How it sells itself

Most Shopify stores have a significant portion of inventory value sitting in products that have not sold in 60+ days. That capital is locked up, taking shelf space, and quietly losing value. Shelfie automatically surfaces this dead stock, suggests one-click recovery actions, and tracks how much each action recovers — so you can clear aging inventory with confidence and measurable ROI.

SKUcue helps merchants review inventory work inside the admin. It scans products, variants, inventory levels, and recent orders to create a focused task inbox for low stock, dead stock, slow movers, and missing product costs. Merchants can run scans, review recommended actions, export task lists, and keep a lightweight weekly inventory workflow without spreadsheets.

Key points
  • Aging-based risk scoring (Healthy / Warning / Danger / Dead) on every product
  • Rules engine — target by vendor, collection, tag, SKU prefix, or product type
  • Bulk apply and revert with confirm breakdown — full action history per product
  • Find low stock and stockout risk before products run out
  • Spot dead stock and slow movers using recent order activity
  • Identify products with missing costs before margin reports break
  • Review inventory tasks inside the admin
