04Application Layer

The apps your retail teams
actually live in.

Pre-built and custom apps with embedded AI agents, running on the data and rules your team controls. No more “your tool vs my Excel”.

The applicative problem

Your teams are stuck with someone else’s tools.

Generic SaaS doesn’t match your workflow. Custom dev takes six months. Excel wins by default.

The dashboard never matches the team.

Buyers don’t need the planner’s view. Store managers don’t need the head office one. Generic tools force everyone into the same screen.

IT has a six-month backlog.

By the time the “simple” internal app ships, the workflow has changed, the buyer has left, and the spreadsheet is still in use.

Excel is everyone’s plan B.

The official tool exists. The decision still gets made in a spreadsheet, copied back into the tool by hand, with no audit trail.

How it works

Inside the Application Layer.

Three stages. Use what’s there. Build what you need. Understand every call.

03UnderstandActive

AI agents that explain themselves.

Every recommendation a Solya agent makes inside an app comes with its reasoning: the data it read, the rules it applied, the alternatives it ranked.

  • Reasoning trace on every recommendation
  • Click to inspect inputs and rule outcomes
  • Override with reason; the model learns

You are here

Retail was never built for AI.
We’re rebuilding it.

We rolled out Solya’s buying app in a week. Our buyers stopped maintaining their own spreadsheets after the second meeting. That alone paid for the year.
