Forecast and inventory risk diagnostic.

Upload one product's historical demand and test how a forecasting baseline translates into service and inventory risk.

A forecast readiness check, not a forecasting tool alone.

  • What it checks. Your demand history line by line: whether the periods are complete, whether the units stay the same, and what shape the demand actually takes.
  • What it tells you. Which lines a forecast can be trusted on, which are waiting on a decision from you, and which no forecasting method will ever fix.
  • What it refuses to do. Guess. Where the data is ambiguous it declines to forecast the line and names the answer it needs from you.
  • What happens to your file. It is processed for this request and not deliberately retained. The confidential record of a run stays in your browser until you download it.

Use synthetic or anonymised data only. Files are processed for the current request and are not deliberately retained by this application.

Required columns: sku, date, demand. Minimum 12 periods.

Demand trend and planning scenario

History in black, AI forecast in orange and any context adjustment in blue.

Projected inventory position

Expected inventory after forecast demand and confirmed inbound supply.

AI management interpretation

    AI-generated forecast interpretation. Validate demand assumptions, confirmed supply and operational context before acting.

    Forecast back-test

    Simple forecasting methods are tested against withheld demand history. The strongest baseline is selected using the lowest WAPE.

    Portfolio diagnostic

    Prioritise exceptions across multiple SKUs.

    Validate demand history first. If the file also contains inventory and supply inputs, the diagnostic can then rank service and working-capital exposure.

    Validation requires: sku, date, demand. Inventory analysis also requires: inventory, receipts, safety_stock.

    Can this file be used?

    Whether the file can be read and trusted at all, and what would have to change if not.

    Data quality portrait

    Where does context matter?

    What the demand history is like, line by line, before anything is forecast.

    Demand classification

    What kind of demand is this?

    What shape each line's demand has, and how much of your volume it carries.

    Run data quality to classify the portfolio.

    Forecast routing

    Which lines may be forecast?

    Which lines may be forecast, which may not, and why.

    Run data quality to route the portfolio.

    Open items

    What is waiting on you?

    The lines that cannot move until you answer something, biggest first.

    Run data quality to list the open items.

    Forecast

    What can be forecast?

    What is ready to model once the open items are settled.

    Run provenance

    What produced this result?

    What produced this result, and what you need to reproduce it.

      Portable run record

      Keep, reopen or reproduce a completed run.

      The manifest is the proof and is safe to keep anywhere. The bundle is the evidence and belongs to the client.

      A run bundle contains client data, including SKU identifiers, metrics, findings and forecast values. Treat it as confidential and do not share it like a manifest.

      Reopen a recorded run

      Reopening happens entirely in this browser. The bundle never leaves your device, and no result is recalculated or changed.

      Reproduce a recorded run

      Reproduce deliberately runs the source again and compares the new evidence with the recorded bundle.
