Public roadmap

What's coming next to Ardent Seller

Ardent Seller is tracking 24 upcoming features across three priority levels — in active development, planned, and under consideration.

Every roadmap item below is pulled from the same feature catalog that drives our features page and competitor comparisons. Items move between Coming soon, Planned, and Under consideration as work progresses — and into the features page once they ship.

Last updated

Coming soon (0)

Active development — we expect these to ship within the next release cycle. Designs are in hand and at least part of the work is on the branch.

Nothing in this bucket right now. Items move through here as our priorities shift.

Planned (2)

Committed and on the roadmap. Scope and design are mostly settled, but coding work has not started or is still early. Timing depends on what's already in flight.

Why Ardent Seller

·1 item

AI Import Concierge

Planned

Switching from another tool? Upload whatever export it gives you — Craftybase CSVs, an Inventora export, or a messy multi-tab spreadsheet — and AI maps it into a working Ardent Seller account: materials, products, recipes, vendors, customers, and opening stock, cross-linked and previewed for your approval. Nothing writes until you confirm, and every migration can be rolled back.

Planned scope: Privacy-first by design: the AI only ever sees your column headers and a few sample rows — never your full files. It proposes how your old tool's data maps into Ardent Seller, then everything is checked against your actual files and shown to you for review — you see exactly what will be created, fix anything that looks off, and nothing is written until you approve. Every migration can be undone afterward. A migration brings over your whole catalog — materials, products, recipes, vendors, and customers — with your current stock levels as the starting point (order-by-order history import is planned as a follow-up). Like every AI feature, it can be turned off in Account Preferences

Marketplace Integrations

·1 item

Shopify Integration

Planned

Link your Shopify store to automatically import sales, customer data, and sync inventory levels across both platforms.

Planned scope: Bi-directional sync: orders flow in, inventory updates push back; supports Shopify multi-location if you have multiple warehouses

Under consideration (22)

On our radar but not yet committed. We're collecting demand, validating the design, and weighing it against everything else. Customer feedback moves things up this list.

Never Run Out (or Over-Order)

·1 item

Partial Receiving

Considering

Planned scope: Record received quantities per delivery; automatically track backorder status; multiple receipts per PO

Recipes & Production

·4 items

AI-powered Recipe Cost Optimizer

Considering

Reduce costs without sacrificing quality with AI-powered ingredient suggestions — find substitutions when materials run low or prices spike, while maintaining your product standards.

Planned scope: Suggests smart alternatives based on what you have in stock and current ingredient prices, respects allergen and dietary constraints, and understands baker's percentages

Order Boards

Considering

Visualize work in progress on drag-and-drop boards — manage purchase orders, production runs, and sales orders by moving cards through your custom workflow stages.

Planned scope: Drag-and-drop cards to track orders from "New" to "In Progress" to "Ready to Ship." Customize columns to match how you work — whether that's by order status, market date, or customer

Product Disassembly

Considering

Production Scheduling

Considering

Stay on top of orders with scheduled production runs that ensure you have the right products ready at the right time without overproducing.

Customers & Vendors

·1 item

Payment Terms & Credit Management

Considering

Manage wholesale customer credit limits and payment terms (net 30/60/90) while monitoring outstanding balances for better cash flow control.

How this roadmap works

A short, honest read so you know what to expect.

Where does this list come from?

Every item on this page is drawn from the same feature catalog that powers our pricing, features, and competitor comparison pages. When an item ships, its status flips from "Coming soon" to "Included" and it leaves this page automatically. Nothing here is hand-curated marketing copy — it is the live engineering backlog as we are willing to share it.

What do the three statuses mean?

"Coming soon" means active development — designs are in hand and code is in flight. "Planned" means committed work that has not yet started or is very early. "Under consideration" means we are still validating the design and weighing it against everything else; it is the bucket most influenced by customer feedback.

When will a specific item ship?

We do not publish target dates on individual items because every honest roadmap that ships dates ends up apologizing for them. The order within each bucket roughly reflects priority, and items move up the list when paying customers ask for them.

How do I influence what's prioritized?

The single most effective thing you can do is tell us via the contact form which item is blocking you and why. We weight requests from active customers heavily — both flat-rate and pay-as-you-go — and we re-rank "Under consideration" every release cycle.

Will roadmap features cost extra when they ship?

No. Ardent Seller ships every feature on every plan, including the free plan. That commitment applies to roadmap items too — when a feature graduates from this page to the live product, it is available on every tier (subject only to the same plan-level limits on transactions, users, locations, and storage that already apply today).

Why are some integrations only "under consideration"?

Marketplace connectors are expensive to build and maintain. We promote them up the roadmap based on the size of the audience that asks for them and on each marketplace's API quality. See the cards above for the current status of each connector — they move up the list when we hear consistent demand.

Have a request?

Tell us what to build next

Customer feedback is the single biggest driver of what moves from considering to planned to coming soon. If a missing feature is blocking you — or you have a sharper version of one of the items above — let us know.
