Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Inventory Hero — what it does, who it's for, and how it fits into your Amazon business.
What is Inventory Hero?
Inventory Hero is the inventory planning and demand forecasting platform built for Amazon FBA sellers who are tired of leaving money on the table. Connect your Seller Central account and Inventory Hero analyzes your sales velocity, on-hand stock, and supply chain to prevent stockouts, cut storage fees, and help you earn more revenue from the SKUs you already sell. Sellers who manage their inventory properly with Inventory Hero commonly see a 10–50% increase in revenue — not from new products, but from never going low or out of stock.
Who is Inventory Hero for?
Inventory Hero is built for Amazon FBA sellers of every size — from small brands scaling their first catalog to very large operations managing hundreds of SKUs across multiple warehouses. If you've ever lost a ranking because of a stockout, paid a surprise long-term storage fee, or wrestled with a 47-tab spreadsheet at 2am trying to plan your next PO, you're exactly who we built this for.
Which Amazon marketplaces does Inventory Hero support?
Inventory Hero is live on the US marketplace today, with rollouts to other major regions in progress. When you connect your Seller Central account, we pull your US sales and inventory data and start generating forecasts right away.
Does Inventory Hero support TikTok Shop, Shopify, or other sales channels?
Today, Inventory Hero is focused on Amazon FBA, Amazon Warehousing & Distribution (AWD), and third-party logistics (3PL) warehouses. Support for additional sales channels is on our roadmap.
How does demand forecasting work?
Inventory Hero turns your historical sales into a forward-looking plan. We combine your real sales velocity with seasonality signals and configurable growth assumptions to project unit demand over the next 30, 90, and 365 days. Forecasts update automatically as new orders come in, so your plan always reflects what customers are actually doing — not a snapshot that went stale three weeks ago.
How does Inventory Hero help me avoid stockouts?
Stockouts are silent revenue killers — Amazon quietly demotes your ranking, competitors scoop up your sales, and the recovery takes weeks. Inventory Hero watches your on-hand inventory, inbound shipments, and sales velocity around the clock. The moment a SKU's projected runway drops below your configured safety stock, we surface a restock recommendation that accounts for supplier lead times, minimum order quantities, and seasonal peaks — so you know exactly how many units to order and when.
Can I track inventory across multiple warehouses?
Yes. Inventory Hero gives you a single consolidated view across FBA, Amazon Warehousing & Distribution (AWD), and third-party logistics warehouses. Know what's available, what's in transit, and what's at risk — without bouncing between five browser tabs.
How does Inventory Hero help with long-term storage fees?
Aging inventory is expensive, and Amazon's long-term storage fees sneak up fast. Inventory Hero buckets every SKU by age (0–90, 91–180, 181–270, 271–365, and 365+ days), flags units approaching Amazon's long-term storage thresholds, and shows your projected storage cost exposure before fees hit your account — so you can run a promotion, bundle, or removal order while there's still time to react.
Is my data secure?
Yes. Inventory Hero meets all Amazon Selling Partner API security requirements and generally follows SOC 2 best practices for handling seller data. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every account starts with a free trial — no credit card required. Connect your Amazon account, see real recommendations against your actual SKUs, and decide if Inventory Hero is the sidekick your brand has been looking for.
