Never Lose a Sale to Stockouts Again

When a customer needs a product today and you do not have it in stock, they call your competitor. Tru-Stock AI monitors every SKU in real-time, predicts stockouts before they happen, and generates reorder suggestions so you always have what your customers need.

The True Cost of Stockouts

Stockouts in distribution are uniquely expensive. Unlike retail where a customer might wait or substitute, your customers often need a specific part for a specific job — today. When you are out of stock, there is no upsell opportunity or rain check. The customer simply calls another distributor.

Real-Time Risk Monitoring

Tru-Stock AI categorizes every product in your inventory by risk level based on days of stock remaining relative to vendor lead times. The system uses a color-coded bucketing system that gives you instant visibility into your inventory health.

Critical

7 days or less of stock remaining. Order immediately or face a stockout before replenishment arrives.

At Risk

14 days or less. Approaching reorder point. Place an order this week to maintain coverage.

Watch

30 days or less. Not urgent but should be on your radar for the next order cycle.

Healthy

More than 30 days of stock. Well-positioned with no action needed.

Stockout Timeline

The dashboard stockout timeline shows your products ranked by urgency — the ones closest to running out appear at the top with one-click order buttons. You see exactly how many days of stock remain, which vendor supplies each item, and the lead time required, so you can make fast decisions on what to order first.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a stockout cost a distributor?

A stockout costs far more than the lost sale. When a customer needs a product today and you do not have it, they go to a competitor. The average lost sale is $200-500, but the lifetime customer value loss can be thousands. Plus, emergency expedited orders often cost 30-50% more.

How does Tru-Stock AI predict stockouts before they happen?

The system continuously monitors every SKU on-hand quantity, current sales velocity, and incoming orders. It calculates days-of-stock remaining and compares this to vendor lead times. When a product will run out before a new order can arrive, it is flagged as critical.

What is a stockout timeline in Tru-Stock AI?

The stockout timeline shows your products sorted by how soon they will run out at current sales velocity. Products with 5 days of stock remaining appear at the top as critical priorities, giving you clear visibility into what needs ordering first.
