How it sells itself

Inventory Genius forecasts demand for every product and tells you what to reorder, when, and from which supplier. It reads sales velocity, supplier lead times, and seasonal patterns, then turns reorder suggestions into purchase orders in one click, grouped by supplier. Manage stock across all locations with replenishment planning, transfers, PO receiving, and stocktakes on desktop, mobile, and Shopify POS.

Never miss a sale due to stockouts. StockIQ monitors your inventory in real time, predicts when products will run out using weighted sales velocity analysis, and tells you exactly how much to reorder. Get instant alerts for critical stock levels, manage purchase orders end-to-end with a built-in supplier portal, track the revenue impact of stockouts, and classify inventory using ABC analysis.

Key points
  • Seasonal demand forecasting with trend detection to plan inventory confidently.
  • Auto-generate purchase orders based on sales velocity and supplier lead times
  • Multi-location inventory tracking with location-level metrics and reorder points
  • ABC categorization to prioritize high-value products and optimize stock levels.
  • Sales velocity forecasting with stockout predictions and smart order suggestion
  • Automatic stock alerts with urgency levels for critical and out-of-stock items
  • Full purchase order workflow with supplier portal, receiving, and inventory sync
  • ABC inventory classification and dead stock detection to free up capital
