You sell on Shopify and want decisions, not dashboards: a daily briefing of what needs attention, AI forecasts that pick their own models, reorder suggestions before stockouts, and pricing recommendations from true margin. Or you simply want to stop paying $99+/month for forecasting a mid-size catalog.
You operate across many sales channels beyond Shopify, or your purchasing team relies on deeply customized PO workflows — multi-warehouse routing rules, complex supplier catalogs — that they've refined over years. Inventory Planner's maturity there is real, and Yeer doesn't try to replicate every configuration knob.
You don't have to choose blind: Yeer installs alongside Inventory Planner with no migration (it reads your Shopify history directly). Run both for a week, compare the recommendations, keep what works.
For Shopify stores, Yeer is a strong Inventory Planner alternative: AI demand forecasting per product, reorder suggestions, plus pricing and competitor tracking that Inventory Planner doesn't do. Yeer starts free; Inventory Planner starts around $99/month.
No. Install Yeer free alongside Inventory Planner and run both for a week. Yeer reads your Shopify history directly — no export, import, or reconfiguration — so switching later means simply uninstalling the tool you no longer use.
Yes for most stores. Yeer's free plan covers up to 50 products; Growth is $49/month for up to 500 products. Inventory Planner typically starts around $99/month with no free tier.
If you sell primarily on non-Shopify platforms (Inventory Planner supports more sales channels), or your team depends on deeply customized purchase-order workflows built over years, Inventory Planner may fit better today. Yeer is Shopify-first and optimized for AI-driven decisions over manual PO configuration.
No — Inventory Planner primarily projects from historical sales with configurable formulas. Yeer runs multiple AI models (seasonal, trend, recent velocity) per product, picks the best automatically, and layers demand sensing on top so forecasts correct within days when reality shifts.
No migration, no uninstall, no credit card. Compare recommendations on your own store.
