Publication number: 20230316317Abstract: This application relates to apparatus and methods for automatically determining and providing prices for items for sale in stores or online such as to clear inventor of the items. In some examples, a computing device employs artificial intelligence, such as machine learning models, to determine the pricing of the items. For example, the computing device may employ a forecasting model that determines a forecasted demand for an item based on store inventory and experimental sales of the item. The computing device may also employ an item pricing optimization model that determines a clearance price for the item based at least on the forecasted demand as well as historical data indicating previous price adjustments and sales of the item. In some examples, the item pricing optimization model determines a time period to apply the clearance price to the item. The item may then be placed on sale for the clearance price.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 2, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Prakhar MEHROTRA, Yixian CHEN
