How it sells itself

Stocky is no longer available after August 31, 2026. Inventory Guard picks up the part most merchants used it for: knowing when to reorder. It turns your real order history into a demand forecast per product, using sales trends and weekday patterns. Each reorder point covers demand over the supplier lead time, plus safety stock for your demand swings.

RestockRadar forecasts when each product and variant will run out, and how much to reorder - from your real sales velocity, supplier lead time, and a service-level target. Every recommendation shows its math: lead-time demand plus safety stock, explained . Get email alerts when stock crosses its reorder point.

Key points
  • Demand forecast per product, built from your real order history
  • Reorder points that account for supplier lead time and demand swings
  • Products ranked by urgency with a plain-language reorder plan
  • Forecast days until stockout for every product and variant
  • Reorder quantity with safety stock -the math shown, never a guess
  • Email alerts the moment stock crosses your reorder point
  • Set lead time and service level per product, not one-size-fits-all
