Prediko is a genuinely good app -- it just doesn't do everything. Here's an honest comparison, no bashing, to help you decide.
| Criteria | Prediko $49/mo entry (under $100K GMV/yr) |
Foreshelf $29/mo entry |
|---|---|---|
| Sales forecasting | Yes | Yes |
| Promo-spike filtering | Manual | Automatic (IQR) |
| Expiry date tracking | No | Yes |
| Automatic FEFO on sales | No | Yes |
| Conversational assistant | Yes ("PIA", their AI teammate) | Yes (Marcus, included in Growth+) |
| 90-day cash flow projection | No | Yes |
| Automatic purchase orders | Yes | Yes |
| Entry price | $49/mo, rises with your annual revenue | $29/mo, fixed price |
Prediko has a real AI agent ("PIA") and a 4.9-star rating across 233 reviews -- it's a mature product with multi-store, multi-warehouse support and 70+ WMS/3PL integrations. If nothing in your catalog has an expiry date and you want an ops team already trained on their interface, Prediko does the job well.
The difference isn't "having AI" -- both apps do. It's what Marcus actually sees: if you sell cosmetics, supplements, specialty food, or anything with an expiry date, Foreshelf tracks your lots (FEFO) and projects spoilage risk in dollars, which Prediko doesn't do. And the price doesn't climb with your revenue.
