Expansion Intelligence OS

AI-Operated Retail Expansion Planning

Overview

Built an AI-operated expansion operating system, deployed as executive demos for two national retail chains and a global quick-service restaurant brand, that takes expansion teams from territorial analysis to site evaluation, deterministic monthly financials and a five-year opening plan.

Highlights

  1. 01

    Built a dual-brain AI analyst: Claude tool-calling over deterministic services with an intent-router fallback for when the live model is unavailable, driving the map through a typed visual-action bus (87% prompt-cache hit rate).

  2. 02

    Engineered a deterministic monthly financial engine calibrated to public disclosures within +0.27% on published sales productivity, feeding site evaluation, scenarios and a five-year plan.

  3. 03

    Integrated warehouse data through a read-only ETL (184 road-network isochrones, 19 DENUE editions, a 4,894-cell H3 demand layer) and adapted the financial engine from grocery retail to quick-service formats, with 235–286 automated tests per deployment.
