How it sells itself

Most operators run their store from spreadsheets rebuilt by hand each week. Keel HQ syncs your Shopify orders, products, inventory, and payouts automatically, then turns them into the numbers you decide on: sell-through by SKU, weeks of cover left, true margin after returns and shipping, and a rolling cash forecast that shows whether you can afford the next purchase order.

Stop guessing your margins. Scaliente syncs your Shopify orders with ad spend from Meta, Google, TikTok, Pinterest, and Snapchat — then deducts COGS, transaction fees, shipping, and expenses to show your true net profit. - Spot money-losing products. - Track ROAS per campaign. - One subscription covers all your shops - No per-store fees, no overage charges. - Automatic currency conversion.

Key points
  • Sell-through and weeks of cover per SKU, so you reorder before you stock out.
  • True margin after returns, discounts, and shipping, not just gross revenue.
  • Rolling cash forecast that shows what you can afford before you commit.
  • Real-time Net Profit Dashboard
  • Sync Meta, Google Ads, Pinterest, Tiktok Ads, Snapchat Spend
  • Track COGS & Shipping Costs
