Retail is a thin-margin business run across a physical store estate, an e-commerce site, a quick-commerce operation and a fulfilment network that all sell the same item. The margin is not made in one place: it is assembled from supplier trading terms, the price on the shelf, the cost of getting a unit to a door and the value recovered when it comes back — and each of those sits in a different system, in a different format, as a document nobody re-reads. Sovereignty bites here because the material that decides all of it — POS transactions, supplier contracts and rebate schedules, planograms, loyalty histories and returns records — is at once your commercial position against your suppliers and a file of personal data about your customers.
Neor builds the stack underneath that work and runs it on hardware you own, inside your own jurisdiction. Document intelligence over supplier agreements, leases and freight paperwork; retrieval grounded in your own circulars, planograms and product specifications; forecasting, optimisation and graph models trained on your POS, loyalty and returns history — all served from accelerators you own, assembled from open, auditable components, with every prompt, cited source and model version recorded inside the boundary. One platform can carry a voice assistant for a colleague on the shop floor, a claim built against a supplier and a catalogue rebuilt so a machine can read it, because what differs between them is the data and the constraint, not the infrastructure. The map runs to 47 use cases across 13 business functions, 14 of them Tier-1; we build them one at a time, on your hardware, and hand the platform to your engineers with the source, the runbooks and the operating knowledge to run and extend it.
