Roadmap

For years, Dynasort has helped Shopify merchants optimize their collection pages with intelligent, automated sorting. Today, we’re excited to announce that this same merchandising intelligence is now available for your product pages with Product Sorting — now live in beta for all Dynasort users. If you’ve ever manually reordered color swatches, adjusted size options, or wondered why certain variants get clicked more than others, this feature is built specifically for you. The Problem: Product Options That Work Against You Here’s a scenario that plays out thousands of times every day across Shopify stores: A customer lands on your product page, sees a beautiful hero image, and is ready to buy. They scroll to the color options and see… a sold-out color as the first swatch. Or maybe it’s sorted alphabetically, so “Azure Blue” appears before your best-selling “Black.” That customer now has to work harder to find what they want. Some will. Many won’t. This isn’t just a minor inconvenience — it’s a conversion killer. And during high-traffic periods like Black Friday Cyber Monday, when every percentage point matters, these small friction points add up to real revenue loss. The traditional solution? Manual updates. Ecommerce managers checking inventory levels, reviewing sales data, and manually reordering product options. It’s time-consuming, error-prone, and nearly impossible to maintain across hundreds or thousands of products. The Solution: Intelligent, Automated Product Sorting Product Sorting brings the same automated merchandising intelligence you already use for collections directly to your product pages. It continuously monitors your store’s performance data and automatically reorders your product options — colors, sizes, materials, styles — based on what actually drives results. How It Works Product Sorting analyzes your store’s real-time data across multiple metrics: The system runs continuously in the background, updating your product option order as your inventory and sales patterns change. No manual intervention required. Why This Matters Right Now We’re launching Product Sorting in beta just before Black Friday Cyber Monday for a reason: this is when automated merchandising matters most. During BFCM, your store experiences: Product Sorting ensures that every product page is always optimized, even when inventory and demand are changing by the hour. Your customers always see the most relevant, in-stock options first — automatically. Key Features of Product Sorting (Beta) Always In-Stock First The most frustrating customer experience in e-commerce? Clicking on a product only to discover your preferred option is sold out. Product Sorting automatically moves out-of-stock variants to the end of your option lists, ensuring customers always see available inventory first. This is especially powerful for stores with multiple variants. A dress available in 8 colors and 5 sizes has 40 possible combinations. Without intelligent sorting, customers might click through several sold-out combinations before finding what’s available. Performance-Ranked Options Not all variants perform equally. Your black t-shirt might outsell your chartreuse one by 10x. Product Sorting identifies these performance patterns and surfaces your best-sellers first, increasing the likelihood that customers select high-converting options. This creates a positive feedback loop: high-performing variants get more visibility, leading to even better performance, while underperforming options naturally fall to the bottom of the list. Real-Time Automation Unlike manual merchandising, Product Sorting updates continuously. When a variant sells out, it’s automatically deprioritized. When inventory is restocked, it’s automatically re-promoted. When a new color starts trending, it automatically rises in the rankings. Your product pages stay optimized 24/7, without any manual intervention from your team. Multi-Metric Intelligence Product Sorting doesn’t rely on a single metric. It considers multiple factors simultaneously: This multi-dimensional approach ensures your product options are sorted based on a holistic view of performance, not just one data point. What “Beta” Means for You We’re launching Product Sorting as a beta feature because we believe in building with our merchants, not just for them. Here’s what beta means: Included in Your Plan Product Sorting is already available in your Dynasort account at no additional cost. No upgrade required, no new billing. Just open Dynasort and navigate to the Products section — it’s ready to use. We Want Your Feedback This is the first iteration of Product Sorting, and we’re eager to hear how it works for your store. What metrics matter most to you? What sorting rules would make this even more powerful? What edge cases does your catalog present? We’re actively developing the roadmap for Product Sorting, and your real-world feedback will directly influence what we build next. Not Final Yet Because this is a beta release, you can expect additional features, refinements, and improvements in the coming weeks and months. We’re committed to making Product Sorting the most powerful automated merchandising tool for Shopify product pages, and we’re just getting started.

In Q1 2025, we’ll be launching the Inventory Buffer feature, designed to give merchants more control over inventory calculations. With Inventory Buffer, merchants can set an integer buffer threshold that adjusts inventory calculations across their store. This feature helps prevent overselling by allowing merchants to designate a buffer level that effectively marks products as out of stock once they hit a specified quantity threshold. What Is Inventory Buffer? The Inventory Buffer feature lets merchants define a buffer number that affects all inventory-based calculations, such as inventory quantity and sold-out status. By setting a buffer value, merchants can ensure that products with low stock levels are treated as out of stock sooner, adding an extra layer of inventory control. How Merchants Can Use Inventory Buffer: Benefits for Merchants: Looking Ahead: The Inventory Buffer feature is set to launch in Q1 2025 and will be a valuable addition to Dynasort’s inventory management toolkit. By allowing merchants to implement buffer levels in inventory calculations, Dynasort continues to empower merchants with precise, customizable tools to optimize stock control and ensure a smooth customer experience.

Overview: Launching in December 2024, Flex Attributes will provide merchants with powerful customization options for ranking products across different collections. Flex Attributes function like Dynasort’s standard ranking attributes but allow for multiple versions of an attribute, each with its own values. This feature is ideal for merchants who want tailored ranking criteria for different product categories, collections, or inventory types. What Are Flex Attributes? Flex Attributes enable merchants to create multiple instances of a ranking attribute with unique minimum and maximum values. Merchants can then apply these different versions in separate ranking recipes, allowing for customized ranking strategies that reflect specific collection needs or product types. Flex Attribute Options: Once live, Flex Attributes will be available for a variety of standard and advanced criteria, including: How Merchants Can Use Flex Attributes: Benefits for Merchants: Looking Ahead: With Flex Attributes launching in December 2024, merchants will gain unprecedented control over collection ranking, making it easy to adapt recipes to different product types and inventory needs.

In Q4 2025, we’ll be introducing the Product Sell Through Rate (STR) as a new attribute for merchants to use in their sorting recipes and managed collections. This powerful attribute will allow merchants to prioritize products based on how efficiently they’re selling through available inventory, helping optimize merchandising strategies and improve stock management. What Is Product Sell Through Rate (STR) Attribute? The Sell Through Rate (STR) attribute will calculate how much of a product’s inventory has sold over a specific time period relative to the available stock. Merchants will be able to use this attribute in sorting recipes to promote or deprioritize products based on their sell-through performance, ensuring the most relevant products are highlighted in collections. How Merchants Will Use STR in Dynasort: Once the STR attribute is available, merchants will be able to: Benefits for Merchants: Looking Ahead: The Product Sell Through Rate (STR) attribute will be available in Q4 2025, giving merchants a new way to dynamically manage their product visibility and optimize inventory flow. As part of Dynasort’s ongoing mission to provide smarter, data-driven merchandising tools, STR will help merchants stay agile and maximize product performance with minimal manual intervention.

In Q1 2025, we’ll be releasing a new “Days of Inventory” attribute to help merchants optimize their merchandising strategies. This powerful feature will calculate how many days a product has left in stock based on its current sales rate, allowing merchants to prioritize products more effectively in their collections. What Is the “Days of Inventory” Attribute? The “Days of Inventory” attribute estimates how many days of stock a product has remaining at the current sales rate. This feature will give merchants valuable insights into when products may run out of stock, enabling proactive inventory management and smarter merchandising decisions. How Merchants Will Use It: With this new feature, merchants will be able to: Benefits for Merchants: Looking Ahead: The “Days of Inventory” feature is slated for release in Q1 2025, and it will be a key tool in helping merchants manage stock and merchandising more effectively.

We’re excited to announce a new feature coming by the end of Q4 2025—automated email digests summarizing your store’s key performance metrics. This feature will allow merchants to receive regular reports directly to their inbox, providing critical insights without needing to log in. You’ll be able to choose the frequency of the emails and add multiple recipients, ensuring your team stays informed. How It Will Work: Once released, the Email Digest feature will allow merchants to: Metrics Included in the Digest: The digest will cover key performance metrics, including: Why This Will Matter for Merchants: Release Timeline: The Email Digest feature is scheduled for release by the end of Q4 2025.
