This quarter is about clarity and faster action. Below is what\u2019s new at Rithum and what\u2019s next for retailers and brands. Items are grouped so teams can jump straight to what they need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For retailers: new visibility now, shipping upgrades next <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

New Retailer Home Page <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get a near real-time view across the full order lifecycle, from pick-pack-ship through delivery. Start at a network-level overview, then drill into supplier summaries and order-level details to triage what\u2019s late, at risk, or stalled. It\u2019s built for scale and mirrors how teams actually work: network view to supplier view to order. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Package Predictor <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powered by RithumIQ, Package Predictor automatically predicts package weights and dimensions based on real-world shipping behaviors. For retailers using Shipping Optimization, those predictions flow into the label printing process to reduce manual guessing and avoid costly mis-selections. Accuracy stats are forthcoming once broader rollout data is in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming soon for retailers <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shipping Optimization Control Center<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update shipping logic in the platform instead of downloading and re-uploading spreadsheets. Manage supplier defaults, delivery rules, and order conditions in one place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shipping Label Workspace<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

See predicted shipments in one view with confidence indicators, then move trusted batches faster while reviewing edge cases. It pairs with Package Predictor so weights and dimensions appear alongside each label.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Retailer Chatbot<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In pilot now with several of our retailers. You can ask questions like \u201cWhat were my top-selling SKUs two weeks ago?\u201d and pull platform guidance such as how to run supplier promotions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For brands: normalized financials, new marketplaces, and new locales <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
