Ground · 02

The operational work, handled.

Ground is the execution layer beneath Pulse. Three AI agents that run automatically each week — reading your trading data, applying your strategic anchors, and producing structured briefs that replace hours of manual buying and merchandising analysis.

Get started→

Pulse tells you what to decide. Ground handles what follows.

The Pulse brief surfaces the insight — sell-through is tracking below plan, aged stock is building, the reorder window on your top styles closes this week. That intelligence belongs at the executive layer. The analysis that supports acting on it belongs somewhere else.

Ground agents do that analysis automatically. Every agent runs off the same trading data that feeds Pulse, applies your stated margin posture and strategic anchors, and produces a structured brief for the relevant buyer or planner. No manual exports. No spreadsheet rebuilds. No decisions made on gut feel because nobody had time to run the numbers.

The executive sees a summary in Pulse. The buying team gets the full detail from Ground. Both happen automatically, every week.

The agents

Style Action Agent

Beta→

Reorder and markdown decisioning

For: Fashion and apparel retailers

Runs: Weekly

For retailers running a test-and-reorder buying model, the entire business depends on catching winners early and cutting losers fast. The Style Action Agent reads every active style weekly and tells the buyer which styles to reorder — and which to mark down — before the window closes.

Saves

2–4 hours of manual buying analysis per week

Output

Reorder candidates ranked by urgency, reorder window close date, recommended quantity. Clear list with margin impact at each markdown depth.

OTB Agent

Beta→

Open-to-buy planning

For: Planned-buying retailers — boutiques, homewares, multi-channel

Runs: Monthly

The OTB Agent calculates your open-to-buy position by brand each month as actuals land — telling the GM which brands have budget to deploy, which are overcommitted, and whether the season trajectory suggests the overall budget needs revising. The analysis that currently takes half a day to build manually.

Saves

Half a day of monthly spreadsheet work

Output

OTB remaining by brand, on-order reconciliation, aged stock flags, season position versus plan.

Margin Recovery Agent

Beta→

Clearance and margin optimisation

For: All retailers with aged stock or end-of-season clearance

Runs: Weekly / triggered

Every retailer has aged stock and clearance decisions to make. The Margin Recovery Agent models each aged style at three markdown depths, recommends the right channel for clearance, checks the GTM calendar for conflicts, and projects the revenue recovery over a four-week window — so the decision is made with the full financial picture rather than gut feel.

Saves

Ad hoc clearance decisions replaced with modelled recommendations

Output

Markdown depth options with margin recovery projections, channel recommendation, timing flag, GTM calendar conflict check.

More agents in development. The Ground suite will expand to cover additional retail operating functions — marketing execution, paid media pacing, and category-specific planning agents. Each new agent slots into Growth tier when it ships.

Every agent recommendation is constrained by your stated strategy.

A margin-protection retailer gets different markdown recommendations than a growth-led retailer — even with identical sell-through data. A retailer committed to full-price integrity will see that reflected in how the Margin Recovery Agent stages its clearance recommendations. The strategic anchors you set in onboarding aren't just context for Pulse. They are the decision rules every Ground agent operates within.

The agents don't just run numbers. They run numbers within the constraints of what your business has said it stands for.

Your team should be making decisions. Not building the analysis behind them.
