Sound familiar?

Most demand planning pain isn't the forecast. It's everything around it.

Whether you're still in spreadsheets or paying for a platform you've outgrown, these are the problems we hear most.

“We're paying for features we never use.”

“Go-live is a year away.”

“Our planners still live in Excel.”

“Nobody trusts the number.”

“Our slow movers break every model.”

“We're locked in, and the renewal price just went up.”

What it's costing you

Every month with a weak forecast ties up cash you can't get back.

Forecast error doesn't stay in the planning team. It shows up as stock in the warehouse, emergency freight, missed orders and planners working late. Even a modest lift in accuracy can flow straight to lower inventory, better service and stronger margin.

The quickest way to know what's possible is to test it on your own data.

Meet SL Demand Planner

Enterprise-grade forecasting at an affordable price.

One plan that combines AI forecasting, the market knowledge only your team has, and the real-world limits of your supply chain.

Smarter forecasting

The AI tests multiple models on every SKU and picks the one that performs best on your history, including slow movers, intermittent and lumpy demand.

Your market knowledge, built in

Add promotions, customer wins, price changes and known events. Your team's insight sharpens the forecast instead of fighting it.

Plans you can actually execute

Lead times, order minimums and pack sizes turn the forecast into a plan that is feasible, not theoretical.

A forecast your team will trust

See which model was chosen for each SKU, how it has performed, and what changed since last cycle. Track whether overrides help or hurt.

Feels familiar from day one

An Excel-like interface your planners will recognise, so adoption doesn't stall.

Free 1-week proof of concept

Don't take our word for it. Test it on your own data.

Demos prove nothing about your business. Our POC runs on your products, history and lead times, and we agree what success looks like before we start.

  1. 1

    Send your data

    About 1 hour of your time

    Standard Excel exports: sales history (ideally 2 to 3 years) and a product list. Plus a 10-minute survey.

  2. 2

    Agree what success looks like

    Before we start

    Together we set the measures that matter: accuracy against your current forecast, bias, and where stock is tied up.

  3. 3

    We build and test your forecast

    Within 1 week

    Every SKU is forecast and back-tested against history you hold back, so the result is honest, not flattering.

  4. 4

    Walk through the results

    With your team

    A clear results pack to share with your CFO and leadership. Then you decide. No pressure.

What you walk away with

  • Forecast accuracy and bias for your SKUs, by category and demand type
  • A comparison against your current forecast or spreadsheet method
  • Your SKUs grouped by demand pattern (smooth, erratic, intermittent, lumpy)
  • A view of where inventory is likely over or under target
  • A shareable summary for your leadership team

What we ask in return: honest feedback, and permission to share anonymised results. That's it.

Real results

Proven where off-the-shelf forecasting usually breaks.

Importer-distributor · Australia & New Zealand

~4,500 SKUs. Quarterly sea freight lead times. Lumpy, project-driven demand.

Result: Forecast accuracy reported at 70%. Inventory projected to reduce by 15%. A live planning tool the client now runs independently.

Wholesale distribution business

Manual demand and replenishment planning was stretching a small team and creating key-person risk.

Result: AI-augmented demand and replenishment planning at around 20% of the cost of an equivalent in-house team.

Tier 1 telecommunications provider

New S&OP framework plus inventory and demand planning redesign. (Pre-dates SL Demand Planner; shows the expertise behind it.)

Result: ~$110M working capital released.

Is this right for you?

Built for businesses that need more than Excel, but less than a mega-suite.

A great fit if you:

  • Manage roughly 1,000 to 50,000+ active SKUs
  • Are a distributor, wholesaler, importer or manufacturer
  • Forecast in spreadsheets or a basic ERP module today
  • Have a planning platform coming up for renewal, or one your team avoids using
  • Have long lead times, long-tail ranges or lumpy demand

Probably not the right fit if you:

  • Need store-level retail replenishment across hundreds of stores
  • Need live ERP integration on day one (Excel upload is used today)

No big commitment, ever

Questions we hear

Straight answers.

What is AI demand planning software?

AI demand planning software predicts how much of each product your customers will buy, so you can plan stock, purchasing and production. SL Demand Planner tests several forecasting models on every SKU, picks the best one for that item's demand pattern, then combines it with your team's market knowledge and supply constraints.

How much does demand planning software cost in Australia?

It varies widely. Entry-level tools are usually the cheapest, while enterprise suites often cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a year before implementation fees. SL Demand Planner is priced as a month-to-month subscription at a fraction of enterprise cost. We'll share exact pricing for your SKU count after the POC.

What data do I need for the free proof of concept?

Standard Excel exports of your sales history (2 to 3 years is ideal, less can still work) and your product list, plus a 10-minute survey. No system access or IT project is needed.

How long does it take to see results?

You'll have your POC results within 1 week of us receiving your data. If you go ahead, you can deploy in 1 week.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Your data is anonymised and encrypted, used only for your POC, and a data sharing agreement is available on request.

What happens after the POC? Is there any obligation?

None. We walk you through the results and you decide. If it's not right for you, that's the end of it. We only ask for honest feedback and permission to share anonymised results.

Can it handle slow-moving and intermittent products?

Yes. This is where many tools struggle and where SL Demand Planner is strongest. It classifies each SKU by demand pattern and uses methods designed for intermittent and lumpy demand.

We already have a demand planning tool. Can we test against it?

Yes, and we encourage it. Share your current forecast and we'll compare accuracy side by side, so you can make a fact-based decision before your next renewal.

Do we need to replace our ERP?

No. SL Demand Planner works alongside your existing ERP. Today data is loaded from Excel exports, with direct ERP connectors on our roadmap.
