Merchandise Planning AI
We map the planning cycle and capture the logic behind forecasting, buying and allocation, then design assistants that do the routine analysis so planners decide on a current, trusted picture.
Planners spend the week assembling sell-through, stock, forecast and allocation data instead of shaping the plan, and the judgment behind good calls isn't captured anywhere a system can use.
