Puls8™ DBF transforms forecasting from static, spreadsheet-driven planning into an intelligent, driver-based system that shows not just what is changing, but why.
By combining AI-powered analytics with transparent demand drivers, Puls8™ DBF helps organizations improve forecast accuracy, strengthen alignment across functions, and make faster, more confident decisions—from macro trends down to SKU-level detail.
Puls8™ DBF improves forecast accuracy by 30–40% by identifying and quantifying the true drivers of demand—from promotions and pricing to external market signals. By replacing static, assumption-heavy models with transparent, driver-based forecasting, it enables faster scenario planning, stronger cross-functional alignment, and more confident decisions across Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Supply Chain.

Puls8™ DBF uses AI to identify the true drivers of demand and translate them into transparent, explainable forecasts.
Its cloud-based platform integrates with your existing systems and data sources, including master data, shipment history, route constraints, calendars, POS, and syndicated data. The result is a connected forecasting environment that supports dynamic planning across time horizons, business levels, and teams.
Traditional forecasting often relies too heavily on historical patterns and manual adjustments, making it difficult to respond with confidence when market conditions shift.
Puls8™ DBF replaces black-box models with an assumption-driven approach that improves clarity, accuracy, and planning agility.
Puls8™ DBF is designed for organizations that need forecasting to support both near-term execution and long-range planning.
Organizations using Puls8™ DBF gain:
Move beyond static models and manual assumptions. See how driver-based forecasting can help your teams understand demand more clearly, respond faster, and plan with greater confidence.
