See every featureForecaster helps you know exactly when and how much to reorder. Using historical and seasonal sales data, it recommends reorder quantities by SKU, so you can restock the correct products, sizes, and colors without guessing. It also sends daily email alerts when products are trending toward out-of-stock and shows you the estimated revenue lost per day if they sell out.
Forecastify uses weighted sales analysis to predict when products will stock out — recent sales count more than old ones. Every SKU gets a risk level, trend direction, and velocity score so you know exactly where to focus. The dashboard surfaces action items, an inventory health score, and a color-coded heatmap for scanning hundreds of products at a glance.
