How to get Amazon FBA stockout alerts
We have not tested these tools hands-on; this page is built from each vendor's own pricing and feature pages plus our tool listings. Links on this page are plain (non-affiliate) links. Always confirm prices on the vendor site.
Whatever tool you pick, alerts are only as good as the lead times you enter. Put in real supplier production + shipping + FBA check-in time, or the alert arrives too late.
The options
| Tool | Price (checked 2026-10-14) | Best for | The catch |

Prices read from each vendor's own pricing page on 2026-10-14 (Oct 14, 2026). "Not verified" means we could not confirm a price on the vendor page that day.
FAQ
Is there a free way?
Amazon's own Seller Central inventory reports can show restock suggestions, but you have to open them; we did not verify an Amazon push-alert feature, so it is not listed as one.
Cheapest Amazon-specific option?
Of verified prices, Helium 10 Platinum at $99/mo yearly, if its SKU cap fits your catalog.
What should an alert be based on?
Days of cover = units available ÷ daily sales. Reorder when days of cover drops below total lead time plus safety stock.
