Atomic
Built by ex-Tesla supply chain leaders, Atomic uses agentic AI to simplify inventory planning and optimize capital allocation.

Atomic acts like a real-time planning assistant—simulating inventory scenarios in seconds, cutting excess stock while preserving service levels, and giving planners precision control over AI-generated plans.
What Makes This Tool Different
Atomic was born from the chaos of Tesla’s Model 3 ramp-up. Its founders, ex-Tesla supply chain leaders, rebuilt the planning process from the ground up—now they’re applying that same orchestration model to modern businesses. The software combines a flexible data model, agent-based AI, and deep planner control to simulate, stress test, and optimize inventory plans—turning weeks of work into real-time what-if analysis.
