BOPS

bops.ai is a New York-based enterprise software company that has developed an inventory intelligence platform aimed at consumer brands and retailers. Founded in 2021 by Jorge Risquez (CEO) and Domingo Noriega, the company seeks to address persistent supply chain challenges such as stockouts, excess inventory, and phantom inventory. The platform functions as an intelligence layer on top of existing systems, using AI-driven data applications to provide manufacturers and distributors with end-to-end visibility of their operations.

The core of the business is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, providing clients with tools for enhanced productivity and decision-making. bops.ai's technology facilitates collaborative planning, forecasting, and replenishment (CPFR) by tightly aligning retail store-SKU data with supply chain information. Its features include store-SKU level forecasting, retail analytics, and multi-echelon replenishment, which are designed to create a more accurate consensus on demand. By offering proactive recommendations and real-time consumer demand insights, the platform enables brands to streamline collaboration with retail partners and reduce lost sales and operational costs.

The company targets consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands and other manufacturers that sell through retail channels. It positions itself as a crucial tool for daily supply chain decision-making, helping operators unlock working capital by optimizing inventory levels. Since its inception, bops.ai has secured seed funding from investors including Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator, Story Ventures, Altari Ventures, and Plug and Play Tech Center, raising a total of $3.4 million over several rounds.
