Stocky buying workflow without ERP weight
Shopify Stocky Alternative for Reorder Planning
Know what to reorder, what to pause, and which purchase orders to send before stockouts cost you sales.
Built for small Shopify teams that need buying decisions and supplier POs, not a full ERP implementation.
Early access discount
First 10 customers get 30% off the first payment.
The discount applies to the initial audit/onboarding payment only. Monthly monitoring stays at the published plan price.
Why now
Stocky workflows are going away.
Shopify's Stocky app will no longer be available after August 31, 2026. The risky part is not just losing an app. It is losing the daily buying workflow: suppliers, reorder rules, purchase orders, receiving, stock counts, and the confidence that you are ordering the right SKUs.
The product promise
Every SKU needs a decision, not another chart.
Vamao Inventory OS ranks your buying work by urgency, confidence, supplier lead time, incoming purchase orders, and overstock risk.
What the buyer sees first
Weekly reorder digest
Email previewSend buyers a short decision memo instead of asking them to open every report.
SKU detail explains why
Confidence, lead time, incoming POs, sales velocity, and overstock context are shown together so the buyer can trust the recommendation.
Live monitoring
Shopify sync first. CSV when you need migration control.
Monitoring plans should connect Shopify through OAuth so products, variants, inventory, orders, locations, and fulfilment signals stay fresh. CSV import remains useful for Stocky exports, supplier spreadsheets, and audit-only buyers.
Supplier-ready output
Purchase orders should move through a visible lifecycle.
Stocky exit checklist
Migration should feel like a control room, not a folder of exports.
Vamao keeps the uncomfortable parts visible: missing suppliers, missing costs, old PO history, protected order data access, and what still needs manual reconstruction.
Comparison, not plan tiers
Where Vamao fits
These are buyer options merchants compare while replacing Stocky. Vamao has only the three product plans shown below: Migration Audit, Starter Monitoring, and Growth Monitoring.
DIY spreadsheets
No software fee, but slow, manual, and error-prone once suppliers, variants, and open POs grow.
Low-cost forecast apps
Good for reorder math; often weaker on Stocky migration, supplier PO workflow, receiving, and audit history.
Vamao Inventory OS
Best fit for Stocky exit, reorder decisions, supplier POs, audit logs, and lightweight Shopify monitoring.
ERP/WMS suites
Choose these instead if you need accounting sync, EDI/3PL, carrier labels, bin maps, manufacturing, or deep multi-channel operations.
Launch discount active
First 10 customers get 30% off the first payment.
No code required. Checkout reserves a campaign slot briefly, then marks it used only after payment completes.
Choose the right start
There is no free $0 plan. Use a one-time audit if you are still migrating. Use Starter or Growth when you want Vamao watching reorder risk every week. Monitoring plans include the onboarding audit today, then monthly billing starts after the trial period shown at checkout.
One-time Stocky/Shopify CSV audit, readiness report, supplier gaps, reorder gaps, and PO recommendations.
Onboarding audit today, then $19/month after the checkout trial period. Includes reorder decisions, Shopify sync, decision digest, supplier POs, alerts, audit log, and CSV fallback for one Shopify shop.
Onboarding audit today, then $49/month after the checkout trial period. Built for up to 3 shops, larger SKU volume, richer monitoring, API access, and opt-in critical SMS alerts.

FAQ
Can I keep using CSV files?
Yes. CSV import remains available for Stocky migration, one-time audits, and fallback workflows. Monitoring plans should use Shopify sync as the primary path.
Will it change Shopify inventory automatically?
Read sync is the default. Any live writeback must stay guarded, permissioned, confirmed, queued, and audit logged.
Why pay $49/month if cheaper apps exist?
The value is not a chart. It is the Stocky exit workflow: decision list, supplier POs, receiving, audit trail, and reorder decision digest in one lightweight system.
What if I need a full ERP?
Use a heavier tool if you need accounting sync, WMS, EDI, 3PL, manufacturing BOM, or pick/pack/ship. Vamao is intentionally focused on Shopify reorder and PO operations.
