Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureUnsold products are cash sitting on a shelf. Inventory Autopilot finds dead and slow-moving stock (60/90/120-day thresholds you control), applies tiered clearance discounts you approve in one click, and sells them through an automatic Clearance section that matches your theme. Prices restore when items recover. Works on large catalogs. A weekly digest shows the cash you've recovered.
Smart Clearance Manager automatically discounts products that haven't sold in a while, so you can clear dead stock without lifting a finger. Set your own rules — choose how many days without a sale triggers a markdown, how deep the discount goes, and a price floor so you never sell below cost.
