What is AssortSmart

AI-Native Assortment Planning

AssortSmart is AI-native assortment planning software that continuously aligns product ranges with customer demand across stores and channels. Through autonomous orchestration, it keeps clustering, range depth, product mix, line planning, and buy decisions connected to demand, inventory, and financial targets while bringing planners in where human judgment adds value.
Every Assortment Decision Connects to the Next
Store groups, range depth, option counts, carry-forwards, and buy decisions all influence one another. AssortSmart orchestrates them as one assortment strategy, so a change in one part of the plan carries through the decisions that depend on it.
Assortments Built on Actual Demand
Store groupings, range depth, and product mix are shaped by real demand signals and product performance, helping each location carry the assortment its customers are most likely to buy.
One Connected Path from Range to Buy
Range strategy, line architecture, option counts, and buy recommendations stay synchronized, reducing the manual reconciliation between assortment planning and inventory commitment.
Planner Control at Every Step
Every recommended change is explainable and reviewable. Routine, low-risk decisions can execute automatically within administrator-defined guardrails, while exceptions stay staged for planner approval.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does AssortSmart decide which products belong in each store?

AssortSmart groups stores by demand patterns and product performance, then builds the range for each group based on what customers actually buy there. Every recommendation is supported by the demand and performance data behind it so merchandisers can review the decision before committing the assortment.

How does store clustering work?

AssortSmart groups stores using sales patterns, customer demand, product performance, and relevant store characteristics. Each cluster is statistically evaluated, giving teams confidence in the grouping before assortment decisions are built around it.

How does AssortSmart help with carry-forward decisions?

The AI assortment planning agent evaluates prior-season products against sales, margin, sell-through, and consistency across store groups, recommending which items to carry forward, which to reduce, and which to remove from the next assortment.

Can AssortSmart run assortment decisions automatically?

Yes, within the guardrails your administrators define. Routine, low-risk decisions can execute automatically and remain logged and reversible. Decisions outside those limits stay staged for merchandiser review.

What data does AssortSmart use to plan the range?

AssortSmart evaluates historical performance, current sell-through, demand signals, inventory position, product attributes, store-group behavior, and financial targets. Recommendations remain traceable to the evidence behind them.
