Comparison
Stocklet vs Klaviyo for back in stock
Klaviyo is a full email and SMS marketing platform with a back-in-stock flow built in. Stocklet is a focused restock app that does one job — turn sold-out demand into a paid order — and it feeds Klaviyo rather than replacing it. The honest framing: most stores run Stocklet for the back-in-stock job and let it sync new signups straight into their Klaviyo lists and flows.

Why teams choose Stocklet
This isn't really an either/or. Klaviyo is excellent at what it does — broad lifecycle email and SMS — and Stocklet is built to feed it. From the $9 Starter plan, every new waitlist signup fires a 'Subscribed to Back in Stock' event into Klaviyo carrying the email, product title, image, price, and IDs, so your existing flows take over.
Where Stocklet is specifically better is the back-in-stock moment itself. The restock email links into a pre-filled Shopify checkout for the exact variant rather than dropping the shopper on the product page, and attribution ties the resulting order back to the signup via a hidden cart attribute — recovered dollars, not platform-wide estimates.
And the cost curve is different. Stocklet is priced flatly by alert volume rather than by contact count, so a focused restock workflow doesn't pull you up Klaviyo's profile-based tiers. Start on the permanent free plan, prove the recovered revenue, and keep Klaviyo for everything else.
Send shoppers to checkout, not back to the product page.
