The modern way to manage on-shelf availability
We use AI to detect and fix inventory inaccuracies and out-of-stocks, so store employees can focus on what matters the most: the customer

THE AKURET AVAILABILITY PLATFORM
Akuret's out-of-the-box, cloud-based, availability platform helps retailers smoothly transition into omni-channel business models, by ensuring accurate data is used internally and displayed to online consumers, that shelves are restocked on time, and that store personnel can focus their time not on counting products but on helping customers. The platform comes with several modules, all built to guarantee fast and simple integration with all major ERP-systems and POS-systems, including IFS, SAP, Navision and others.
Analytics
Track on-shelf availability and inspections for all products in all stores in the retail network; drill down to view stores, categories, or SKUs.
Visibility
Automatically display the most accurate and up-to-date product availability information to customers in all online channels.
Audit
Simplify, optimize and automate all cycle counts, promotion inspections, alerts, and audits using predictive analytics and optimization.

WHY WE SUCCEED WHERE OTHERS HAVE FAILED
Inventory levels in ERP systems are notoriously inaccurate. Computed from registered transactions, in-store events affecting inventory such as theft, misplacement, obsolesence and registration errors, are not accounted for. To adjust the computed levels, employees do time-consuming inspections, counts and audits several times per year per product.
We choose a different approach. Instead of relying on inaccurate computations that are manually corrected, we use AI to make a much more accurate computation of the inventory availability. This minimizes the need for stock-taking. Remaining inspections are then optimized to make sure adjustments are made only when it makes business sense: when it leads to higher availability and when they are fast to perform.
The end result: more accurate data, higher on-shelf availability, and less time spent on manual inspections. And as a by-product: unprecedented intelligence to help improve in-store execution.
”Employees spend thousands of hours counting stuff because the systems do not capture reality.
Through the use of smart AI, we let systems get an accurate picture of reality, and minimize time spent on counting”
