OptiChain Single Echelon Inventory Optimizer is an analytics engine designed to help supply chain teams optimize inventory levels at individual stocking points such as warehouses, distribution centers, or retail locations, without requiring complex multi-tier supply chain data.
This tool is ideal for businesses that want to reduce stockouts, minimize excess inventory, and balance working capital investments at a specific location in their supply chain. Whether you're managing hundreds of SKUs across multiple sites or just one facility, this optimizer gives you data-driven safety stock, reorder point (ROP), and order-up-to level (OUL) recommendations based on historical consumption and forecasted demand.
Highlights
OptiChain Single Echelon Inventory Optimizer provides highly reliable inventory targets at 90%, 95%, and 98% customer service levels. It helps optimize inventory targets by accounting for demand variability, supply variability, and lead time. The tool also considers replenishment frequency and review period to customize for your supply chain needs.
If you've used NuroNet forecasting, this is your next step in optimizing inventory targets. The output provides the reorder point and order-up-to level to guide your replenishment planning. Additionally, OptiChain estimates the Weeks of Supply (WoS) targets required to meet your customer service levels (90%, 95%, and 98%).

This is the Lite edition, offered at no software cost. You pay only for the underlying AWS compute you choose. The three options are EC2 instance types, each billed hourly. The t2.micro and t3.micro are general-purpose burstable instances, while the c7a.medium is compute-optimized. Pick the instance that matches your workload needs. Pricing scales with the hours each instance runs, not by users or data volume. You can run any of these independently.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What resources do the t2.micro, t3.micro, and c7a.medium options give me?
Each option runs the software on that EC2 instance type. The t2.micro and t3.micro are general-purpose burstable instances with a small amount of vCPU and memory. The c7a.medium is compute-optimized, favoring processing-heavy work. You pay for the hours each chosen instance runs.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
The software itself carries no charge on the Lite edition. Hourly billing applies to the underlying AWS compute while the instance runs. A stopped instance stops accruing compute-hour charges, though AWS storage fees may still apply. Charges resume when you restart it.
Which option should I pick if my workload needs more processing power?
The c7a.medium is compute-optimized, so it suits processing-heavy work. The t2.micro and t3.micro are burstable general-purpose instances that handle lighter or variable loads. You run only one instance type at a time, and cost scales with the hours it runs.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
