01
Bin-level tracking
Every variant lives at one or more named bins. Configurable, searchable, and unique per location.
Every SKU has an address.
Every pick list finds it.
BinTech subdivides Shopify's on-hand inventory into physical bin locations — so your pickers know exactly where to walk, and your counts never drift from what's actually on the shelf.
- Low-stock alerts
- Per-variant thresholds, edge-triggered on every inventory change.
- Pick strategies
- Priority, single-bin, or consolidate-empty.
- Reconciliation
- Variance bin catches every external change.
Built for the floor, not the dashboard.
BinTech doesn't replace Shopify's inventory — it subdivides it. Every feature is designed for the people who actually walk the aisles.
02
Automated pick lists
FulfillmentOrder webhook fires → BinTech generates a location-scoped pick list the moment Shopify routes an order.
03
Multi-location, first-class
Collapsible sections per warehouse, per-location inventory, and 3PL exclusion for anything managed by ShipBob or FBA.
04
Three picking strategies
Priority order, single-bin preference, or pick-to-empty. Chosen per shop, overridable per pick list.
05
Cycle counts & audits
Lock bins, count physical stock, reconcile with Shopify on confirmation. Every movement logged with who, when, and why.
06
Variance reconciliation
POS sale, damaged stock, surprise shipment? The variance bin catches every external change and surfaces it for review.
07
Low-stock alerts
Set per-variant thresholds. When available inventory drops below the line, BinTech fires on the webhook, not a daily cron.
One order, five states, zero drift.
Every event that can change your inventory — order placement, picking, fulfillment, POS sales, returns — has a defined handler. Bins and Shopify's on-hand stay in lockstep.
-
Order placed
Shopify routes the order. FulfillmentOrder webhook fires with the assigned location.
-
Pick list generated
BinTech picks bins by strategy, subtracts active reservations, and writes a shareable list — no login required for pickers.
-
Worker picks from bins
Pickers tick items off on a mobile-friendly view. Items can be reassigned to a different bin mid-pick if stock shifted.
-
Pick list COMPLETED
All items picked. Bins still reserved. Awaiting merchant confirmation in Shopify.
-
Order fulfilled
orders/fulfilled webhook decrements bins for picked items only. Unpicked items become variance for review.
INVARIANT
sum(bin.quantity) ≤ Shopify.on_hand · always Designed by warehouse people, for warehouse people.
Every screen is mirrored inside the Shopify admin — your team never leaves the tool they already use for everything else.
Pick the way your warehouse actually runs.
Every warehouse has a different geometry. BinTech ships three strategies out of the box — pickable per shop and overridable per pick list, until the order is in progress.
STRATEGY · 01 01
Priority
Pick in the order you built.
Walk the aisle in a defined sequence. Best for warehouses with an established picking route or rack logic.
STRATEGY · 02 02
Single bin
One stop if possible.
Prefer the bin that holds the full order quantity. Falls back to priority when no single bin can fulfill.
STRATEGY · 03 03
Pick-to-empty
Consolidate as you go.
Empty the smallest bins first. Frees storage over time and keeps your inventory naturally condensed.
THE DELTA PROBLEM · SOLVED
Shopify changed something. You'll know about it.
A POS sale. A damaged unit. A return you didn't know about. When Shopify's on-hand drifts from your bin totals, BinTech records a variance — with the SKU, the location, and the delta — and waits for you to allocate or dismiss it.
- +N Positive variance. New stock arrived or a return landed. Shown as Unallocated — assign to a bin.
- −N Negative variance. A sale or shrinkage somewhere in the warehouse. Deduct from a bin or dismiss the discrepancy.
LOW-STOCK ALERTS · EDGE-TRIGGERED
Know before you're out.
Set a threshold on any variant. The moment Shopify's available inventory crosses the line, BinTech triggers the alert. Sales, adjustments, fulfillments. No polling. No daily cron. Seconds, not hours.
- Per-variant thresholds. Different reorder points for fast-movers and long-tail SKUs.
- Auto-resolve on restock. When inventory rises back above the threshold, the alert clears itself.
- Tier-gated limits. Free gets 25 alert SKUs, Unlimited gets no cap.
