Orca — Vendor orders, read straight into Shopify
Built for wholesale buyers onShopify

Every vendor order,
read straight into Shopify.

Drop in any wholesale confirmation — a PDF, a spreadsheet, or a photo from your phone — and Orca reads every product, variant, and cost into draft Shopify products. Then receive it, sync inventory, and manage the whole buy.

Add Orca to Shopify See how it works

For any Shopify merchant who buys wholesale — across every category you carry.

The problem

Buying more shouldn't mean typing more.

Every vendor sends confirmations in their own format — dozens of products, each split into colors, sizes, or packs, each with its own cost and quantity. Someone hand-keys all of it into Shopify, vendor by vendor, season after season.

  • Every vendor's layout is different — and none of them match Shopify.
  • Seasonal buys land all at once, and the keying piles up fast.
  • One mistyped size or cost quietly corrupts your inventory.
  • New arrivals sit in limbo until someone has time to build them.
How it works

Add a vendor once. Then every order reads itself.

  1. 01

    Add a vendor, once

    Add a vendor and tell Orca what they sell. Orca reads their orders the right way for the category — apparel by size and color, wine by vintage, hardware by spec.

  2. 02

    Drop or snap any order

    Upload a PDF, spreadsheet, or Word doc — or scan it with your phone camera. Orca reads the whole order into a structured PO, every line mapped to proper variants and costs.

  3. 03

    Review, correct, push

    Check Orca's work, fix anything in plain English, and push it to Shopify as draft products. Orca remembers your corrections for that vendor next time.

The whole buy, in one place

Not just order entry — your entire wholesale workflow.

  1. Intake

    Read any vendor order into a draft purchase order.

  2. Draft products

    Products, variants, and costs land in Shopify as drafts.

  3. Receive

    Check in the shipment; drafts flip to active and inventory goes live.

  4. Returns

    Send stock back to a vendor and Orca pulls it from Shopify too.

  5. Payments

    Track costs, payment terms, trade discounts, and vendor credit.

1 min Receive a shipment and watch inventory go live in Shopify.

What's in the pod

Built for the way wholesale buyers actually work.

Reads any format

PDF, spreadsheet, Word, or a phone photo — Orca reads the whole order automatically. No templates, no field-mapping.

Tailored to each vendor's catalog

Classify a vendor once and Orca reads their orders the right way for what they sell.

Gets smarter as you go

Correct a mistake in plain English and Orca remembers it for that vendor next time.

Snap it with your phone

Scan a paper order with your phone camera; it lands on your review screen in seconds.

Proper nested variants

Sizes, colors, and options map into real Shopify variant structures — not flat lists.

Packing-slip receiving

Check in a shipment and Orca flips products draft → active and syncs on-hand inventory.

Live two-way Shopify sync

Products and inventory stay in step with Shopify, both directions.

Reorders, handled

Reorder an existing product and Orca updates only what changed — cost and price — leaving the rest.

Ship-to locations

Track which location each order was bought for.

Retail pricing, automated

Set a markup rule and Orca prices new products from cost as it builds them.

Payments & vendor credit

Record payments, apply terms and trade discounts, and carry vendor credit across orders.

Why Orca

A whole season's buy, built before your coffee's cold.

The same stack of vendor confirmations, two ways. One is days of hand-keying. The other is drop it, review, and sync.

Add Orca to Shopify
Without Orca ~30–45 min hand-keying one multi-variant order
  • Retype every variant by hand
  • Re-read each vendor's format every time
  • Hope nothing got transposed
With Orca ~5 min drop it, review & sync
  • Orca reads the whole order
  • Every vendor read the right way
  • Draft products waiting in Shopify
The impact

Less admin on every order — and every delivery.

Orca compresses the two most time-consuming parts of a wholesale buy — entering the order and receiving it into inventory — into a few minutes each. Here's what that looks like in practice.

~5min to enter a vendor order was ~30–45 min by hand
~2min to receive a delivery was ~45 min of inventory edits
~85% less time keying & receiving across a full season's buy
✓ you review before it syncs no blind hand-keying

Times are estimates for a typical multi-variant vendor order and delivery; your numbers vary with catalog size, document format, and how much you review. Order entry and receiving both run inside Orca and sync straight to Shopify.

Stop typing orders. Start landing them.

Add Orca to your store, drop in your next vendor confirmation, and watch it become draft Shopify products — ready to receive.
