Atina
Demand forecasting and order suggestion for retail. From day-by-day sales history it says how much to order today of each product, in cases rather than in the abstract.
Order exactly enough — no stockouts, no capital tied up
The problem
How much do I order today of each product so I neither run short nor end up with stock that expires? Getting it wrong costs in both directions: order too little and you lose the sale and the customer; order too much and the product expires while your capital sits still in the storeroom.
How it solves it
Atina learns from day-by-day sales history and estimates how much will sell before the supplier's next delivery. It accounts for the day of the week, the position within the month, the recent trend, public holidays and the lead time. The output is not a chart: it is "order two cases today", rounded to the real purchase unit and accompanied by the reason in plain language.

Today's decision
- “order 2 cases”
- with the reason
What it does
Explainable forecast
Day of the week, position within the month, trend and holidays. Every suggestion arrives with its reason, not a number "just because".
Suggestion in purchase units
In cases or blisters, the way you actually buy from the distributor, with safety stock computed from the lead time.
Multi-store and multi-company
Every product, sale and administrator belongs to a store, and every store to a company, with isolation between them.
Stock ledger
A movement ledger with a running balance per entry: purchase, sale, transfer, adjustment, shrinkage and return. Stock can be recomputed from the ledger.
Minimum and maximum policies
The system computes them and the user adjusts or freezes them. They feed the consolidated order to the central warehouse and the distribution between branches.
Value-for-money supplier
Price history per supplier and a score weighing price, stability, track record and trend. It may recommend the one that is not the cheapest, and explains why.
Who it is for
Retailers with perishable or uneven-turnover inventory — pharmacies, convenience stores, distributors — who today decide the order on the instinct of whoever has spent years behind the counter.
