How it sells itself

Sort Pilot helps Shopify merchants automatically organize collection product order using customizable sorting strategies and scheduled automation. Merchants can sort collections by inventory levels, value, product performance, and other merchandising signals without manually rearranging products inside Shopify admin.

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 Sorting by hand takes hours and is out of date by the next sale.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.

Key points
  • Automated collection sorting
  • Scheduled automation
  • Saved sorting strategies
  • 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
