## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-23 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> "Best" here depends almost entirely on your revenue and channel mix, so here's what I'd actually name, roughly in the order I'd suggest looking at them.
> 
> ## For Shopify-first DTC brands (under ~$10M)
> 
> **1. Inventory Planner (by Sage)** - The default, and the one I'd look at first. It's the most mature product in this category, handles forecasting, replenishment, purchase orders, and multi-warehouse, and connects to Shopify, Amazon, and most 3PLs. Pricing is quote-based and gets expensive at scale - reported base around $120-$250/mo for one warehouse and 1,000 SKUs, plus ~$80/mo per extra warehouse and ~$15/mo per additional 1,000 SKUs, often on a 12-month contract.

> 
> **2. Prediko** - The one I'd recommend if you want fast time-to-value without an enterprise sales cycle. Real-time Shopify sync, per-SKU revenue and unit forecasts, and one-click POs out of those forecasts. Cheapest credible option at roughly $49-$119/mo, and it has the strongest review record in the category. ([prediko.io](https://www.prediko.io/blog/inventory-demand-planning
