How it sells itself

StockFlow helps merchants automatically manage out-of-stock products without manual work. When inventory reaches zero, products are removed from collections and search results while their URLs remain active to avoid broken links. When restocked, products are instantly restored.

Customer attention is the lifeblood of your business. Don't waste that precious resource by showing customers pages of sold out products or by scrounging for back-in-stock emails on products that are never going to be replenished. Take a different approach. Use ZeroOut to hide out-of-stock products, strategically collect back-in-stock emails, and ensure you always have inventory to make the sale.

Key points
  • Automatically hide out-of-stock products from collections and search
  • Instantly restore products when inventory is back in stock
  • Capture demand with back-in-stock email notifications
  • SEO-safe mode keeps product URLs active and avoids broken links
  • Hide out of stock products so customers don't see what they can't buy
  • Collect back-in-stock emails on items temporarily out-of-stock
  • Low-stock alerts so you can replenish inventory without interrupting sales
