Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureManual collection sorting can hide best sellers and create extra merchandising work. ShelfUp automatically organise manual collections using sales, inventory, product views, add-to-carts, and custom merchandising rules. Preview changes before they go live, understand every product movement, and roll back previous sorts when needed. Schedule updates to keep collections fresh and aligned with shopper demand.
Most shoppers only see the first rows of a collection. Too often that's where sold-out items and slow sellers sit, while bestsellers and new arrivals are buried further down. Sorting by hand takes hours and is out of date by the next sale. SortWise re-sorts your collections every hour using real sales, views, and inventory, so the right products always lead.
- Sort manual collections by sales, inventory, views, and carts.
- Preview product rankings before publishing a live sort.
- Track collection health, conflicts, movement, and rollback.
- Create rules to automatically feature, boost, bury, or remove products.
- Featured Products: pin & drag-and-drop featured products
- Collection Analytics: track performance and get insights into your collections
- AI-driven strategy: use multiple merchandising strategies, including AI
- Optimized Results: Automatically moves sold-out items down
