Know what to reorder, how much and when. Explained.

Shopify retired Stocky, and most forecasting tools are built for big ops teams or show black-box "AI" numbers. Foreshelf tells small stores what to reorder, how much and when, and shows the maths. What stands out: - Every number explained: "sells 5/day, 12 days left, 14-day lead time → reorder 90" - Reorder report by supplier, purchase orders, receiving - Dead stock report: cash tied up in slow movers - Read-only: never changes your store - Free for 50 SKUs, no card
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 Sam here, maker of Foreshelf at Ksentri.
Shopify retired Stocky, its free purchasing and forecasting app, on 31 August 2026. Thousands of small stores lost the tool that told them what to reorder. The alternatives mostly fall into two camps: expensive platforms built for brands with an ops team, or "AI forecasts" that give you a number with no reason behind it.
Foreshelf is built for the store owner who does purchasing on a Sunday night:
→ It reads your sales and inventory history (read-only, it never changes your store).
→ Every product gets a status: Reorder now, Reorder soon, Stockout, Overstock, Healthy.
→ Every recommendation explains itself: "Sells 5/day, 12 days of stock left, 14-day lead time → reorder 90 now."
→ Group the reorder list by supplier, edit quantities, turn it into purchase orders, and receive stock with a barcode scanner.
→ The dead stock report shows how much cash is tied up in products that haven't sold in 90+ days.
Coming from Stocky? Upload any CSV with a SKU column and map your suppliers, lead times and minimum order quantities. No special export format needed.
Free for up to 50 SKUs. Paid plans start at $19/month for unlimited SKUs.
I'd love your feedback:
1. How do you decide what to reorder today: spreadsheet, gut feeling, or a tool?
2. Would you trust a forecast more if you could see the maths behind it?
3. What did you miss most after Stocky shut down?
I'll be here all day answering every comment. Thanks for checking it out! 🙏
