Clear aged stock with confidence. Protect the margin you can still recover.
The Margin Recovery Agent will model every aged style at three markdown depths, recommend the channel and timing, check your GTM calendar for conflicts, and project the revenue recovered — so clearance is decided against a financial picture rather than a gut call.
This agent is currently in development and ships into the Growth plan on release. Pulse, the Style Action Agent and the OTB Agent are live today.

Illustrative design. Figures are examples, not client data.
The problem it solves
Clearance is usually decided in an ad hoc meeting, from a stock report, on instinct.
Nobody has modelled the margin impact at different depths. Nobody has checked whether the markdown conflicts with an upcoming campaign. Nobody has projected how long the stock takes to clear at that depth.
The result is one of two failures. Too aggressive, and margin is destroyed when a shallower cut would have moved the stock anyway. Too conservative, and it carries into the next season at full cost.
What the recommendation will cover
For every aged style, three markdown depths will be modelled — conservative, standard and aggressive. Each option shows the retail revenue recovered, the gross margin percentage achieved, and the margin dollars retained versus surrendered, so the trade-off is visible before the decision is made.
Constrained by design
Your margin posture shapes every recommendation.
A retailer committed to full-price integrity gets different clearance guidance than one prioritising volume exit.
A business with a full-price anchor will not receive a recommendation for a 50% site-wide markdown, even where that would clear the stock fastest. It will get a shallower depth through a targeted channel that holds brand positioning. The modelling is the same — the constraints reflect what the business has said it stands for.
The agent does not optimise for clearance speed. It optimises for clearance within the boundaries you have set.
