Watches the world. Knows your shop.

Stock expires, slow movers pile up, and reorders drift from real demand — and between stocktakes you find out too late. ShelfSense checks every day and speaks up only when a call is worth acting on.

Products expire while you’re busy running the shop.

Dairy, bread and produce go bad between stocktakes. ShelfSense flags every at-risk batch days ahead with a recommended markdown — and shows the math: units that won’t clear, projected loss, and the discount to recover it.

You reorder by feel. The world has already shifted.

Too much of what no longer sells. Too little of what’s about to. ShelfSense reads your sell-through and cost basis and sizes each reorder to real demand — with a safety buffer and lead time it learns from your own history.

Slow-moving stock silently eats your capital.

Dead stock doesn’t announce itself. It just sits there. ShelfSense flags items losing their margin, with a recommended action and the expected recovery.

Free, no account needed

Let ShelfSense read your inventory once

Upload a CSV. ShelfSense reads it like a daily scan and shows you what it would flag, in 60 seconds, no signup, no commitment.

What the report shows:

  • The items ShelfSense would watch most closely
  • Top expiring items with the action it would recommend
  • Overstocked items tying up capital
  • An inventory-health snapshot, scored 0–100

Your data is analyzed and deleted immediately. Nothing is stored unless you create an account.

CSV, XLS, or XLSX, any format

3 steps

How it works

You connect your data once. ShelfSense watches. You decide.

1

Connect

Link Shopify, WooCommerce, Zoho or upload a CSV. Takes 2 minutes. Self-serve.

2

ShelfSense watches

Every morning it reads your shop — stock, batches, expiry dates, cost basis, sell-through — and decides what, if anything, is worth flagging.

3

You decide

Review the calls on your dashboard or via email. Every recommendation shows its math. Approve, reject, or ask questions. You stay in control.

The agent reasons across every signal that moves your costs and your shelves

ShelfSense AI: comprehensive inventory analysis across expiry, reorder, pricing, waste, supplier, and demand dimensions
It learns your store

It gets smarter every day

Most inventory software does the same thing on day 1 as on day 365. ShelfSense is different.

Day 1

ShelfSense is helpful; it spots the obvious risks in your inventory within minutes of connection.

Day 30

ShelfSense knows your rhythms: which products sell Mondays, which suppliers run late, which categories bleed waste.

Day 90

It has learned your patterns well enough to hand you and your team the calls that matter, before they become losses.

It watches whether each markdown you ran actually sold or got written off, and tunes the next recommendation to what clears in your store. Every day of observation makes tomorrow's recommendations better. That's the moat.

Every morning, ShelfSense has already:

A daily routine, done before you open the app. Your only job is the 1–3 calls that cleared the bar.

Prevent loss

Expiry intelligence

Flags items at risk with a recommended markdown that recovers revenue instead of sending stock to the bin. Each alert shows its own math, days left, projected loss, recommended discount.

Shrinkage detection

Stock dropped 200, sales show 40, something’s off. ShelfSense compares expected vs actual stock and surfaces discrepancies with a clear number to investigate.

Waste-as-money reports

You lost $4,700 this month. These 8 SKUs caused 80% of it. ShelfSense turns waste into a concrete number and names the causes.

Never sells you short

Every markdown sits above your breakeven. ShelfSense will deepen a discount to clear stock, but never below cost plus the minimum margin you set.

Flags what actually matters

Fast-movers that will clear on their own are left alone. High-value slow-movers — the ones quietly costing you — float to the top of the list.

Buy smarter

Reorder calls from real sell-through

Sizes each PO from your actual sell-through and cost basis, with a safety buffer and lead time learned from your history — not a static reorder point.

Capital-aware ordering

Need $50K but have $20K, here’s what to prioritize. ShelfSense respects the capital, storage, and shelf-life realities of your shop when it drafts POs.

Demand-trend detection

As your sales history builds, ShelfSense catches rising and falling trends and adjusts the reorder math — so you’re not ordering last month’s demand.

Supplier scorecard

Which supplier delivers late? Who has the highest damage rate? For connected systems with delivery history, ShelfSense turns months of receiving data into negotiation points — learned from your own orders.

Stay informed

Morning briefing

Three things need your attention today. A daily email digest with the calls that cleared confidence and ROI.

Bundled purchase orders

All reorders for your top supplier, bundled into one approval. ShelfSense groups POs by supplier so you’re not approving 14 of them.

All your stores, one agent

Intelligence across every location, or drill into one. Spot which branch is underperforming and why, and which stock is worth moving between them.

Transparency-first reports

Every recommendation carries its own reasoning, your cost basis, and the expected saving. Hand the PDF to your accountant, your partner, or your franchisor.

Email alerts that actually matter

High-confidence calls only. Silent on the rest. Review and approve from your inbox. No spam, no noise, just the 1–3 things worth your attention today.

Proof, not promises

A running tally of what ShelfSense saved you — built only from the recommendations you actually accepted and the outcomes it then observed.

See it in action

Ask. Get the math. Approve.

ShelfSense doesn’t just show you data. Ask it anything in plain English, read the reasoning behind every recommendation, and approve what’s worth acting on.

Ask anything about your inventory

“Which products are about to lose margin?” ShelfSense reads your stock, your cost basis, and your recent sell-through, and answers in one screen.

Questions

The stuff people usually ask.

Do I need to switch from my current inventory system?

No. ShelfSense sits on top of whatever you use, Tally, Zoho, Shopify, WooCommerce, or a CSV export. It reads your data, adds a daily intelligence layer on top, and never writes back.

How does it connect to Shopify / WooCommerce?

Generate an API key in Shopify Admin or WooCommerce settings, paste it into ShelfSense, done. Read-only. Takes 2 minutes.

Is my data safe?

Yes. ShelfSense only reads, it never writes to your system. Your data is never sold, never shared. If you leave, it comes with you.

How is this different from ShelfLifePro?

ShelfLifePro is a complete inventory management system. POS, batch tracking, GRN, GST compliance, expiry workflows. ShelfSense is an intelligence agent. It reads whatever you already use (including ShelfLifePro) and adds AI recommendations on top.

Can I use ShelfLifePro and ShelfSense together?

Yes, and that’s the deepest integration. ShelfLifePro gives batch-level data; ShelfSense reads that batch-level data and produces sharper recommendations than either can alone.

What if I use a system you don’t support?

Export your inventory as CSV and upload it. ShelfSense handles most formats automatically.

Can ShelfSense detect shrinkage or stock errors?

Yes. ShelfSense compares expected stock (from purchases and sales) against actual stock and flags the gap, so you can investigate before it gets stale.

What's the catch with the free tier?

None, really. But we limit free to 30 SKUs and only show you the health report (no actionable recommendations or WhatsApp alerts). It's enough to see if ShelfSense is reading your inventory correctly. Upgrade to Starter to actually act on its findings.

Is the 60-day guarantee real?

Yes. If ShelfSense has not shown measurable savings on your dashboard in your first 60 days, we refund your subscription. One click, no phone calls, no pressure.

An agent that never sleeps. Free to start.
