The Ekyam team is headed to NRF 2026: Retail’s Big Show from January 11–13, and we aren’t coming empty-handed. As part of the Innovators Showcase, we’ll be debuting Ekyam riOS (Retail Intelligence Operating System) at the event.
Visit us in Booth 8028 in the Innovators Showcase to demo the only conversational interface that moves beyond business intelligence and executes operations based on insights:
- Generate and submit purchase and transfer orders
- Change prices, create discounts, and run promotions
- Allocate inventory
- Manage order routing
- Additional operations coming soon
Ekyam riOS (Retail Intelligence Operating System) delivers natural-language intelligence and operations in a governed, permissions-based environment. As the only platform that can connect to any data source or system of record—and multiple simultaneously—riOS ingests and synthesizes data across ERPs, OMS, WMS, ecommerce, data warehouses and suppliers to power both decisioning and operational follow-through.
What does this look like in practice? A brand can ask riOS when key items will stock out; riOS flags that several styles will run out within two weeks and that raw materials are about to become unavailable. At the user’s prompting, riOS generates the purchase order before supply risk turns into missed revenue.
Powered by Ekyam’s unified data layer and retail knowledge graph, riOS accelerates decision velocity and provides a secure, enterprise-grade system for AI-driven retail intelligence and operations.
- Integrate: Connect directly to multiple systems of record simultaneously. Many platforms are limited to a single data layer, but Ekyam can simultaneously synthesize data from many applications, ensuring accuracy even when downstream data layers are fragmented.
- Transform: synthesize your data into a single source of truth. Ekyam merges, validates, and standardizes data across systems into a unified retail model, driving direct impact.
- Act: Accelerate your business with riOS. Teams can take real operational action with simple prompts, directly from insight to execution.
TL;DR: Teams can ask questions, generate insights, and—most importantly—perform actions such as reallocating inventory, updating prices, managing orders or creating purchase orders. All in one interface.
There are major competitive advantages of having riOS on your side:
- Your decision-making can get faster and smarter with data-backed answers and shorter reporting cycles.
- Operational efficiency increases thanks to automated routine queries and workflows, so you can spend less time gathering data and more time optimizing operations, planning promotions, and managing suppliers.
- You’ll remove information bottlenecks with instant answers from riOS; no more searching multiple systems or waiting on an analyst.
- With actionable insights available on demand, teams can accelerate their responses to evolving business needs.
Ekyam riOS’ operational capabilities build upon the middleware, standardized data layer, semantic context, and conversational intelligence that are already core to Ekyam. riOS delivers insights, decisions, and execution all in one thread.
