MarginOracle

MarginOracle is a web app (with optional desktop connector) that predicts near-term gross margin and cash impact at the SKU/customer level, not just top-line sales. It ingests data from QuickBooks/Xero, Shopify/Amazon, and a spreadsheet upload, then forecasts demand, COGS volatility, shipping/fulfillment costs, and discounting effects to produce a forward-looking margin view. The app flags “margin leaks” (e.g., a promo that boosts volume but destroys contribution margin) and recommends guardrails like minimum price floors, reorder timing, and customer-specific discount limits. It’s an AI-assisted predictive analytics product, but it stays grounded with explainable drivers, confidence intervals, and audit trails so finance teams can trust it. The goal is to replace gut-feel promo and purchasing decisions with a weekly, actionable margin forecast that ties directly to cash and inventory risk.
