Fuse Demand Planning is AI-powered demand forecasting and supply planning software that generates daily, SKU-level demand forecasts and automated restock recommendations to help fast-growth brands avoid stockouts and overstocks.
Get a daily, SKU-level demand forecast that accounts for seasonality, recency, trends, and promotional events across every sales channel, powered by Fuse's proprietary ML model.
SKU-Level Demand Forecast
Actualize sales daily and generate an up-to-date demand forecast for every SKU at any time. Fuse analyzes 12+ months of sales history so your plan always reflects how the business is actually trending.
AI-Driven Accuracy
Fuse's proprietary machine-learning model accounts for seasonality, sales trends, recency, and category performance automatically. Get significantly higher forecast accuracy than spreadsheets without the manual work.
Subscription & Wholesale Demand
Fuse builds a dedicated forecast for subscription and B2B/wholesale demand alongside your retail channels, so recurring orders and lumpy wholesale buys are planned independently without distorting your DTC or other channel forecasts.
Promotions & Events Forecasting
Tag marketing campaigns, launches, and influencer posts. Fuse adjusts for promotional lift and detrends one-off spikes from next year's forecast, so a viral moment doesn't distort future planning.
Size-Curve Forecasting for Apparel
Style-specific size curves calculated from your own sales history (not one universal curve), auto-populated at the ordering level.
Forecast Editor
AI gets you 80% of the way there, and your expertise closes the gap. Override any forecast when you have insider knowledge, like an upcoming celebrity endorsement, a supplier delay, or a product being phased out.
Automated Restock Recommendations and Replenishment Planning
Turn your demand forecast into a supply plan that accounts for supplier lead times, MOQs, safety stock targets, and channel allocation, so you avoid stockouts and overstocks without over-buying.
Restock Recommendations
Turn your demand forecast into a supply plan that tells you exactly what to order, how much, and when. Recommendations account for supplier lead times, MOQs, and safety stock so you avoid both stockouts and overstocks.
Components Ordering Plan
Manage component inventory with a bill of materials for every finished good, and assign lead times and weeks-of-supply targets at the component level. Never halt production because a single raw material or ingredient ran short.
Channel Allocation
Set channel-specific goals and targets to optimize on-hand levels across DTC, wholesale, Amazon, and retail. Strategically distribute inventory toward demand so every channel stays in stock.
Inventory Analytics and Reporting, Built For Planners
Track sell-through, weeks of supply, stockout gaps, and cash tied up in inventory, with dashboards that update automatically as sales come in.
Inventory Performance Dashboards
Fuse updates automatically as sales come in and inventory moves, so your sell-through, weeks of supply, and stockout exposure are always current without a manual refresh or export.
Inventory Health Metrics
Pull up stock on hand, sell-through, weeks of supply, inventory turn, and spend in seconds and share a live report with any stakeholder.
Stockout Gap Analysis
When a stockout is unavoidable, see it quantified in units and dollars, from when you'll run out to when the next shipment lands, so you can decide to rush, reallocate, or accept it.
Forward-Looking Weeks of Supply
WOS calculated dynamically as sales come in and forecasts change. Set different targets per product, channel, or inventory pool. Explore the Inventory Analytics guide.

When a company is growing over 150% per year like SuitShop, a dynamic tool that updates inventory demand daily is critical. Fuse has taught us a lot about the popularity of our product assortment and helps us optimize our purchase orders to ensure we make the most of our inventory investments.

CEO, SuitShop
Prior to Fuse, I was managing our entire planning process using Excel, so I oftentimes joke that Fuse was my first hire.
Erica Peppers
Product & Operations, Snowe
Fuse has significantly lightened our workload as the breadth of our SKU offering required painstaking, time consuming analysis. Because of Fuse, we were able to better use our capital and time.
Fuse uses AI (probabilistic machine learning) to generate your forecast, accounting for top-line revenue goals, mix seasonality, volume seasonality, recency weighting, and promotional events.
Can the forecast be edited?
Your forecast is fully editable. Think of it as an 80/20 model: Fuse does 80% of the work, and your expertise gets you the remaining 20% there. You know your business best, which is why we give you full control over the final forecast.
How does Fuse handle promotional events?
Fuse's Events module allows you to tag events like marketing promotions and influencer posts so the algorithm detrends them from next year's forecast. You can tag past or future events by percentage lift or unit count.
Does Fuse support size curve forecasting for apparel?
Yes, and it's style-specific (not one universal curve for the whole brand). Fuse calculates a historical size curve per style from your data, auto-populates it at the ordering level, and lets you override with a standard curve if preferred.
What if I just want to use Fuse for the supply plan?
For brands with strong forecasting capabilities, Fuse also offers a basic (non-AI) option in which you upload your own forecast to power the supply plan.
How does Fuse handle weeks of supply (WOS)?
Instead of a backwards-looking average, Fuse calculates forward-looking WOS dynamically as sales come in and forecasts change. You can set different WOS targets per product, channel, or inventory pool.
What happens when a stockout is unavoidable?
Fuse quantifies unavoidable stockouts in both units and dollars, and shows you the gap period visually (when you'll run out vs. when the next shipment arrives). This helps your team decide whether to place an emergency order, accept the stockout, or rush ship from another location.
Does Fuse track preorders?
Yes, Fuse supports negative inventory tracking. When pre-sales exceed on-hand stock, the pre-sold quantity appears in the supply planning view as part of the demand calculation.
