The reliable spine
The non-AI spine is the source-linked workflow: clean records, rules, calculations, integrations, exception queues, approvals and reporting for Launch new products without the waste.
FMCG & Packaged Food
FMCG lives on new SKUs, pack sizes and festival editions, and most houses run launches on enthusiasm, leaving a graveyard of dead SKUs each dragging working capital and expiry risk.
Who has it
Packaged-food and snack manufacturers and bakery, confectionery and ready-to-eat producers most, since both live on new SKUs, pack sizes and festival editions; also beverage and dairy makers, and lighter for the depot and super-stockist.
What we build
A simple, tracked launch gate (idea, cost, trial, launch, review) with a person signing off at each stage and a margin floor set before packaging is ordered, plus a product-list clean-up that ranks every SKU by true earning, sales speed and expiry drag so the long tail gets pruned or re-priced. Delist and prune decisions go to a person.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
The reliable spine
The non-AI spine is the source-linked workflow: clean records, rules, calculations, integrations, exception queues, approvals and reporting for Launch new products without the waste.
Where AI helps
AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Launch new products without the waste; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
Fewer dead SKUs, a cleaner launch calendar, and freed-up cash.
Illustrative outcome
A pruned long tail, fewer dead-SKU write-offs, and freed working capital. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
