Whatever you sell, your dates already work this way. DateCue just acts on them.
Tag products as "new" on launch. Auto-remove the tag 14 days later. No more stale "new" badges.

Get an email before stock expires. Auto-archive products past their best-before date so they stop selling.
Auto-archive products when the drop window ends. No scrambling to pull them down manually.

Everything you need to know about DateCue.
Shopify's built-in scheduling only publishes one product at a future date. It cannot auto-unpublish, set an end date, schedule in bulk, tag, or email. DateCue does all of those. That gap is exactly what DateCue fills.
Yes. Pick a date and a set of products, all of them, or filtered by collection, tag, or type, and schedule one action across the whole set. Publish 300 products at one launch time, or set a whole collection to draft on March 1. Before you save, DateCue shows how many products the action will affect.
Yes. Set an end date and DateCue moves products to draft or archived so they stop selling, no midnight login required. This is the half Shopify's built-in scheduling can't do.
No. DateCue schedules tags, status, and visibility, not prices. For the discount itself, pair it with Shopify automatic discounts, a compare-at price, or a discount app. DateCue handles the timing and merchandising around your sale.
DateCue supports four actions: publish or hide a product (change its status between active, draft, and archived), add or remove a tag, send an email alert, and fire a webhook to an external system. Email is included from the Starter plan; webhooks are on Scale.
No. You can schedule a bulk action on a fixed date you pick, with no metafields at all. If your products already store dates in a date or date_time metafield (launch, expiry, best-before), DateCue can trigger on those too, before, on, or after each product's own date.
Yes. DateCue reads Shopify's date metafield type directly, no setup on our side beyond picking the field. A date metafield triggers at midnight (00:00) on the selected day, which is what most merchants use for expiry, best-before, and season-end dates.
Yes. DateCue also reads Shopify's date_time metafield type. A date_time metafield triggers at the exact time you set, which is what most merchants use for product launches or any time-sensitive action. You can use both types across different metafields in the same store.
No. DateCue is a fully no-code app. Pick your products, pick a date, choose an action. No scripts, no Liquid, no developer needed.
Yes. For a bulk schedule you choose the exact date and time, and DateCue fires within a minute of it. For a per-product date_time metafield it fires within a minute of the time you set; a plain date metafield triggers at midnight (00:00) on that date.
DateCue picks up the new date on the next sync (within 5 minutes) and reschedules automatically. The old scheduled action is cancelled and replaced with one based on the updated date. You can also hit Sync Now to pick up the change immediately.
A cue is one scheduled action applied to one product. A 300-product bulk publish is 300 cues; an expiry rule firing on 40 products this month is 40 cues. Free includes 100 cues/month, Starter 10,000, and Scale 100,000. You pay for the work done, not for seats or the number of workflows.
