How it sells itself

Proviand reads your sales history and suggests what to reorder, when, and in what quantity. Every suggestion explains itself: sales velocity, seasonality, supplier lead time, and safety stock. Turn suggestions into purchase orders grouped by supplier, email them to suppliers, and receive deliveries straight into Shopify inventory. Migrating from Stocky? Import your purchase order history and suppliers from CSV.

Running out of a bestseller costs you sales. Ordering too much ties up cash. This app watches your sales, learns how fast each variant moves, and tells you what to order today. Every recommendation shows its reasoning in plain language, so you can judge it yourself. When you are ready, it groups items by supplier and creates a purchase order.

Key points
  • Buying table: reorder suggestions with quantities, sorted by stockout date
  • Explainable forecasts: velocity, seasonality and lead time behind every number
  • Purchase orders: create from forecasts, email suppliers, receive into Shopify
  • Morning email digest plus stockout and low stock alerts by email or Slack
  • See what to reorder today, with the reasoning behind every recommendation
  • Purchase orders that follow local business conventions, not just translations
  • Receiving updates Shopify inventory, with safeguards against double-counting
  • Lead times learn from your actual supplier deliveries

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
