Retail
Cloud Data Platform
Predicting customer preferences is a crucial aspect of any retailer’s success. With the help of AI, products can be categorized and customer history can be analyzed to predict their next purchase. But what’s next?
Consumer Products
Search Relevance
Again utilizing the millions of searching and buying data points generated by online consumers, a reliable search engine is the first step in retention and satisfaction. A search engine must act as the online sales representative, directing the shopper to exactly the item they were looking for. And through machine learning, as the system sees more searches and hit results, it will continuously improve its output.
Wholesale & Distribution
Inventory Management
Artificial intelligence can be used for more than just customer interaction. Connect your inventory database to a machine learning system to improve the processes through which inventory is managed and re-stocked as well as predict when certain products will be in high demand and ensure that you can be prepared accordingly.
Wholesale & Distribution
Supply Chain
Almost every modern consumer product provider is vertically oriented, in that their product passes through many different stages and in many cases through several different enterprises, before the final product is ready to be sold to the public. Artificial intelligence helps to integrate that supply chain and make it more manageable for all parties, limiting carrying costs and conveying information in real time across stages of production.
How Dayton Analytics can help
We help harness the power of artificial intelligence, drive digital transformation and build digital teams via our future of work approach to knowledge worker alignment.
