📋 Manuell prosess

Manual reordering involves a manager manually checking stock levels against a spreadsheet or physical shelf, then guessing future demand based on last month's sales. They then spend hours logging into multiple supplier portals to place orders, often over-ordering 'just in case' or missing items entirely.

🤖 AI-prosess

AI connects to your POS and sales data to predict demand based on seasonality, local trends, and lead times. It generates draft purchase orders automatically when stock hits a dynamic 'smart threshold' and pushes them to your suppliers after a quick 2-minute human sign-off.

Pennys vurdering

Most businesses are accidentally running a museum of dead stock because they use 'gut feeling' to reorder. Inventory is just cash that can't pay your rent. AI changes the game by moving from reactive reordering—buying because you ran out—to predictive replenishment. It sees the 15% spike in demand coming three weeks before you do because it's looking at correlations you'd miss, like the relationship between weather patterns and specific SKU velocities. However, don't let the 'set and forget' dream fool you. AI is brilliant at math but terrible at context. It doesn't know if your main competitor just closed down or if a TikTok influencer is about to trash your flagship product. Use AI to handle the 90% of predictable churn, but keep a human eye on the 'black swan' events. The goal here isn't just saving time; it's about liberating the 20-30% of working capital currently rotting in your warehouse.

Ofte stilte spørsmål

Will the AI accidentally order 10,000 units by mistake?+
Not if you set 'guardrails'. Every reputable AI inventory tool allows you to set maximum order quantities and requires a human 'approval' click before the Purchase Order is sent to the supplier. You keep the final veto.
Can AI handle seasonal spikes like Black Friday?+
Yes, and it's significantly better at it than humans. AI looks at multi-year historical data to identify exactly when the ramp-up starts, ensuring you have stock on the shelf the day the rush begins, not three days later.
Do I need to replace my whole ERP system?+
Usually, no. Modern tools like Inventory Planner or Stocky plug directly into your existing Shopify, Amazon, or Xero accounts via API. They act as a 'brain' sitting on top of your existing data.
What happens if my supplier's lead times change?+
This is where AI shines. It tracks actual supplier performance vs. promised lead times. If a supplier starts taking 14 days instead of 10, the AI automatically adjusts your 'reorder point' to account for the delay.
Is it worth it for a small business with only 50 SKUs?+
If those 50 SKUs represent more than £10,000 in tied-up capital, yes. The cost of the software (approx £30-£100/mo for small scales) is usually covered by the reduction in overstocking within the first 90 days.
