How it sells itself

Stockcast checks your Shopify inventory daily and forecasts when each variant will run out. Every reorder suggestion shows its math: sales velocity, supplier lead time, safety stock, reorder point and order-by date. Turn suggestions into purchase orders by supplier, email them as PDFs and receive stock back into Shopify. Moving off Stocky?

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. Raise a purchase order from a reorder pick, receive stock and track landed cost. Run a health check across every product.

Key points
  • Reorder suggestions with the math — velocity, lead time, and order-by date
  • Stocky migration — import your PO CSVs and auto-rebuild supplier list
  • Stockout predictions ranked by urgency with critical-first dashboard alerts
  • Dead stock detection finds products tying up capital that no longer sell
  • Demand forecasting that excludes out-of-stock days for accurate velocity
  • 11 report types: ABC analysis, dead stock, margins, reorder & more
  • Schedule reports to email or Slack as CSV or PDF on any cadence
  • Low stock, stockout & overstock alerts via Slack and email

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.
