Artificial Intelligence Instead of a Crystal Ball

How does it work? We use various methods and AI models that we train with data from the past. Our models recognize correlations and trends and learn to apply them to the future depending on numerous external factors. This allows you to use Nesto to create intelligent shift plans for every brand, every business and every sales channel. With Nesto, roster creation is as individual as your business.

Our forecast considers e.g.:

  • Historical data (orders & transactions)
  • Automatic consideration of numerous external factors such as weather, vacations and public holidays as well as payment dates for social benefits
  • Industry trends
  • Transfer learning from other locations
