Automated Squarespace Low Stock Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens your Squarespace store, reads the stock level on every product and variant, compares each against your reorder point, posts the low and sold-out lines to Slack with how fast they are selling, and queues a Twilio text to your supplier contact for you to approve before it goes out.

In short

How do I get alerted when my store is running low on stock?

WebRun checks every Squarespace product and variant each morning, comparing live stock against the reorder point you set. It posts the sold-out and low lines to Slack with seven-day sales, then queues a Twilio text to your supplier for approval, so restocking starts before a product runs out.

  • Best sellers get reordered before they hit zero
  • Supplier texts are written for you and wait on your approval
  • The team sees stock position every morning without opening Commerce

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it place orders with my suppliers?

No. Every reorder text is queued in Twilio and waits for you to approve it. WebRun writes the message with quantities filled in, and no supplier hears anything until a human releases it.

Does it change stock levels or hide products?

No. It reads your inventory only. Stock counts, prices, product visibility, and store settings are never edited, so nothing changes in your storefront.

Can I set different reorder points per product?

Yes. Each product or variant can carry its own reorder point, and WebRun compares live stock against the point you set for that specific line every morning.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
