Supercharge the supply and demand cycle to maximize profit
Demand AI presents a game-changing opportunity for merchandisers and traders. It helps enhance their day-to-day roles, blending creativity with science to supercharge a retail business’s merchandising, buying, and planning processes.
Too often, merchandising teams will find themselves entrenched in legacy processes and disparate business systems, spending too long number-crunching in spreadsheets rather than focusing on creative strategy.
By leveraging data from across a retailer’s entire value chain—including website analytics, search, and behavioral data previously not surfaced to merchandisers—AI can be utilized to grow sales and increase profits through a holistic view of demand per SKU, intelligent predictions, and smart optimizations. Demand AI helps teams plan for profit, enabling retailers to make smarter buying decisions, optimize stock, and execute the perfect pricing strategy.

Demand AI makes it possible to predict demand in granular detail, at scale. It then enables any business to act on the demand signals to efficiently manage stock and pricing—leading to increased profits and efficient use of capital. Crucially, Demand AI and the actions it generates can support and empower merchandising teams, giving them more time to focus on the creative aspects of their role and less time number-crunching in spreadsheets.
