Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featurePlumb turns the whole-store stocktake into a daily task. It picks what is worth counting — ranked by 90 days of sales, so busy products come round often and the slow tail rarely — and hands staff a short list on POS or in the admin. Counting happens while you trade: a sale landing mid-count is refused rather than overwritten, and nothing reaches your inventory until you approve it. One click puts it back.

Stock Pigeon prevents costly stockouts with advanced 90-day demand forecasting and instant alerts via Slack, email, and in-app. Track inventory value, profit margins, and sales velocity to maximize ROI.
