Stop paying to advertise products you can't sell.
AdBeacon Inventory Intelligence syncs live Shopify inventory with your ad performance, so you see stock levels, revenue and gross margin for every product next to campaign results. Put spend behind products that are in stock and profitable, and stop wasting budget on the ones that aren't.
Included on every plan. Syncs with Shopify in real time.
Synced from Shopify as items sell, restock or are discontinued.

What is inventory-aware advertising?
Inventory-aware advertising means deciding where ad spend goes based on live stock levels and product margins, not just ROAS.
It keeps budget on products you can actually ship and that actually make money. With Shopify inventory synced to first-party ad data, media buyers can see a problem product before it burns through budget, and move spend to the products that will pay it back.
Sold-out products still get clicks. Ads keep running after stock hits zero unless someone catches it.
Best sellers aren't always best earners. High order volume can hide a thin gross margin.
Live data closes the gap. Syncing inventory with ad performance shows problems before they cost money.
Ad platforms can't see your stock room. Meta and Google optimize toward conversions, with no idea what's in stock or what each product earns.
Net revenue tells the real story. Discounts and returns can quietly turn a "winning" product into a loss, so AdBeacon tracks net revenue and margin, not just sales.

Inventory Intelligence FAQ
What is AdBeacon Inventory Intelligence?
It's an AdBeacon feature that syncs live Shopify inventory with first-party ad performance data. Media buyers and brands see stock levels, revenue and gross margin for each product next to campaign results, so spend goes to products that are in stock and profitable.
Does AdBeacon pull Shopify inventory?
Yes. AdBeacon connects directly to Shopify and keeps inventory in sync as products sell, restock or are discontinued.
Which product metrics does Inventory Intelligence track?
Product name, stock on hand, orders, gross revenue, net revenue after discounts and returns, unique customers and gross margin for every product.
How does inventory data reduce wasted ad spend?
It shows when promoted products are running low or are out of stock, so you can pause those ads or move budget to in-stock products before paying for clicks that can't convert.
What is gross margin tracking for ecommerce?
Gross margin is the revenue left after the cost of goods. Tracking it per product shows which items actually make money, so you scale profitable products instead of just high-volume ones.
How should I adjust ad spend when a product is running low?
Shift budget toward similar in-stock, high-margin products before the item sells out, and switch any upsells to complementary products with healthy inventory.
Can inventory data improve upsells?
Yes. When you know a product has limited stock, you can promote complementary items with healthier inventory as upsells, so offers keep converting.
Who uses Inventory Intelligence?
Media buyers use it to put spend behind in-stock, high-margin products. Marketing teams plan promotions around real stock levels, and operations teams see demand coming so they can restock in time.
Is Inventory Intelligence included in every plan?
Yes. Every AdBeacon feature, including Inventory Intelligence, is included on every plan with no add-ons.
