One plan from financial target to store shelf

Cortex is an AI-native merchandise planning platform for fashion, footwear, lifestyle and multi-brand retailers. It unifies financial planning, buying, allocation, replenishment and space planning in a single engine so that every decision from budget to shelf reflects the same plan.

Generic platforms model inventory as a commodity. Cortex understands retail-specific dimensions — style, colour, size, store cluster, and season — and builds those into every model, algorithm and exception rule. You get retail depth out of the box, not a generic engine you configure for years.

Yes. Financial plans, buying budgets, allocation decisions and space plans all sit on a single data layer. Change a target in MFP and the impact flows to OTB, allocation and space automatically — no manual bridging, no versioning errors.

Yes. Cortex is modular by design. Most customers start with the area causing the biggest pain — typically OTB & buying or inventory allocation — and expand into adjacent modules as they see results. The shared data model means every new module you add benefits from the data already in the system.

Cortex connects to major ERPs (SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics), WMS platforms, and POS systems via pre-built connectors and a configurable API layer. Data flows both ways so Cortex plans are always grounded in live actuals.

A single-module go-live typically takes 8–12 weeks. Full platform deployment across all modules runs 16–24 weeks depending on data complexity and integration scope. Cortex is designed for fast onboarding — no six-month configuration projects.

Cortex's pullback trigger ranking continuously scores every underperforming style by age, size-set completeness and rate-of-sale deviation against plan. It surfaces ranked exceptions daily so your team knows exactly which stock to pull, transfer or mark down — and how much margin you recover by acting now.
