Inventory & suppliers

Plan inventory without over- or under-buying

Overstock traps cash; stockouts lose sales and rank. Forecast from real sell-through, set a reorder point per SKU, and hold a safety buffer sized to lead time.

Inventory is a cash and demand balancing act: too much traps money in unsold stock, too little loses sales and (on marketplaces) ranking. The method is forecasting from real sell-through, a reorder point per SKU built on lead time, and a safety buffer for variability. AI does the math from your numbers; it never invents your sales or lead times.
