It's back in stock. They've already bought it somewhere else.
When stock lands, a managed voice agent calls the people who asked to be told — while the intent is still real. A waitlist is only worth something if you reach it first.
THE WAITLIST PROBLEM
A waitlist is a queue of people you already convinced.
They found the product, chose it, and tried to buy it. The only thing that stopped them was you not having it. That is the warmest demand in your entire business — and the standard way of handling it is a templated email sent to everyone at once, landing in a promotions tab, hours or days after the shelf refilled. The people who wanted it most are the people most likely to have solved the problem elsewhere by then. Restock demand doesn't wait politely. It decays.
Illustrative — demand decay shown conceptually, not from measured data.
From restock to reserved
Who gets called first, how long a unit is held, and how many calls a restock triggers are your rules, set during onboarding. We build it on your stock data and run it for you.
What a restock call sounds like
Example call
Hi Elena, Sabato calling for VeloStore. You asked to be told when the CityRider 500 came back in — it landed this morning.
Oh! I'd almost given up. How many have you got?
Six, and I can hold one under your name for twenty-four hours while you decide.
Is it the version with the bigger battery?
This batch is the 20Ah, yes — the one you were looking at. Shall I hold it?
Please. Can you send me the link?
Held under your name until tomorrow morning, and the checkout link is on its way to your phone now.
Products, stock levels and hold windows here are illustrative. The agent works from your live stock data and only holds what your rules allow.
Reach them before the inbox does
An email competes with forty others and waits for the customer to check it. A call arrives at the moment the stock does, and it can hold the unit while they think — something no notification email has ever been able to do.
The list also tells you the truth
Every 'no thanks, I bought it elsewhere' is data your restock report never captures: how long your waitlist actually holds, and which products lose customers to a stockout instead of just delaying them.
Start with a pilot, not a promise
We don't quote you a recapture rate invented in a slide deck. A Sabato pilot calls a real restock list against your existing email notification as the baseline, and shows you both conversion numbers side by side. If calling doesn't beat sending, you walk away.
