Proactive AI for retail
Retail moves too fast for yesterday's report.
Act on what's happening now.
From stores and supply chain to e-commerce, Cimba unifies your retail data into one governed view, flagging stockouts, demand shifts, margin leaks, and growth opportunities early, with the Next Best Action for the team that owns it.
Retail moves in real time. Your tools should too.
Cimba brings analytics, the Next Best Action, and task execution into one native platform, not stitched-together tools. Governed and built for enterprise scale.
Beyond yesterday's dashboard
BI shows what already happened. Cimba watches the same data continuously and surfaces what needs attention now, while you can still act on it.
One view across the business
Merchandising, supply chain, and e-commerce each have their own tools and files. Cimba unifies them, so you see the whole picture in time to move.
Ahead of the weekly report
Instead of waiting for a report that lands after the demand spike or the stockout, Cimba flags it early, with the Next Best Action attached.
Why retail teams choose Cimba
One platform, not three tools
Cimba runs analytics, the Next Best Action, and task execution in a single native system, so insight, decision, and action don't live in disconnected tools that never talk.
See it while you can still act
Continuous monitoring across stores, inventory, supply chain, and e-commerce, so stockouts, demand shifts, and margin leaks surface early, not in next week's review.
Impact you can see in revenue, not just on a dashboard
Every flag protects margin or captures a sale: a stockout caught before it costs orders, a markdown taken while there's still margin, a promotion scaled while it's working. Dashboards show the number after it moves; Cimba changes it.
From signal to action, across the floor
Every flag comes with the Next Best Action and the context: reorder, reprice, reallocate, or promote, routed to the merchandising, supply chain, or e-commerce owner to execute.
Fast to prove, safe to trust
New workflows go live in under a week, on a SOC 2 Type II platform with a full audit trail, and one governed, consistent view across banners, regions, and channels. Audit by design.
Retail workflows Cimba runs
Inventory and out-of-stock detection
Monitor stock positions across stores, DCs, and channels; flag stockouts and overstocks early with a recommended reorder or reallocation.
Demand forecasting and markdown optimization
Spot demand shifts and slow movers, and recommend markdown timing and depth to protect margin instead of reacting late.
Promotion and assortment performance
See in real time which promotions and SKUs are driving growth (and which are dragging margin), with the next move attached.
Supply chain and fulfillment monitoring
Track supplier performance, lead times, and fulfillment SLAs; surface risks before they hit shelves or shipments.
E-commerce and omnichannel performance
Connect digital and store signals (conversion, cart, fulfillment, and inventory) so online and offline are managed as one book, not two.
Sample use case
A national retailer ran merchandising, supply chain, and e-commerce off weekly reports stitched from a dozen systems, so problems surfaced only after they had cost sales or margin.
With Cimba, one continuously scored view:
- Stockouts and overstocks surface early, with a recommended reorder or reallocation.
- Demand shifts trigger markdown recommendations while there's still margin to save.
- Every flag routes to the team that owns it, with the Next Best Action attached.
The result: out-of-stocks caught days earlier, margin protected on slow movers, and teams acting instead of building reports.

Proven at scale
At Swiggy, one of the world's largest food-delivery marketplaces, teams went live in under three months and hit their monthly GMV targets faster, while each person covers far more accounts than before.
