Data IngestionFrequently asked
Questions from retail teams.
How do I know Bruin’s stock numbers are right?
Every answer shows the query and the POS, Shopify and NetSuite tables behind it. Sell-through, weeks of cover and like-for-like have one definition for stores and online, tested on every run.
Which retail systems does Bruin connect to?
Shopify, Lightspeed, Square, BigCommerce, Magento, WooCommerce, Amazon Seller Central, NetSuite, SAP HANA, Klaviyo and your warehouse. Footfall and supplier files load through SFTP or S3.
Can Bruin combine our store and online sales in one view?
Yes. Store sales from Lightspeed or Square, Shopify orders and NetSuite stock sit in one model, so each SKU has one view across stores, online and the DC.
Can Bruin suggest stock transfers between our stores?
Yes. It finds stores sitting on too many weeks of cover and stores about to run short, and drafts a transfer list for the allocation team.
Can Bruin check for weekend stockouts every week?
Yes. Schedule the top-SKU check for Thursday morning, or set a rule, like any bestseller under two weeks of cover, and Bruin posts it to #store-ops.
Can Bruin use footfall data to work out store conversion?
Yes. Footfall counter files load through SFTP or S3, and conversion is counted as transactions over footfall, the same way for every store.
Do we need a data team or data expertise to use Bruin?
No. Connect your POS, Shopify and NetSuite, then ask in Slack. If you have a data team, Bruin runs on their models and checks.
Can store managers use Bruin in WhatsApp or Microsoft Teams?
Yes. Bruin answers in Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram, email or the browser. Nobody has to learn a new tool.
How is Bruin different from Shopify or POS reports?
Those reports show one channel. Bruin joins stores, online, stock and marketing, and explains why a line sold out in one store and not another.
How is Bruin different from asking ChatGPT about our retail data?
A chat assistant only sees what you paste in. Bruin answers from your connected POS, Shopify and stock data, runs the query itself and shows its sources.
How much does Bruin cost, and is it per seat?
Bruin Cloud is free to start: $100 in credits and 50 AI tasks, no credit card. After that, compute is billed per second (about $2.50 an hour for SQL, $10 on a standard instance) and AI tasks cost $1 to $3 each, depending on complexity. Committed-use discounts lower the rate as usage grows. No seats.
Is our retail data safe with Bruin?
Bruin is SOC 2 Type 2 attested and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified. Your data is never used to train AI models.
