Forecast demand and plan every shipment to Amazon
xCast turns your Amazon inventory and order reports into a forecast for every listing, a shipment plan for each Amazon marketplace and purchase orders timed to your suppliers' lead times.
What xCast does
Six parts of inventory planning, worked out from the same reports so every number agrees.
Demand forecasts
A forecast for every listing, with seasonality learned from its own sales history and a confidence level you can check.
FBA shipment plans
How many units to send to each Amazon marketplace, rounded to full case packs and split by region.
Purchase orders
Reorder quantities timed to each supplier's lead time, so new stock lands before the old runs out.
Warehouse and shipments
Stock in your own warehouse, purchase orders on the way and shipments to Amazon, tracked in one place.
Regional demand
Where customers order from, by state and region, to guide where inventory is placed.
Stock alerts
Early warnings for listings heading out of stock and for stock that will take too long to sell.
How xCast works with Amazon
xCast reads two kinds of Amazon reports: FBA inventory and orders. Your team can upload them, or, with your permission, xCast requests them from Amazon through the Selling Partner API.
Read only
xCast reads reports. It never changes listings, prices, orders or shipments in your Amazon account.
No buyer personal data
Order reports come without buyer names, street addresses, email addresses or phone numbers.
Your permission, your control
You choose whether to connect, and you can remove xCast's access at any time from Seller Central. Your data is then deleted within 30 days.
Security
Built for the data your business runs on. Read the detail on our Security page.
Two-step verification
Every account signs in with a password of at least 12 characters and a code from an authenticator app.
Encrypted and separated
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and each seller's data sits in its own workspace.
Recorded and reviewed
Sign-ins and account changes are recorded with the time and IP address, and access is reviewed every quarter.
