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.

Stockbeam forecasts demand, shows what to reorder and why, builds one purchase order per supplier, sends it, and receives the delivery in full or in parts, at the till too. Price POs in the supplier's currency, add landed cost, check invoices and credit notes, and switch on approvals if you want them. Shopify stock changes only when you confirm.

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
  • Reorder points from real sales velocity, lead times and safety stock
  • One-click purchase orders per supplier, ready to email or print
  • Receive full or partial deliveries; Shopify inventory updates instantly
  • Reorder suggestions with the reasoning shown on every number

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 for Proviand, Oct 22, 2026 for Stockbeam. 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.
