What Retailers Are Saying
Stacey Shriefer
Vice President Inventory Planning
“Toolio was instrumental in showing our merchants that they could have 50-75% less SKU count and do the same amount of sales. We expect $5M in cost savings and efficiency gains.”

Planning Director
"There are so many metrics that have given us the data we need to feel more confident about buying deeper into merchandise. The weeks of supply metric has helped us see potential to reorder styles if they are selling at a fast rate or pivot with additional marketing tools if a style is moving at a slower rate."
Laura Smith
Inventory Planning Manager
“We have cut down on inventory while maintaining in stock rate goals. We are able to plan smarter because we are now planning by channel, where we were planning at a total company level prior to Toolio.”
Yes, including the parts that live in spreadsheets, line sheets, and disconnected buying tools. Toolio manages the full assortment workflow: width and depth planning, option counts, cluster-level localization, and buy quantities. All connected to your merchandise financial plan so assortment decisions stay within OTB. The process maps to how your team already works, not the other way around.
Two ways. First, Toolio analyzes historical performance to recommend the right width and depth for each assortment, how many options, how deep to buy, based on your financial targets and past sell-through. Second, automated clustering groups your locations by how they're expected to perform for a given product, so you're not sending the same assortment to stores with different demand profiles. Both recommendations are explainable. Your team sees the logic and the output.
Yes. Planning happens at the choice level (style/color) by cluster (group of locations), and clusters are built from your actual location attributes: geography, store size, historical sales behavior. You define the hierarchy. If you plan across multiple channels, regions, or store formats, each can have its own assortment logic within the same platform. Custom product attributes, seasonal timelines, and planning calendars are all configurable.
Toolio supports placeholder products in the assortment plan, you plan for new styles before they're finalized in your ERP or PLM. When the real style is adopted, it maps to the placeholder automatically. This means your buying decisions don't have to wait on product development timelines, and there's no manual reconciliation step when styles are confirmed.
The assortment plan is built within the guardrails of your merchandise financial plan. OTB and receipt targets flow directly in so assortment decisions stay financially grounded. When assortments are finalized, they feed into allocation. On the integration side, Toolio connects to ERPs (NetSuite, SAP) and PLM systems for style data. Everything updates automatically so assortment and financial plans stay in sync without manual exports.
