What if everything changes tomorrow? A Canadian company is using AI to help businesses navigate supply chain uncertainty
Kinaxis has launched Maestro, an AI-driven supply chain orchestration platform designed to help companies navigate global disruptions and forecast demand. The platform combines internal data with external signals to allow businesses to model scenarios and adjust plans in real time.
Why it matters
Global instability and trade disruptions can cause ripple effects that halt production or increase costs. This tool allows companies to anticipate these shifts and adjust logistics and inventory to avoid shortages and financial losses.
The details
The platform features 'detector agents' to identify events and 'resolver agents' to handle exceptions. It integrates internal data, such as sales orders and inventory, with external signals like weather and breaking news. To ensure security, Maestro supports separate customer environments for its forecasting models. Additionally, Kinaxis uses GitHub and GitHub Copilot to manage its own agentic software development lifecycle.
What's next
Kinaxis is working to develop integrations that would allow Maestro agents to work with Microsoft Copilot.
