Add a theme app block to product pages, collect shopper emails for unavailable variants, sync inventory, and send back-in-stock alerts after items return. Inside Shopify admin, merchants can track open waitlists, out-of-stock variants, recent signups, and alert activity from one focused workspace.

Rota Sortis gives Shopify merchants a revenue recovery ecosystem for missed product demand. Capture interest when items are sold out, unavailable, or launching soon with waitlists and preorders. Bring shoppers back with restock emails from Email Studio, improve offers with bundles and discounts, and track demand, recovered revenue, and product activity from one guided workspace.
