing money tied in unsold products
  • Smart suggestions for each product: discount, bundle, or remove
