How it sells itself

Restock & Inventory Manager helps you stop guessing when to reorder. It tracks sales for every product and calculates a rolling sales velocity to predict the date each item will run out of stock. Clear status badges show what is healthy, on watch, due to reorder, or stocked out. When stock runs low, the app emails you so you can act before you lose a sale.

When a product goes out of stock, most inventory tools still count those zero-sale days in their averages. That means your next reorder is based on deflated numbers — so you under-order, stock out again, and the cycle repeats. TrueVelocity breaks that cycle. Our engine strips out stockout days and outlier orders to calculate your real sales velocity.

Key points
  • Forecast stockout dates from your real sales history and velocity.
  • Low stock and reorder email alerts, daily or in real time.
  • Purchase orders generated from your reorder list, with CSV and PDF.
  • Email purchase orders to suppliers and track their lead times.
  • Filters out stockout days and outlier orders to calculate real sales velocity.
  • Revenue at Risk dashboard shows exactly how much you're losing to low stock.
  • Generate reorder lists and share them with your supplier via a single link.
  • Get daily restock alerts via email or Telegram — with exact reorder quantities.
