The problem pattern
One national plan governing thousands of very different stores: spoilage in some regions, empty shelves in others, and planners who cannot possibly tune each site by hand.
How our agents attack it
Per-store forecasting agents run in the chain's cloud, writing directly into replenishment. The planning team reviews exceptions, not spreadsheets.
Designed outcome
Designed to cut fresh waste by more than a quarter, raise availability, and move planning granularity from region to shelf — daily.
This page describes an engineered deployment pattern, not a real engagement. Profiles are representative, and all figures are design targets used to size the architecture. Verified live metrics for our own operation are published on the autonomy page.
