Common Inefficiencies in Retail Supply Chains
Traditional ecommerce systems miss hidden inefficiencies in inventory, order execution, and fulfillment — impacting revenue, stock availability, and fulfillment speed.
The missing link in these systems is unstructured data sources that contain crucial insights.
Control Towers, for example, rely on structured data from WMS, OMS, TMS, etc., but aren't able to handle unstructured data like SOPs, CCTV, CRM notes, and facility layouts.
This leads to issues like stockouts and fulfillment failures that hurt customer experience.
Manually researching issues is often frustrating and time-consuming. And the longer problems persist, the more expensive they become.
But AI-powered data agents are perfect for unlocking hidden patterns from unstructured data, quickly finding root causes, and making cost-saving recommendations.

The Business Impact: Increased Profitability & Efficiency
AI-driven insights that lead to real-world improvements in inventory accuracy and fulfillment speed are proven to prevent revenue loss.
In one Harvard case study, German e-commerce retailer OTTO was able to achieve 90% accuracy in 30-day sales predictions, a 20% reduction in inventory waste while maintaining product availability, and improved operational efficiencies from automated replenishments, for a $15M+ revenue impact.
When two national grocery chains tested AI solutions across 1300+ stores, they saw a 15-25% reduction in food waste and an 18% decrease in stockouts despite pandemic-driven ecommerce spikes.
And H&M retail was able to use AI to more accurately forecast trends and optimize inventory placement, reducing lead times by 40% and cutting waste by 35% while reducing stockouts.
