Peak, a UiPath company, has launched its new Agentic AI solutions, including Agentic Merchandising, Agentic Inventory Management, and Agentic Commercial Pricing. These solutions usher in a new era of AI, where autonomous agents predict, decide, and act in real-world environments to drive measurable outcomes for retailers and manufacturers.
Unlike traditional AI tools that only provide insights or recommendations, Peak’s agentic solutions proactively optimize operations at scale. “This new era in AI technologies, built on large language models, offers unprecedented potential for businesses to increase performance,” said Richard Potter, CEO and co-founder of Peak. “Our agentic AI solutions allow customers to automate complex commercial decisions, from inventory movements to pricing strategies, enabling them to thrive in today’s volatile business environment.”
Agentic Merchandising: Efficiency and Agility for Retail Teams
Agentic Merchandising optimizes the entire merchandising lifecycle — from supplier to distribution center to store. It enhances product lifecycle management across buying, pricing, promotions, allocation, and markdown. By balancing revenue, margin, and inventory goals while reducing manual work, retailers can respond to market trends with greater speed and agility.
Agentic Inventory Management: Building Resilient Supply Chains
Agentic Inventory Management continuously optimizes inventory decisions across procurement, production, and fulfillment. Using predictive planning and intelligent trade-off analysis, businesses improve service levels, maximize value, and build smarter, more resilient supply chains.
The Hain Celestial Group, owners of brands like Ella’s Kitchen and Hartley’s, is an early adopter. James Cranfield, Vice President International Supply Chain at Hain Celestial Group, said: “Working with Peak helps us build a smarter, more resilient supply chain. Agentic Inventory Management allows us to anticipate and respond to demand volatility more effectively, ensuring our customers get the products they love while reducing inefficiencies.”
Agentic Commercial Pricing: Resilience in Volatile Markets
Agentic Commercial Pricing manages all commercial pricing decisions, including list prices, catalogue optimization, real-time quotes, and bid writing. By learning from top-performing bids and optimizing pricing strategies, enterprises can improve conversion rates, deal velocity, and win rates across the quote-to-cash process. This leads to faster, more precise pricing decisions that protect margins and enhance competitiveness.
George Foster-Jones, Commercial Finance Director at Speedy, added: “With Peak’s Agentic Commercial Pricing, we can optimize every price set, ensuring our customers always receive the best offers and service while boosting operational performance.”
