Introducing Hakio’s inventory forecasting software
Notice the signals. Minimize lost revenue
NOOS requires structure
With NOOS, the expectation is clear: Never out of stock. It’s a commitment to your wholesale partners, D2C customers, and brand integrity.
But keeping that promise is easier said than done - especially when replenishment relies on manual reports, stats, and more data than the human brain can reasonably process.
It all boils down to brand integrity. Because if your customers can't rely on their staple items always being in stock, they go somewhere else. And then it's a whole other beast to win them back.
Collections requires speed
For collections, the risk looks different. You often have one opportunity to get inventory right. If you miss the early signals or your vendors can’t support mid-season restocks, every unfulfilled sale is revenue you’ll never get back.
And while some high-end brands lean into intentional stock-outs to drive scarcity, most fashion businesses aren’t trying to create hype through absence—they’re trying to meet demand with precision.
You’re the expert shaping the future of fashion. We’re the tool that helps you move faster.
Because we understand the balance: overreact to stock-outs, and you end up with bloated safety stock and capital tied up in inventory. Under-respond, and you risk lost revenue.
- Hakio gives your team the ability to detect demand shifts early, replenish more frequently, and stay agile—without overbuying.
- We forecast down to SKU level—colorways, size splits, styles—so you can avoid stock-outs not just by category, but by the exact product variant your customers are looking for.
You're in great company with leading fashion brands
Striking the right stock balance with Hakio
Fear of stockouts is real - and for good reason. In fashion, lost revenue from a missed sale isn't just frustrating; it damages relationships, weakens sell-through, and can derail entire seasons.
That’s why many brands lean on safety stock as protection. But more buffer means more capital locked in inventory—and the bigger your safety net, the harder it is to stay lean, efficient, and responsive. Without the right inventory planning in place, that balance is difficult to manage.
This challenge applies just as much to NOOS as it does to seasonal collections. In both cases, poor visibility and slow decision-making can lead to either lost sales or excess stock. That’s where smart stock optimization becomes essential - not just to maintain availability, but to protect margin and free up working capital.
In collection planning, some brands can replenish mid-season—if vendors allow it and lead times are flexible. Others don’t have that option at all. For them, every sell-through mistake becomes permanently lost revenue.
That’s why early insight is so valuable. If you can see what’s performing in the first few weeks, your sales team can push what’s moving and react to what’s not. Without accurate inventory planning, excess stock builds up quietly—and ends in markdowns, clearance sales, or waste.
Hakio’s probabilistic inventory forecasting platform gives you a clear view of multiple possible outcomes—so you can plan with flexibility, reduce uncertainty, and make smarter decisions with confidence. The result? Smarter stock optimization that helps you meet demand without overcommitting.
The challenge with NOOS isn’t just staying in stock—it’s staying in sync with real-time demand. Since NOOS products are purchased continuously rather than seasonally, timing is everything. Success depends on having your finger on the pulse and reading market signals before they turn into stockouts.
Today, that’s easier said than done. For many brands, NOOS replenishment is still based on manual reports—pulled, checked, and analyzed by hand. This slows everything down. From identifying low stock to placing a purchase order, the process is time-consuming and resource-heavy.
With Hakio’s inventory forecasting and planning software, you get the live data you need to detect out-of-stock risks early and act on them instantly. That means purchase orders can be timed with precision, not just placed when someone finally spots a problem.
Boost your revenue growth through effective stock optimization
Revenue growth in fashion doesn’t just come from bold design or a great campaign. It comes from having the right product, in the right place, at the right time. That’s the core of stock optimization.
Hakio’s AI-powered platform helps fashion brands balance demand with availability, optimizing inventory across styles, colors, seasons, and sales channels. With dynamic, context-aware models, you can avoid both understocking and overstocking—boosting sell-through, protecting margins, and freeing up capital to reinvest in growth.

The devil is in the detail
In fashion, the details aren’t just important—they’re everything. That’s why Hakio forecasts at the SKU level, including colorways, size splits, and style variations. When a specific size or color sells faster than expected, you shouldn’t have to wait for a full style to trigger a reorder.
With Hakio, you can spot those micro-shifts in demand and replenish precisely where it matters, avoiding revenue loss on a single variant while protecting overall availability. Hakio’s SKU-level forecasting also supports comparisons against top-down sales budgets - helping you identify gaps, align stakeholders, and bring unit-level planning closer to commercial targets.
Most brands rely on fixed size ratios to guide buying decisions because managing every SKU manually is just too time-consuming. But when something takes off unexpectedly, those assumptions fall short. That’s where Hakio comes in. Our platform handles complexity for you by leveraging advanced models, AI, and high-volume data to surface actionable insights in a simple, user-friendly interface.
