Models don’t know your margins.
A forecast that ignores cost structure, MOQs and supplier lead times will route you toward the wrong buy every season.
02Intelligence Layer
Your retail logic,
finally executable.
An AI that respects your metrics, your constraints, your priorities, and proposes one decision per SKU·store·action that you can trust, override, or auto-execute.

The intelligence problem
Generic AI doesn’t understand your retail business.
Off-the-shelf models optimize for averages. Retail decisions are about exceptions: the SKU·store pairs where the default answer is wrong.
Rules live in spreadsheets.
Minimum coverage by category, never-out-of-stock SKUs, exchange windows, encoded in one head and one Excel, applied inconsistently across teams.
Every team re-invents the wheel.
Buying computes margin one way, finance another, store managers a third. Nobody’s using the same definition of the same number.
How it works
Inside the Intelligence Layer.
Three stages. You configure the logic. The AI respects it.
01DefineActive
Build your metrics and signals.
Start from a pre-built retail library (sell-through, coverage, residual margin) and adapt the formulas to your reality. Every metric is shared across teams.
- 60+ pre-built retail metrics
- Full editor: formulas, aggregations, time windows
- One definition, used by every team and every agent

02ConstrainActive
Encode your business rules.
Visual rule builder with no code. Hard constraints (never break MOQ), soft preferences (favor the donor store closest to demand), exception flows.
- Pre-built templates for common retail rules
- Versioned, with diff view and rollback
- Bypass with reason, every override audited

03RecommendActive
One decision per SKU·store·action.
The AI produces a single, explainable recommendation per item, ranked, with the reasoning and the alternatives. You approve, override, or auto-execute.
- One recommendation per SKU·store, ranked
- Full reasoning trace, every input visible
- Override with reason; the model learns from it

What you can do with it
All case studiesThe logic center for every retail team.
Real teams running rules, forecasts and recommendations on Solya, without rebuilding the same logic in each tool.
Retail was never built for AI.
We’re rebuilding it.
“Last season we marked down €80k of stock in the wrong stores, and missed as much from stockouts. With Solya, both numbers are on the dashboard before the decision, not after.
Stop watching the dashboard.
