Description
Forthcast is an innovative application designed for Shopify merchants, utilizing AI to enhance demand forecasting and inventory management. By examining the sales history of your store, it predicts SKU-level demand for up to twelve months in advance, ensuring you can make informed purchasing decisions that help avoid both stockouts and excess inventory.
Key functionalities include detailed demand forecasts that incorporate seasonal and trend analyses; intelligent reorder notifications alongside calculations for reorder points; automatic generation of purchase orders; tracking of lost sales to assess revenue losses due to stockouts; detection of demand anomalies; support for bundles and kits without duplicating stock; customizable safety stock settings; management of multi-location inventory; and reporting on forecast accuracy.
Forthcast connects seamlessly in real-time with Shopify and also integrates with platforms such as Amazon, QuickBooks, Xero, and Notion. It is specifically designed to assist growing retailers with extensive and active product catalogs that have surpassed the capabilities of traditional spreadsheet-based planning systems, providing a more efficient and accurate way to manage their inventory needs. Additionally, this tool empowers merchants to optimize their stock levels effectively, ultimately leading to enhanced profitability and customer satisfaction.
Description
Tru-Stock AI serves as an advanced inventory intelligence layer specifically designed for wholesale distributors. While your inventory system keeps track of your stock, Tru-Stock goes a step further by providing actionable recommendations based on that data.
You can easily integrate Tru-Stock with your existing setup through either spreadsheet imports or direct API connections. Each night, it meticulously categorizes your entire inventory into five distinct statuses: healthy, at risk, overstock, dead stock, or out of stock, and it includes the rationale and inputs behind each assessment.
The safety stock calculations utilize King's formula, effectively accounting for lead-time variability. Reorder points are determined based on lead times drawn from your own historical receipts, eliminating the need for manual input. In cases where lead times have never been recorded, Tru-Stock transparently indicates this rather than making arbitrary guesses. Additionally, demand forecasts are generated weekly for each item, ensuring timely insights.
The multi-vendor variant rollup feature consolidates coverage for the same part sourced from various suppliers, preventing unnecessary reorder prompts for items you already have in stock. Purchase orders are organized by vendor while adhering to minimum order requirements.
With a self-service onboarding process that can be completed in less than 24 hours, users can quickly leverage the full potential of Tru-Stock AI. This efficiency empowers distributors to optimize their inventory management seamlessly.
