Inventory planning for e-commerce: restock on time, prevent stockouts, improve cash flow
About Fabrikatör
Fabrikatör is an inventory and demand planning app for Shopify and Shopify Plus brands. It forecasts demand per SKU from sales history and seasonality, recommends restock quantities and timing, and turns them into purchase orders. It also handles backorders and pre-orders, freight planning, and reporting. The company is a Berlin-based startup.
