Inventory Planner vs Prediko (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Inventory Planner if

• Fits if you already run Shopify, Brightpearl or similar and need better reorder planning
• Works for teams with many SKUs to forecast

Look elsewhere if

• Not for you if you want to start this week, as go-live takes 5 to 6 weeks
• Skip it if you want a price, as it asks for a request
• Too light for an inventory system, since stock and orders live in another platform
• Skip it if you want to try free, as no trial is listed

Pick Prediko if

• Fits if you sell on Shopify and your buying is guesswork
• Works for a small store with under $100K in yearly sales

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you are not on Shopify, because billing is built around a Shopify store
• Pricey if your sales grow, since the fee follows 12-month sales
• Tight if you make things: raw materials and bills of materials are an add-on from $20 a month
• Watch out: onboarding, full API access and a success manager sit in higher sales bands
• Watch out: WMS integrations are in the top bands too

Inventory Planner

• No prices are published; the pricing page says cost is based on the volume of inventory managed and asks for a request.
• Unlimited users are included at no extra cost, per the pricing page.
• The vendor quotes 5 to 6 weeks to go live, so onboarding is not instant.
• It plans and generates purchasing; stock and orders are held in the connected platform.

Prediko

• Pricing follows annual sales (GMV), so the fee rises as the store grows.
• Raw materials and bill-of-materials forecasting is a separate add-on starting at $20 a month.
• Onboarding, full API access, a customer success manager and WMS integrations are gated to higher sales bands.
• Billing runs through Shopify Billing, so it is built around a Shopify store.
