The Challenge

A good forecast that sits in a report nobody can query

FMCG businesses sell many products across many channels and regions, and demand shifts with seasons, promotions and local events. Forecasts are often built in spreadsheets with simple rules that miss these patterns. Even a good forecast sits in a report or dashboard, so business users wait for an analyst to run the numbers and decisions rely on gut feel.

What We Built

An end-to-end forecasting system with a conversational front end

Forecasting models

Multiple machine learning models trained and evaluated on historical sales data and compared to find the ones that predict most reliably.

AI agent for natural-language queries

A reasoning agent understands a question, decides whether a new prediction is needed, triggers the forecasting models when it is, and answers with insights from the results.

How it works

ML models produce the numbers and the AI agent decides when to use them and explains them. Trained models predict future sales, validated on historical data — not the language model. Evaluation during training chooses the most accurate model from measured results. The agent reasons step by step, calls the right tool and turns forecast output into plain-language insight. Business users plan and decide.

A typical query

  1. 1A user asks how a product is expected to sell next month
  2. 2The agent works out what it needs
  3. 3If a forecast is needed it triggers the prediction models
  4. 4It interprets trends, changes and risks
  5. 5The user gets a plain-language reply and can ask follow-ups on the same results

What users get

  • Sales and planning teams get forecasts on demand without waiting for an analyst
  • Supply chain and production get better demand estimates for stock and production decisions
  • Managers get plain-language insights, not just tables

Trust

Models are evaluated against each other, so the one in use is chosen on evidence; forecast values come from the trained models and the agent only calls them and explains; the agent works in visible steps, so it is clear which tool was called and why; forecasts inform planning and people make the final calls.

Status: done — a forecasting system for FMCG with multiple ML models trained and evaluated, and an AI agent handling natural-language queries, triggering predictions dynamically and giving insights. Which models were compared and which performed best, accuracy metrics, data used and its granularity, and next steps are still to confirm.
