Capacity that knows itself.

FlowAI calculates with real productivity metrics from your running operation — how many parcels a full-time worker handles per month, how much capacity a part-time shift contributes. When order volume rises, FlowAI spots the gap before it becomes a bottleneck. No percentages — concrete steps: “You need one additional part-time worker starting next week to handle the volume without delays.”

Automated shift planning.

FlowAI creates the weekly roster. It knows the expected volume for each day, knows available staff with their hours and qualifications, and builds a shift plan that covers the load — no overstaffing on quiet days, no gaps when three large goods receipts arrive simultaneously. What used to take hours of manual puzzling on Monday morning is ready before the team arrives.

Changes happen? A sick call, an unexpected large order? FlowAI replans and suggests the best adjustment instantly.

Inbound scheduling.

Goods receipts set the rhythm of the warehouse. Uncontrolled, they pile up on some days and leave others empty. FlowAI actively schedules inbound deliveries: it distributes announced arrivals across the week, matches them with available staff capacity, and proposes each supplier a time slot that keeps operations flowing. The warehouse runs at steady utilization instead of waves of overload and idle time.

Daily work plans for inbound teams.

From the scheduled goods receipts, FlowAI builds concrete daily plans for inbound staff. It knows which delivery takes how long — a palletized standard shipment differs from a hundred individually inspectable cartons — and distributes work so every team member has a clear, achievable day ahead.

Each worker sees their plan in the morning: what’s coming, in what order, with what priority. No guessing, no idle time between tasks.

Workforce forecast.

FlowAI doesn’t just plan today — it thinks ahead. From volume trends it recognizes upcoming developments and translates them into staffing needs: which weeks require more hands, when a new hire is worth it, where the current team suffices.

Management sees not just how much work is coming, but what it costs and when the next step in workforce growth is needed — before the pressure builds, not after.
