See every featureGhost Stock is an inventory health app for Shopify stores. It scans your inventory data, gives you a clear health score and highlights issues that may need attention. Identify problems such as negative inventory, duplicate or missing SKUs, disabled inventory tracking and potential ghost stock. Review your findings in one place and use scan history to track how your inventory health changes over time.
Do stock takes the way stores actually do them. Quick Count is for spot checks — ShelfCount is for the real thing: full-store and cycle counts. Count the whole location, a collection, hand-picked products, or a vendor/type/tag. Scan on any phone via a PIN link — no POS needed — or on Shopify POS (POS Pro); multiple staff, blind counts optional.
