1Channel AI Insights & Resources
Expert perspectives on agentic AI, conversational assistants, and computer vision across retail and sales execution
1Channel is an enterprise AI platform for retail, built into the same app your field team already uses. Five AI capabilities work together as one AI-powered sales execution system for retail and field sales teams, helping reps move faster and managers decide with better data. No separate app, no extra setup.
Each capability solves a specific problem in the field-to-decision loop, from daily execution to shelf-level competitive tracking. Watch a short video for how each one works.
A conversational AI assistant built into the mobile app and admin portal, powered by natural language AI. Ask a question in plain language, get an instant answer, and let AI decision intelligence guide daily tasks step by step.
Agentic AI handles journey planning and route optimisation automatically, sequencing the day's store visits to cut travel time between outlets while staying aligned to existing beat plans and territory management.
An AI sales intelligence engine that reads sales, visit, and stock data daily. Predictive AI turns it into a ranked list of actions and early-warning alerts on sales performance for managers and field teams.
AI image recognition and computer vision read shelf and POSM photos captured on visits, using product recognition to verify visibility and POSM compliance in seconds.
Share of Shelf AI uses retail computer vision to turn a few shelf photos into shelf analytics on your brand's visibility against competitors, tracked over time and rolled into store audit reports.
