At LEAFIO AI, we believe that successful retail starts at the shelf. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a major new update to LEAFIO Shelf Efficiency, our intelligent merchandising solution that helps retailers automate and perfect their planogram strategies across every store.
This release is all about empowering retailers to work smarter—with predictive insights, flexible analytics, and streamlined tools for execution. Whether you’re managing 10 locations or 1,000, these new features were built to help your team make faster, more confident decisions right where it matters most: in front of the customer.
Planograms That Predict the Future: AI Sales Forecasting Integration
The headline feature of this release is the integration of AI-powered sales forecasting into planogram generation. Now, instead of relying solely on historical data, retailers can generate planograms and floor plans based on expected future demand.
Let’s say your data shows that a certain snack brand is projected to spike in sales next month. With the new forecasting feature, LEAFIO AI will automatically allocate more facings to that item in high-traffic stores, ensuring visibility and reducing out-of-stocks when demand peaks.
Powered by LEAFIO Artificial intelligence, this future-oriented planning—at both the macro (store layout) and micro (shelf) levels—is especially powerful when used in combination with the LEAFIO Inventory Optimization module. It also supports a wide range of data integration possibilities, offering flexibility for retailers with existing analytics ecosystems.
“With this release, we’ve moved from reactive to proactive merchandising. Thanks to sales forecasting, we can now plan the number of facings more accurately, determine how planogram categories should be positioned, and identify whether further optimization is needed,” says Katarina Herikh, Product Manager at LEAFIO AI. “We’re giving retailers a tool that doesn’t just show how shelves performed—but how they will perform. It’s a game changer for profitability and customer satisfaction.”
Your Reports, Your Rules: New Custom Report Builder
Data has no value if you can’t make sense of it. That’s why we’ve added a Custom Report Builder to the BI Shelf module, giving users complete control over how they analyze performance.
Users can now select specific metrics like revenue, sales by meter/foot, profit, facing width, or stock balances, then apply filters such as store format, region, product category, or specific planograms. For example, a merchandising manager at a national grocery chain can quickly generate a report comparing sales by meter/foot by categories across urban and suburban formats—and then drill down into product-level performance in underperforming zones.
This is more than analytics—it’s insight on demand.
Rebuilt Print Module: Because Presentation Matters
Many retailers still rely on printed planograms for store execution, audits, or vendor communication. We listened to your feedback and completely redesigned the Print Module in both “Planogram” and “Floor plan" modes to be faster, more customizable, and visually aligned with your brand.
Now, you can:
- Create custom print settings profiles for different formats or regions
- Add your logo to exported documents for brand consistency
- Export to PDF in one click with all formatting in place
- Adjust everything from print quality to cell height and margins
- Customize and preview QR code printouts with specific headers, paper sizes, and font choices

We’re proud to bring these new capabilities to our customers worldwide—and we’re not done yet. These updates are just part of our ongoing mission to give retailers the tools they need to thrive in a fast-changing environment.
From AI-based planograms to better printouts, this release focuses on giving your team more control, insights, and results—with less manual effort.
