From tight margins to competitive advantage

CPG companies face volatile demand, complex supply networks, and relentless retailer pressure. AI promises relief, but most organizations experience it as isolated pilots that never reach full impact.

See Use Cases

CPG organizations aren't short on data. AI initiatives still stall at pilots because the data is fragmented, definitions vary by team, and policies limit self-service.

Context Gaps

LLMs and analytics tools are only as good as the business context they access. When "net revenue," "baseline," or "incremental volume" mean different things across teams, AI outputs become hard to trust.

Workflow Gaps

Even when AI produces a smart recommendation, it stops short of execution. Teams still spend hours pulling data, validating assumptions, formatting presentations, and manually coordinating actions.

Control Gaps

Leaders want AI in higher-stakes analytical roles, automating decisions and coordinating actions. But that requires governance, observability, and policy-driven control to operate safely inside the enterprise.

The Operating System

An operating system that turns AI from tool to capability

A vertically integrated data and AI stack that provides trusted context, safe autonomy, and a natural interface employees actually adopt.

3 layers

Unified Stack

Data ecosystem, enterprise policies, and user experience, connected

100% governed

By Design

Role-based controls, audit trails, and policy enforcement built in

1 context

Shared Truth

Consistent metrics and definitions across every team and agent

scale

Enterprise Ready

From pilot to enterprise-wide adoption without rebuilding

Use Cases

Autonomous agents for high-impact CPG functions

AI agents that operate across functions: monitoring, diagnosing, recommending, and taking action with full business context.

Inventory Optimization

Balance service levels with working capital

AI agents analyze demand variability, lead times, and shelf-life constraints to recommend reorder points and proactively flag risks before they become out-of-stocks or write-offs.

Demand variability and promotional spike analysis

Lead time and pack-change tracking

Promo events and shelf-life constraint modeling

SKU-level excess and obsolescence identification

Trade Promotion

Maximize commercial effectiveness

Trade spend is one of the largest and most complex investments in CPG. Agents support promotion planning by simulating scenarios, identifying likely lifts, and evaluating post-event performance with consistent definitions.

Simulating promotion scenarios and expected lifts

Post-event performance with baseline and incremental volume

Compliance spotting and deductions/claims workflows

Exception surfacing with suggested resolution paths

Supply Chain & S&OP

Respond faster when disruptions hit

When supplier delays, transportation constraints, or demand shifts happen, agents run rapid scenario analyses and propose response plans aligned to service and margin goals.

Response plans aligned to service and margin goals

Faster S&OP cycles and better allocation decisions

Reduced last-minute expediting costs

Manufacturing Performance

Turn operational data into actionable guidance

AI agents analyze downtime patterns, quality deviations, yield loss, and maintenance data to identify root causes and recommend interventions for teams on the floor.

Downtime pattern analysis and root cause identification

Quality deviation and yield loss monitoring

Preventive maintenance prioritization

Process drift detection and intervention recommendations

Enterprise Benefits

A unified data experience and workflow efficiency for every employee

When sales, supply chain, finance, and marketing use different numbers and different assumptions, decisions become slower and riskier.

A unified data experience makes it easier to find, trust, and use the same business logic everywhere, reducing friction across the entire decision cycle.

Consistent Metrics

Shared definitions and business logic across every team

Self-Service Discovery

Reduce dependence on technical teams for routine analytics

Automated Reporting

Eliminate recurring manual reporting and exception monitoring

From Insight to Action

Move from analysis to execution without switching between tools

The Platform

A complete stack purpose-built for CPG

Every layer of the Datafi platform serves a role in turning AI from isolated experiments into enterprise capability.

Outcomes

Speed, consistency, and repeatability

Transformative outcomes don't come from having better answers. They come from actioning data, turning intelligence into operational capability.

Lower Costs

Reduce glue-task hours across sales ops, demand planning, category management, and finance. Less time reconciling spreadsheets, more time improving outcomes.

Faster Decisions

Agents run scenario analyses in minutes, not days. S&OP cycles accelerate, allocation decisions improve, and teams respond to disruptions before they escalate.

Stronger Execution

AI that learns business context, reasons across messy constraints, and executes workflows that produce measurable results, consistently and at scale.

Turn AI from experiments into CPG outcomes

A practical, scalable path to lower costs, faster decisions, stronger execution, and a more resilient business powered by AI designed to do more than talk.
