Alt Macros is a powerful analytics accelerator designed for businesses that need results fast, without the complexity, delays, or costs of building a full data team.


It provides ready-made analytics boosters: pre-configured modules that solve high-impact business challenges, such as sales forecasting, inventory optimisation, customer segmentation, and assortment analysis.
In traditional setups, these tasks require data engineers, analysts, dashboards, and weeks of fine-tuning. AltMacros simplifies the e process, delivering results in minutes through an intuitive interface and plug-and-play logic blocks.

 

How it works:

  • Connect your data sources (ERP, CRM, Excel, POS, databases, etc.)
  • Select a booster: for example, “ABC/XYZ assortment analysis” or “RFM segmentation”
  • AltMacros automatically  cleans your data, runs the model, and presents visual results
  • Export findings to Excel, Power BI, or your planning tool

 

Alt Macros is especially suited for:

  • Retail & FMCG businesses needing quick  insights into product rotation, sales performance, or replenishment
  • Marketing teams seeking better segmentation and churn prediction
  • SMEs lacking internal data science resources but wanting to make informed, evidence-based decisions
  • Consulting firms requiring fast, high- impact in short-term engagements

With its AI-powered anomaly detection, predictive algorithms, and natural-language reporting, AltMacros doesn’t just process data. It highlights what matters, flags issues, and suggests next steps.


In a world of overengineered data platforms, Alt Macros stands out as a fast, affordable, and effective alternative. It doesn’t aim to do everything: instead, it delivers 80% of the insight in 10% of the time.
