Introducing Forestock: Know When to Reorder Before You Stock Out

Every Shopify merchant we spoke to had the same problem: they found out they were out of stock when a customer complained, or when they noticed the product had dropped off their bestseller list. By then, the damage was already done.

The data to predict this — sales velocity, current stock, supplier lead time — was sitting right there in their Shopify admin. Nobody was doing the math on it consistently. Most merchants were running on instinct and memory, checking their stock levels whenever they remembered to.

Forestock takes your Shopify order export (a CSV file) and returns, in under 30 seconds:

• Every product ranked by stockout risk (Critical / High / Medium / Safe)
• Exact days of stock remaining for each SKU based on actual sales velocity
• The specific calendar date by which you need to place a reorder
• Recommended reorder quantity with safety stock buffer
• Revenue at risk if critical products stock out
• An overall inventory health score (0–100) so you can track improvement over time

Forestock is built specifically for Shopify merchants managing physical products — especially D2C brands in India who are growing fast and managing 20–200+ SKUs across categories like wellness, fashion, home, and electronics.

It works whether you manufacture your own products, source from domestic suppliers, or import from overseas. The lead time input lets you calibrate forecasts to your exact supply chain.

The AI layer does two things a simple spreadsheet formula cannot: it detects sales trend changes (a product accelerating or decelerating), and it provides contextual recommendations that explain why a product is at risk — not just that it is.

Forestock has a free tier — upload your CSV and run a full forecast with no credit card required. If it saves you one stockout, it has already paid for itself.
