Looking for clear answers about speed to shelf? Below we cover the most common questions retailers, CPG brands, and distributors ask about our speed to shelf services.

What’s the difference between your service and in-store stock checks?
Most store-level checks are surface-level and unverified. We conduct deep-dive SKU counts, verify product facings, and capture shelf photos — then provide reports back to your HQ or brand team.

Can you trigger reorders or work within our ordering system?
Yes. You train us on your systems, and how and when you want orders placed. We help trigger restocks, place orders on the spot, and flag any issues — all in real time, so nothing falls through the cracks.
-
How do you verify product placement?
We use our proprietary InStore Reporter platform to provide live photo verification, compliance rates, and real-time dashboards.

What kind of reporting will I receive?
You’ll get real-time access to photo reports, location-specific compliance notes, and daily progress updates through our proprietary InStore Reporter platform.
