Flowlity vs Logility DemandAI+

Flowlity is an AI-powered supply chain forecasting and planning solution for manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Its platform covers demand planning, inventory optimization, supply planning, sales and operations planning, and collaborative planning. Probabilistic forecasts are generated at SKU level from a company’s sales history and supply chain data, helping planners account for uncertainty in demand or lead times. Recommendations can factor in minimum order quantities, batch sizes, full truck or container loads, and Incoterms. The AI monitors spikes, anomalies, and stockouts, and corrects outliers with synthetic resampling. Flowlity lists connectors for SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Cegid, Odoo, and Sage, plus API and SFTP data transfers. Flowlity Lite costs €249 a month, supports up to 5,000 SKUs, and relies on CSV uploads rather than native ERP integration. Enterprise pricing depends on SKU count or inventory value and includes a one-time implementation fee. The company says customer data is hosted in Azure data centers in France, isolated by customer, and encrypted in transit and at rest.

Logility DemandAI+ is a web-based demand planning and forecasting solution built around forecast drivers, demand signals, and prebuilt agents. Planners can work with factors such as promotions, events, seasonality, and trends, while anomaly detection identifies irregular historical demand for review and tagging as exceptional events. Demand sensing uses market information and near real-time signals to identify short-term buying patterns. Prebuilt agents can identify products, channels, and regions behind forecast misses, return forecast volumes and demand history through natural language, surface early trend signals, and point to models needing attention. Agents can suggest next steps and handle multi-step workflows, operating autonomously or with human involvement according to planner preference. Organizations can add agents as their needs evolve or work with Logility experts to build beyond the prebuilt set. Logility says the product can be added on top of an existing SAP IBP platform and describes an SAP integration in an S&OP process. Pricing is on request, and prospective customers can request a walkthrough.
