Start Running Leaner, Safer Inventory with AI-From Forecast to Warehouse Floor

This prompt course gives inventory leaders a complete, practical system for applying AI and ChatGPT across the full inventory lifecycle. It turns scattered tasks into a connected workflow: forecasting demand, setting inventory policies, optimizing replenishment, organizing the warehouse, monitoring performance, and driving continuous improvement. Each module builds on the last so you can reduce stockouts and carrying costs while improving service levels, cash flow, and operational stability.

What you'll learn

  • How to translate business goals (service levels, cash constraints, growth targets) into inventory policies that AI can support and explain.
  • Ways to generate demand forecasts that reflect seasonality, promotions, and supplier variability-then convert them into actionable stocking decisions.
  • Methods for setting safety stock and reorder points that balance risk, lead time uncertainty, and cost.
  • Approaches to streamline replenishment rules, order frequency, and quantities to reduce both stockouts and excess.
  • Techniques for analyzing turnover, identifying slow movers, and deciding what to keep, phase down, or discontinue.
  • Strategies for better space utilization, slotting, cross-docking, and flow that shorten put-away and picking time.
  • Tactics to mitigate loss and shrink by finding anomalies, improving controls, and targeting root causes.
  • Ways to evaluate suppliers on reliability and lead time consistency, and adjust inventory policies accordingly.
