  • Duration: 4–6 weeks for an outcome-based POC
Demand forecasting · Retail · synthetic sample

How the AI works. Forecasting models predict demand for every item and location over twelve weeks and are tested against weeks that were held back before anyone relies on them, with the error (WAPE), bias and forecast range shown openly. Planners see where the AI forecast is strong and where it is not, and the what-if carries the forecast straight into a stocking decision.

Planners can try scenarios (stronger promotion, demand up or down) and publish a reviewed forecast that Inventory then consumes.
