How it sells itself

One slow mover can quietly tie up thousands in cash while your bestsellers run out. InventoryOwl syncs your orders and inventory nightly, then answers two questions: what needs reordering now, and what to discount. Reorder points and order quantities come from your actual sales velocity, lead times, and safety stock. Slow movers and dead stock are flagged with the cash tied up in each and a suggested markdown.

InventoryIntel analyses sales history, stock movement and market signals to identify recovery opportunities across both slow-moving inventory and stockout-risk items. It provides inventory recovery recommendations, including markdowns, bundles, recovery campaigns and marketplace routing, based on observed inventory and market conditions.

Key points
  • Reorder points and order quantities from your real sales velocity
  • Slow-mover and dead-stock flags with cash tied up and discount suggestions
  • Weekly email digest of what to reorder and what to discount
  • Per-vendor lead times, minimum orders, and case-pack rounding
  • Ranks slow-moving and stockout-risk SKUs with market signals
  • Recommends markdowns, bundles, campaigns and marketplace routing
  • Launches discount campaigns and tags clearance products automatically
  • Shows recovery dashboards, alerts and campaign performance
