How it sells itself

FreshGuard AI is your complete solution for batch traceability and expiry date management. Stop losing money to expired inventory. Our app automatically tracks product batches, alerts you before stock expires, and allocates oldest items first (FEFO). With our automated discounting, you can auto-apply discounts to expiring batches to move inventory fast. Generate compliance recall reports instantly.

Still tracking batches in a spreadsheet? Save it as a CSV and upload it. Lotwise matches your columns, shows you exactly what it will create, and saves nothing until you confirm. No retyping, and nobody to email. From then on, every batch carries its lot number and expiry date. As stock sells, Lotwise depletes the right batch using FEFO, first expired first out, or FIFO if you prefer.

Key points
  • Track inventory by batches with expiration dates and locations.
  • Automate FEFO allocation to sell oldest expiring stock first.
  • Auto-apply tiered discounts to stock nearing expiration.
  • Get daily dashboard alerts for batches expiring within 30 days.
  • Track batch and lot numbers with expiry dates at every location
  • Automatic FEFO or FIFO depletion as your Shopify inventory moves
  • Expired and expiring-soon alerts on one dashboard, warning window you set
