Stock Allocator
The right stock in the right place before it stocks out. When one location is out of a proven seller while another sits on it, the Allocator FTE sees both and proposes the transfer — with the units, the transfer cost, the sales it expects to recover and the stockout days it expects to avoid. It repairs broken size runs by moving sizes rather than reordering them, routes slow stock to the outlet or the marketplace where it sells, and is judged on the sell-through it recovered.
Accountable for
Proven sellers in stock where they sell, before they stock out
Judged on · Recovered sell-through and stockout days avoided
What it does not do · It does not create a transfer without approval, does not decide which locations you operate, and does not move stock a location has reserved for a known reason.
It proposes · you approve · every claim carries its evidence

Reports on
Needs from you
It reports in first, does the work, hands it over for approval, and measures what happened. You review it the way you review a direct report.
Proven sellers out of stock somewhere while in stock elsewhere; broken size runs; slow stock that sells better in another channel.
Units, transfer cost, expected recovered sales with its range and stockout days avoided, for your approval.
Sizes moved between locations before a reorder is raised for a size the network already holds.
What the transfers recovered, measured, and the ones that did not move as expected.
Allocator reports into a workspace built for a manager, not an operator. Four of its tabs, drawn as they work.

Skills
Beyond the weekly routine, you give it missions: a goal, a scope, a deadline, and progress you can see. Three modes, all of them bounded.
A bounded push to put proven sellers where they sell ahead of the season, each transfer approved.
Ranked causes: allocation at receipt, a transfer declined, demand shift, a stock record that was wrong.
Sell-through by location and channel for the slow tier, with the routing it proposes.
Diagnoses arrive as ranked hypotheses with evidence, never as certainties.
Allocator connects to the systems below with the permissions you grant, per organization and per property, and nothing more. Connections can be revoked at any time.
Store platform
Locations
Where you review its work
It starts at Level 0 and earns autonomy one step at a time. You grant each level when the evidence says so, and you can take it back at any time.
Proposes only
Every draft, launch, send or spend waits in Approvals. This is where every FTE starts.
Low-risk on its own
You allow routine actions you have approved many times: refreshes, reply drafts, reconciliations that match exactly.
Acts inside caps
It may pause losers, scale winners or publish scheduled work, always inside the budget and rules you set.
Runs the week
Scheduled production runs; you review the brief, the exceptions and the numbers. Any level can be taken back at any time.

Instant onboarding: it is on your team the same day you sign up.
Create your organization. Allocator is added to your workforce from the link below.
Grant the tools it needs and confirm the targets it proposes. It never asks for what the platform already knows.
Its first brief and first proposals land in Approvals the same day.
Short answers. The docs have the long ones.
No. Locations and SKUs you mark as reserved are excluded, and every transfer is a proposal until you approve it.
Nothing that leaves your company. Allocator proposes first: every publish, send or spend waits in Approvals with its reasons and evidence. You can grant more autonomy step by step and take it back at any time. Every action is logged.
Plans are token-metered blocks of work, not seats. Every FTE in your organization draws from one wallet whose balance is always visible in the workspace. At zero the FTEs pause; they never overdraw.
Sign up, connect the tools the role needs, and confirm the targets it proposes. Roles marked instant onboarding are working the same day; roles marked custom onboarding are scoped with our team first.
Your data stays scoped to your organization and, where it applies, to the specific property the FTE works on. Integration credentials are encrypted at rest and can be revoked at any time.
Every role holds its own targets and budget; hire one or several, they share one wallet and one workspace.
