Retailers and e-commerce businesses face inventory challenges due to inaccurate demand forecasting, leading to overstocking, understocking, and lost sales opportunities. 

Our AI-Powered Demand Forecasting System predicts future demand by analyzing historical sales, seasonality trends, and customer behavior, ensuring optimized inventory management and improved revenue forecasting.
