How it sells itself

Potato is the simple, yet powerful inventory restocking software we always wish we had as Shopify store owners ourselves. You can get insights on how much you should reorder and generate purchase order drafts automatically, with a click of a button. When inventory arrives and you update Shopify, Potato reconciles it against your POs—no double data entry or using some external system to update inventory.

Restocky helps merchants plan, order, receive, and count stock from one inventory workspace. It uses sales history and stock levels to suggest reorder quantities, then turns those suggestions into purchase orders. Merchants can track suppliers, receive incoming stock, move inventory between locations, run stocktakes, and review inventory, velocity, and profit reports.

Key points
  • Reorder Insights - Know how much to reorder based on historical sales
  • Automate Purchase Orders - Generate POs for best-sellers with 1 click
  • Inventory Auto-Match - Update your inventory in Shopify, auto-matches to a PO
  • Turn low stock into ready-to-send purchase orders
  • Forecast what to reorder before shelves run empty
  • Track receiving, transfers, counts, and stock value
