The Challenge

What makes demand forecasting hard today

Unrealistic expectations
Forecasting models are overly optimistic, leading to over-investment in inventory and subsequent write-downs.
Lack of granular insight
Aggregate data conceals local demand drivers, making it impossible to tailor inventory to specific store needs.
Inadequate competitor analysis
Manual analysis of competitors' pricing, promotions, and inventory levels is time-consuming and often inaccurate.
Insufficient data quality
Incomplete, inconsistent, or missing data points lead to inaccurate forecasts and poor business decisions.
