Consumer expectations for variety, freshness, and instant gratification have created unprecedented challenges for today’s omnichannel retailers—skyrocketing inventory levels, tied-up capital, and shrinking margins. It is estimated that 15-30% of manufactured clothing is never sold, going straight to waste. Traditional forecast-based inventory management systems have locked retailers into rigid, inefficient execution schemes, resulting in stock imbalances, missed sales, and excessive overhead.
“Retailers today don’t need more data—they need intelligent AI-driven execution,” said Dr. Yishai Ashlag, CEO and Co-founder of Onebeat. “That’s why we built Onebeat as a new kind of AI-powered retail operating system—one that translates data into real-time, revenue-driving execution. This investment from Schooner Capital is more than capital—it’s a powerful vote of confidence in our global impact and our vision. With their support, we’re ready to scale our momentum and bring agile, intelligent retail to the U.S. market.”

“Onebeat has demonstrated exceptional leadership, cutting-edge technology, and impressive momentum,” said Orhan Gazelle, Managing Director at Schooner Capital. “We’re excited to support their expansion and be part of their journey as they expand into the U.S. market and revolutionize retail operations on a global scale.”
“Onebeat gave us a common language across production, logistics, and sales—so we could chase one goal: never run out of stock,” said Kenichi Koyama and Daisuke Ihara, Group Manager, Panasonic Japan. “Inventory became visible, actions clear, and excess slashed. Now, we’re faster, leaner, and ready for whatever demand throws at us.”
Already trusted by more than 220 retailers worldwide, Onebeat empowers retail organizations to act quickly, adapt in real-time, and maximize profitability through precise inventory flow. This U.S. launch positions the company to serve a growing base of omnichannel, specialty, and department store retailers navigating rising consumer expectations, supply chain disruptions, and tightening margins.
