How Fast-Growing Brands Use Prediko to Stay in Control

Prediko is a 5-star rated inventory planning and management app on Shopify App Store, trusted by 1000+ Shopify D2C brands. 

By helping brands avoid stockouts and overstocks, Prediko has become a go-to tool for building leaner, more scalable operations.

How to Make Best Use of Prediko When Growing Quickly?

When growth kicks in, inventory is no longer just boxes on shelves. It's the difference between momentum and mayhem.

The faster you grow, the harder it gets to balance stockouts, overstocks, seasonal peaks, and supplier lead times. 

This is where Prediko shifts from being an inventory tool to becoming a partner in your growth plans. 

Let’s discover how:

01. Accurately predict demand with AI-powered forecasting 

Most Shopify brands grow by riding waves of demand, be it seasonal spikes, new product launches, influencer campaigns, or events such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday (BFCM). 

Prediko’s algorithm for forecasting is trained on 25M+ SKUs across 15 industries, helps you anticipate demand with remarkable accuracy.

1. Plan for seasons and trends in advance 

Take a skincare brand, for example. Every winter, sales of moisturizers triple. But instead of crunching numbers manually in Excel, Prediko’s AI-powered forecasting picks up on seasonality and product-level velocity automatically.

That same clarity is what drives growth for Madam Glam, a nail color brand. In beauty, success depends on timing and color seasonality. 

With Prediko, they don’t just keep pace, they stay ahead by forecasting trending shades, planning launches around peak demand, and managing hundreds of SKUs with confidence so the right colors hit shelves at the right time.

Jewelry brand Kimaï has seen the same impact. Not every SKU moves the same way: their Oprah Eternity Ring peaks in wedding season, while the Wavy Ring sells steadily all year. 

2. Forecast raw materials to fulfil the upcoming demand 

If you’re a brand with in-house production, demand doesn’t just affect finished products; it also extends to raw materials.

That’s why Bright Body, a skin, hair, and baby care brand, turned to Prediko. They had been “eyeballing and gut-checking raw materials and finished goods for years,” which often led to stockouts and delayed production runs. 

With Prediko, Bright Body finds that setting production schedules and managing raw material orders is fast, easy, and reliable. 

The platform has lifted a huge amount of decision fatigue for their team by bringing everything into one place (from Purchase and Production Orders to sales forecasts), so everyone can quickly check in on status and stay aligned.

02. Launch new products with confidence 

When brands grow quickly, new product launches are a natural next step, but they are also make-or-break moments. 

The biggest challenge most Shopify brands face is knowing how much to order due to the lack of sales data for new products: buy too much and you lock up cash in unsold stock, buy too little and you risk missing demand. 

Madam Glam, known for launching fresh nail colors every month, uses Prediko to align raw material forecasts with production timelines, while easily planning new launches around peak demand.

Prediko’s forecasting AI makes the process predictable rather than stressful, spotting patterns and analyzing sales of similar products to generate precise inventory plans. 

Raw materials and supplier schedules connect directly to those forecasts, reducing the risk of production delays.

Once the product is live, Prediko’s reports and analytics let you track early performance and sell-through rates, helping you adjust reorders quickly. 

03. Save time by automating inventory management tasks

As volume picks up, what used to be a simple spreadsheet turns into hours of manual updates and supplier chasing. 

That’s why Sozy, a fast-growing fashion brand, calls Prediko a lifesaver for their Shopify store. With consistently accurate forecasts, automated stock alerts, and real-time Shopify sync, they no longer worry about juggling spreadsheets.

Their team can trust Prediko to keep right products in stock.

And it’s not just Sozy. With these features, Prediko takes repetitive tasks off your plate as well, giving you back valuable time to focus on growth.

1. AI Buying Plan for accurate purchasing decisions: Prediko’s AI also lays out a buying plan for you that uses demand forecasts to generate precise purchase recommendations on what products to stock, when to buy, and in what quantities. 

2. Automated replenishment: The app automatically tracks stock levels and sends low-stock alerts, accounting for safety stock and lead time before you run out. This way, you can stay ahead of demand spikes and avoid costly stockouts.

3. Real-time inventory sync with Shopify: Prediko integrates natively with Shopify, syncing sales and stock movements in real time. Every order automatically updates your inventory records. No spreadsheets, no manual updates, just accurate data you can trust.

4. In-built PO management: Once you know what to reorder, Prediko lets you create, track, and send purchase orders to your suppliers directly from the app in just a few clicks. For example, you can instantly generate a PO for 5000+ units with supplier details pre-filled, saving hours of admin work and reducing errors.

04. Centralize multi-warehouse and location tracking

As brands grow, expanding across channels, stores, and warehouses is inevitable. But with that growth often comes scattered stock, endless data reconciliation, and the risk of overstocking in one place while running dry in another.

Prediko solves this with 

• Multi-store and warehouse tracking: You get one dashboard to monitor stock across all Shopify stores and warehouses. Create demand plans and inventory insights by location or in a consolidated view to spot slow movers, prevent duplication, and keep every site stocked correctly.

• Inventory transfers to shift stock where needed: Demand rarely spreads evenly across locations. Prediko makes it easy to transfer inventory between warehouses or stores, so you can balance stock without overbuying. This way, slow-moving items don’t sit idle in one place while another location runs dry.

Zelva, the headwear brand, has seen the impact of that flexibility firsthand. They highlight how easy it is to set up different locations, group them, and choose which to use, giving their team full visibility and control as they scale across multiple sales channels.

05. Make smarter business decisions using reports & analytics

As your Shopify brand grows, decisions get harder. You’re juggling multiple products, warehouses, and channels. 

Yet most teams are still buried in spreadsheets, trying to stitch together numbers just to answer simple questions like “What’s selling fastest?” or “Where are we at risk of stockouts?”. 

Azio Beauty faced the same challenge before turning to Prediko. With its reporting, they’ve been able to stay ahead of the curve, ensuring products are always available when customers need them.

Prediko cuts through the data overload and fragmentation by offering

1. Pre-built 20+ inventory template reports: Prediko removes the manual work of analysis with 20+ ready-to-use inventory and sales reports. From SKU-level performance to stockout costs and turnover rates, you get the answers you need in a few clicks, no endless spreadsheet scrolls.

2. Daily and weekly summaries: Instead of waiting for end-of-month reports from a teammate, Prediko delivers daily and weekly summaries straight to your email and dashboard so that you can spot trends early, course-correct quickly, and keep your growth sustainable.

Eleat, the high-protein breakfast brand, has also found that Prediko goes beyond simple tracking. 

What really stands out for their team is the advanced analytics –clear insights into trends, demand patterns, and performance metrics. 

With this visibility, the team at Eleat can move past gut feel and make confident, data-driven decisions that keep their fast-growing brand on track.

06. Scale Operations with Prediko’s Integrations and AI agent

When brands start scaling, complexity multiplies. More channels, more suppliers, and more data often mean more tools to manage, and without the right systems, teams spend hours switching between platforms. 

1. 70+ integrations with ecommerce tools, WMS, 3PLs

Prediko connects seamlessly with 70+ apps and platforms, from ecommerce tools to 3PLs and WMS. 

This keeps your inventory, sales, and fulfilment data flowing automatically across systems, so nothing gets lost in silos and your team spends less time on manual updates.

With accurate data across the flow, everyone starts making educated decisions.

2. Inventory AI Agent 

AI agents are reshaping how teams work. Unlike traditional chatbots that only answer questions, agents can actually take action: they understand context, remember sessions, and execute tasks on your behalf. 

Think of them as digital teammates that carry out workflows instead of just surfacing information.

Prediko offers an AI Agent as well that helps you manage inventory at scale through simple natural language commands. 

Instead of navigating across multiple screens, you can open or schedule reports, refresh demand plans, draft purchase orders, or update delivery dates directly from an in-app chat.

The agent has session memory and security controls, and shares page-aware suggestions that adapt to where you are in the app, making workflows fast and intuitive. 

It also links directly to created reports or POs within the chat, so you can move from insight to action instantly.
