Frame 2
Trusted by teams at global brands

Your planning, your way

It shouldn't be this hard to run demand planning

Growing brands are stuck trying to plan across fragmented tools and broken processes

close

Data is disconnected

Sales and inventory data is scattered across ecommerce, DTC, Amazon, and wholesale. Making it impossible to track performance by SKU, variety pack, or bundle in real-time.

close

Legacy systems can’t keep up

Planning for shelf life, distributor requirements, and long lead times requires flexible forecasting. But rigid systems force you to create oversimplified, unreliable plans.

close

Spreadsheets don’t scale

You're stuck tracking POs, scheduling production, and managing inventory allocation in archaic systems. These manual tasks waste hours and lead to costly mistakes.

"We were using spreadsheets, but they were slow, error prone, and very cumbersome to use. We couldn't make any improvements. Tether super effectively solved those problems while allowing us the benefit of fitting into the process we designed, just with way better technology."

—Omar Muakkassa, CFO
For Them

“We had ambitious plans for the year to launch new products and massively grow topline, but our existing ERP and spreadsheet processes weren’t going to scale. Tether is going to make it possible for us to stay lean and move fast while hitting our growth targets.”

—Em Chadwick, COO
Copper Culture

“We were constantly out of stock because we had to manually pull inventory and had no way to give our supplier a heads up on future POs without a forecast. Tether helps us stay on top of inventory and our supplier can even log in themselves and see exactly what we’re going to be ordering from them in advance.”

—Shawnjit Singh, CEO
