The buyer that never sleeps.
Every night, Claude evaluates every supplier against your forecast, your live stock, MOQs, lead times and any open POs. By Monday morning, your buyer opens one screen and sees the week's order list — explained.
Lead time slipped to 21 days last quarter. Order now to keep parity ahead of the May 15 reset.
Cover is healthy and lead time is short. Re-evaluate in 9 days.
Two top movers trending up. Risk of stockout at the Berlin store before next cycle.
Sits on top of your ERP. Reads stock, writes transactions, never duplicates the source of truth.
Mondays are still the spreadsheet day.
Even at retailers with proper planning tools, the senior buyer spends Monday morning building the week's order proposals from scratch. The proposals end up too late, too generic, or both.
- Pre-filled POs with the reasoning attached
- Stockout risks called out before they bite
- Cover horizon, MOQ status and freight flags surfaced up front
- Supplier knowledge captured in human-written SIFs
- One-click into the PO composer; one-click write-back to your ERP
Capabilities, in plain language.
The Monday Morning Brief
By 09:00, suppliers are sorted into Order now / Wait / Watch. Each one has a paragraph explaining why.
Pre-filled POs
Stokk drafts the order. You review, edit and send. POs write back to your ERP through the same connector.
Stockout risk
Cover horizon and lead-time variance modelled per supplier. Risk flags hit the brief before stockouts hit the floor.
Freight & MOQ economics
Order-up-to math respects supplier MOQs, freight thresholds and case multiples. No forced over-orders.
Supplier intelligence files
Capture the knowledge that lives in your buyer's head — shutdowns, allocations, recall histories — and feed it into every brief.
Schedule per supplier
Weekly, biweekly, monthly. Stokk respects per-supplier review cadences and only surfaces vendors when it's time.
What the buyer actually sees on Monday morning.
The supplier intelligence file your team writes feeds into the brief. The freight + MOQ math is shown, not hidden.

The numbers Stokk customers report after the first cycle.
After the first full ordering cycle, lost-sale events on A-classified items roughly halve.
Buyers stop building proposals from scratch. The Brief lands; they review and approve.
Stokk's per-store sizing and lateral transfers free cash that was sitting on a pallet.
Continuous, offline-capable counts replace the once-a-year shutdown count.
Decisions, with reasoning. Not dashboards.
Most planning tools dashboard. Stokk decides — and writes down why. A buyer can scan five paragraphs in two minutes and approve the week's orders. That's the entire interaction.
Behind each line: a forecast model picked per SKU, a live stock reading, a lead-time variance model, your supplier intelligence file, your freight terms. All of it explained, all of it auditable.
How AI gets used here
Decisions stay explainable. Every recommendation has a written reason and a human approval step. Your data isn't used to train shared models. Claude's prompts are scoped per request.
Plays nicely with the systems you already pay for.
Common questions about this module.
Does the AI ever send orders without approval?
No. A human always approves before any PO leaves Stokk. The AI drafts; the buyer signs.
What if a buyer disagrees with the brief?
They override. Stokk records the override and the reason, and respects it next cycle. The system learns from the buyer, not the other way around.
How are supplier MOQs and freight handled?
Per-supplier MOQ, freight threshold, case multiples and currency are first-class inputs. The brief flags when an order is short of MOQ, what it would take to meet it, and whether it's worth waiting.
