Find the stock that is quietly costing you money.

Overstock Finder measures weeks of cover against the forecast and flags items that will not sell through in time. For each one it suggests where the stock would sell faster, or what markdown would clear it.

    Measure cover

    Cover is calculated for every item and location against your target weeks.

  2. 02

    Match surplus

    Surplus is paired with shortfall elsewhere, considering transfer cost and travel time.

  3. 03

    Clear the rest

    Remaining excess gets a markdown suggestion, which you can test first in Promo Impact.
