About Tightly

Retail planning, reconciled.

Tightly is the connected planning platform for modern retail and DTC brands — a bottom-up demand forecast married to a top-down financial plan, kept reconciled live by specialist agents.

Why we built Tightly

Every retail business runs two plans, and they never agree.

The CFO has a number for next quarter. The head of merchandising has a different number. Both are correct inside their own system. The two meet in a meeting on Tuesday — the reconciliation tax — and produce a third number that's stale by Friday.

Every brand we've worked with knows this gap. Most have tried to fix it with another spreadsheet, another BI dashboard, another monthly review. None of those close the gap, because the gap isn't a meetings problem — it's a tools problem.

Tightly was built to close it. One forecast at SKU and channel level feeds one financial plan. Open-to-buy reconciles between them in real time. The buy starts from real demand. The team works on decisions, not on reconciliation.

What we believe

Four principles shape how we build.

Plan on a forecast you can trust

The plan should run on a bottom-up demand forecast at SKU and channel level — not on last year plus a percentage. If the forecast and the financial plan don't agree, the buy was already wrong.

Reconciliation is the work

Most retail planning teams spend half the week reconciling spreadsheets. That work is invisible, expensive, and produces a number that's already stale. Reconciliation should be live, not a meeting.

Agents work the plan, the team makes the calls

Specialist agents take the repetitive reconciliation, rebalancing and re-forecasting under policies the team sets. People stay in charge of the judgment calls. Every action carries an audit trail.

Adaptable to how you actually plan

No two retail businesses plan the same way. Tightly is configurable in the planner's own language, not in a vendor's formula language. The team changes the plan as the business changes — no change request, no professional services bill.
