Build machine-learning demand forecasts from sales history and external drivers, test scenarios, and support procurement planning in Mentana’s Demand Forecasting Studio.
What is Mentana?
Mentana’s Demand Forecasting Studio builds product-demand forecasts from a company’s sales history and external drivers such as weather, holidays, tariffs, exchange rates and inflation. Its machine-learning models adapt to business context, while a reusable pipeline retrieves data, continues learning and produces forecasts on a predefined schedule.
Planning teams can use what-if scenarios to compare demand under promotions and other controllable conditions. The Studio also includes just-in-time actions for procurement planning and scheduling.
