See every featureForeshelf forecasts demand from your sales history and tells you what to reorder, how much, and when — with the reasoning shown: "Sells 5/day, 12 days left, 14-day lead time → reorder 90 now." Forecasts adjust for trend and seasonality. Reorder by supplier, raise purchase orders, receive by barcode, get email or Slack alerts, and track dead stock, turnover and sell-through.
Purchase orders, demand forecasting, 100+ reports and low stock alerts in one app. Forecasts learn each product's seasonality from 2 years of daily history and track their own accuracy, so reorder points reflect real demand.

How Shoplist compares apps

Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
