How it sells itself

Shopify shows your inventory levels — what you have. Restock tells you what to do about it: which products are running low, how many units to order, and when — ranked by urgency, with the projected revenue at risk if you wait. It's not another dashboard to interpret — Restock does the math the way you would on paper, so every recommendation is one you can verify.

Skubird tells you exactly what to order, how much and when, with a 90% confidence range from your sales data. Forget dashboards and spreadsheets: you get a finished reorder list ranked by urgency, with a dollar-value risk estimate for any item you delay. Per-vendor and per-SKU lead times adapt to your real supply chain. Free for up to 25 SKUs, no card required. Paid plans start at $49/month with a 30-day trial.

Key points
  • See the revenue at risk if you don't restock in time
  • Every SKU ranked by stockout risk, with a clear reorder-now flag
  • Suggested reorder quantity that fits your lead time and safety stock
  • Reorder-alert emails: a daily or weekly digest of what to reorder
  • Reorder recommendations with specific quantities and order-by dates
  • Every forecast includes by a confidence range from your sales data
  • Email notifications sorted by urgency
  • Dollar-value risk estimates for delayed reorders
