Amazon Restock Planning Software with Demand Forecasting

Inventory management tells you what you have right now. Restock planning tells you what to order next and when. Good restock software turns sales velocity, lead time, inbound inventory, and Amazon's IPI score pressure into concrete reorder recommendations that protect you from stockouts without over-investing capital. SellerVault does both — and they're integrated, unlike standalone tools.

Four differences: (1) Monte Carlo forecasting instead of trailing averages — matters enormously for seasonal and high-variance SKUs. (2) Integrated FBA shipment wizard — you can go from "I need to restock" to "shipment is booked" in one click. Competitors force you to export to Excel and re-enter elsewhere. (3) Case-pack-aware quantities so you never get a "ship 47 units" recommendation when your supplier ships in cases of 24. (4) Placement fee inference — we detect which items should use AWD placement vs inbound placement vs paid placements to minimize fees.

For each SKU, we take the last 90-180 days of daily sales, fit a probability distribution, and simulate 10,000 possible sales trajectories over your forecast horizon. The output is a distribution of outcomes: median, 25th percentile, 75th percentile, 95th percentile. Instead of guessing at safety stock, you set a service level (e.g., "95% probability of not stocking out") and the engine computes the reorder quantity that achieves it. This is how serious supply chain software has worked for decades — SellerVault is just the first to bring it to FBA sellers.

Yes. You configure lead time per SKU (or per supplier, or per category). The engine factors lead time variance into its reorder recommendations — if a supplier is unreliable, safety stock goes up. The "Ship Now" urgency indicator triggers when projected stockout is within your lead time window, meaning you need to order immediately to avoid a gap.

Yes. The marketing events module lets you add planned sales events with expected demand lift (e.g., "Prime Day 2026, expect 3x baseline demand"). Restock recommendations factor in upcoming events automatically. For Q4 seasonality, the forecasting engine looks at last year's Q4 pattern and incorporates it into the current forecast. You can also manually override any SKU's forecast with a custom adjustment.

Yes. SellerVault supports multiple locations (FBA, 3PL, prep center, direct-ship) and factors total on-hand inventory across all of them into restock decisions. If you're running a hybrid FBA + 3PL operation, the restock engine knows not to over-order when there's stock sitting in your 3PL waiting to be sent to Amazon.

Nightly for the full catalog. High-velocity SKUs (A-items) are re-forecast every few hours as new sales data arrives. Ship Now alerts fire in real-time as inventory drops below threshold — you don't have to wait until tomorrow to see a critical stockout warning.

Yes. Every SKU has an override field for manual adjustments to the forecast, the safety stock level, or the recommended restock quantity. You can also bulk-apply overrides across a filter (e.g., "reduce forecast by 20% for all Category X SKUs during a slow season"). Overrides are tracked with a reason and expiration date so they don't linger forever.
