What It Does

End-to-end demand intelligence from data ingestion to actionable forecasts.

Time-Series Forecasting

Multi-horizon demand prediction using temporal fusion transformers and ensemble methods. Models seasonality, trends, cyclical patterns, and exogenous variables across daily, weekly, and monthly granularity.

Scenario Modeling

Monte Carlo simulation and what-if analysis for strategic planning. Model the impact of price changes, promotions, supply disruptions, market entry, and economic shifts on demand curves.

Inventory Optimization

Dynamic safety stock, reorder point, and replenishment schedule optimization. Balances holding costs against stockout risk using probabilistic demand distributions and lead time variability.

Market Signal Ingestion

Integrates external signals — competitor pricing, weather data, economic indicators, social media trends, and search volume — into demand models for improved forecast accuracy.

Auto-Retraining Pipeline

Continuous model monitoring with automated drift detection and retraining. When forecast accuracy degrades, the system retrains on recent data and validates before deployment — no manual intervention.

Anomaly Detection

Statistical and ML-based anomaly detection for demand spikes, drops, and structural breaks. Distinguishes between genuine demand changes and data quality issues to prevent forecast corruption.

Architecture

The ML pipeline from raw data to production forecasts.
