“The process for identifying and selling excess inventory is archaic, manual and error-prone, leading to a hit in both top and bottom lines of any brand’s business.” says Ronen Lazar, co-founder of INTURN. “With inflation driven margin pressures, inventory optimization is top of mind for every company. As well, recent inventory volatility due to supply chain disruptions combined with the shift in consumer spending has resulted in significant increase of excess inventory. Adding Mad Street Den’s AI capabilities to drive further automation and predictability will enable our customers to further optimize for both cost savings and margin improvement.” added Ronen.

We’ve been product tagging, providing insights and powering demand and inventory analysis with Vue.ai for years now and the Inturn promise fits the continuum of that workflow by allowing buyers and sellers to connect, sell faster and maximize recovery. The product is top notch and the customers who used them have been thrilled with the company. It was a no-brainer for us,” say MSD founders, Ashwini Asokan & Anand Chandrasekaran.
