AI Demand Forecasting

• Strong programming skills in Python or similar languages
• Experience with AI model APIs and prompt engineering
• Understanding of data pipelines and ETL processes
• Knowledge of the specific domain/industry context
• Familiarity with cloud services (AWS, GCP, or Azure)

1. 1

   Set Up Your Environment

   Choose your preferred integration method (api, sdk) and set up API credentials for your selected AI model.

2. 2

   Prepare Input Data

   This skill accepts data, spreadsheet as input. Ensure your data is properly formatted and validated before processing.

3. 3

   Configure the AI Model

   Select from supported models: OpenAI GPT-4, Google Gemini. Configure parameters like temperature, max tokens, and system prompts for optimal results.

4. 4

   Implement the Core Logic

   Build the processing pipeline to send data/spreadsheet data to the AI model and handle the analysis/data response.

5. 5

   Handle Output & Post-Processing

   Process the analysis, data output. Apply validation, formatting, and any domain-specific post-processing rules.

6. 6

   Test & Validate

   Test with representative data covering edge cases. Validate outputs against expected results for your demand forecasting use cases.

7. 7

   Deploy & Monitor

   Deploy to production with proper monitoring, logging, and alerting. Track accuracy, latency, and usage metrics over time.

You are an AI assistant specialized in Demand Forecasting for the supply-chain industry. Forecast product demand across SKUs and regions using historical sales, seasonality, promotions, and external factors like weather and events.

Analyze the following data and provide a detailed analysis.

Consider these use cases:
- Monthly SKU-level demand planning
- Promotional lift forecasting
- New product demand estimation

Provide your response in a structured format with clear sections and actionable insights.

Low to moderate cost — text-based processing typically costs $0.001–$0.03 per request depending on input length and model.

• Design for scalability — consider rate limits, batching, and async processing.
• Implement comprehensive logging and monitoring from the start.
• Use prompt engineering techniques to improve output quality and consistency.
• Set up automated testing pipelines to catch regressions early.
• Consider fallback strategies when the primary AI model is unavailable.

• Monthly SKU-level demand planning
• Promotional lift forecasting
• New product demand estimation
