How it sells itself

Sell gift sets or kits and nothing knows what's inside them. A component runs out, the bundle stays on sale, and you ship what you no longer have. Knit links each bundle's availability to the real stock of its components, both ways — no product, variant or bundle created, and your cart function stays free.

One low component can stop several kits or gift sets at once. Needly Bundle Stock Alerts watches recipes and component inventory, then warns before capacity reaches zero. Import native Shopify Bundles or map a custom kit. See bundles available, the limiting component, every affected bundle, and the exact restock quantity.

Key points
  • Bundle availability follows the real stock of its components, both ways
  • No product, variant or bundle created on your store
  • Leaves your cart transform function free for your discounts
  • Watches your sales for several days before it writes anything
  • Map each bundle or kit to up to 100 inventory-tracked components.
  • See Healthy, At Risk, and Broken status from aggregate inventory.
  • Set a separate low-stock threshold for every mapped bundle.
  • Identify the lowest, unavailable, or untracked component.
