Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureWhen a product sells out, most interested shoppers leave and never come back. Dibs adds a customisable 'Notify me' button to your sold-out products so those shoppers can leave their email & be alerted the moment you restock. Before each alert is sent, Dibs checks live inventory across your locations, so customers are never sent to a page that has already sold out again.
Restock adds a notify me button to sold-out products and emails those shoppers when stock returns. Alerts are size aware, so someone waiting on a medium hears about mediums. Your waitlist then becomes a reorder plan. Restock ranks products by demand, shows how it splits across sizes, and writes an AI summary of what to restock first and how many units. You control how much stock must return before anyone is emailed.
