Why we’re passionate about transforming core merchandising operations in fashion retail

We're driven to help fashion retailers thrive and break down the barriers that prevent them from meeting customer demand across their points of sale by way of advanced, yet intuitive, AI and machine learning solutions.
Nextail: About the company

Our approach

By connecting sophisticated merchandise planning and execution decisions to demand at the most granular level and across all points of sale, Nextail dramatically reduces overbuys, overstocks and markdowns, all while improving working capital and promoting sustainable, long-term operations.

Nextail harnesses the power of AI and advanced algorithms to drive faster decision cycles and automate complex merchandising processes. This enables fashion retailers to  respond swiftly, confidently and at scale to changing market dynamics, even as they grow. And while each Nextail solution is powerful on its own, they’re even better together.

Fashion brands and retailers that choose Nextail tap into years of cumulative industry experience and expertise. Together, we can make the fashion retail world a better, more sustainable place through merchandise planning and operations that are continuously aligned to demand.
