Retail intelligence for retail executives & leadership teams

11Ants gives retail executives a data-driven business without a multi-year build. Every team gets Ant, an AI retail expert that answers commercial questions in plain English, and more than 40 research modules for deep, repeatable analysis, so decisions rest on evidence rather than instinct. Leaders use 11Ants to grow margin and market share, oversee performance, and turn customer data into new revenue.

Retail Intelligence is the decision layer on top of retail analytics: analytics tells you what happened, and intelligence tells you what to do.

11Ants is a Retail Intelligence platform used by retailers including Mercator, IDEA, Metcash, Konzum and Green Cross Health.
