Industry solution in preparation: Retail
Run the retailer on governed AI.MeshRetail is ASP™, the Arrochar Superintelligence Platform, packaged for retail.
The platform packaged for the operations of a retailer: merchandising and range, pricing and promotions, supply and replenishment, store operations, returns and customer care, loss prevention, franchise and the reporting a consumer regulator expects, as governed AI services on one platform.
For retail chains, grocers, marketplaces, franchisors and the supply chains behind them.
What exists today, and what does not
This package is named and its scope is written. The service catalogue, the service pages, the agents, the gates and the evidence records are not yet built, and nothing runs for a customer. The rails it will run on, AIG Sentinel and Meshbone, exist today and are the same rails MeshGov runs on. When the first service is built we will say which one, and until then the status on this page stays as it is.
What the MeshRetail catalogue is being written to cover
The operations of retail, as governed AI services. Each line below will become one or more services in the catalogue, with its own page naming the agents, the decisions that stay with a person, the records it keeps and the standards it is mapped to. Until then this is scope, not a product.
- Range, merchandising and supplier onboarding: the product record, the terms and the compliance evidence
- Pricing and promotions: proposals prepared by agents, approved by a person, with the consumer-law checks built in
- Supply, replenishment and inventory: forecasts, orders, receipts and the exceptions raised for review
- Store operations: rostering, tasks, compliance checks and incident reporting
- Returns, warranties and customer care: resolved at first contact, within the consumer guarantee rules
- Loss prevention: indicators raised for a person to review, never an accusation made by an agent
- Franchise and partner management: agreements, obligations, fees and the record of disclosure
- Reporting to the consumer regulator, the suppliers and the board, from one evidence chain
The baseline we expect to align to
We expect to align data exchange to the GS1 standards for product, location and shipment identification and to take each jurisdiction's consumer law and franchising code as the policy source. The choice of baseline is not final and will be stated on the service pages when the catalogue is published.
The same way as MeshGov and MeshFin
Every industry solution follows one formula. AIG Sentinel defines the policy, Meshbone enforces it at run time, Nanolitte carries the controls into reusable service templates, Databallast controls what data the agents may access, AgentGUARD™ guards every agent, and the evidence chain records what happened. The catalogue for this industry will name its services, the decisions that stay with a person, and the standards it is mapped to, service by service, exactly as the MeshFin catalogue does for banking.
How it fits together
Not just AI agents. An architecture for accountable ones.
Each part of ASP™ does one job, in order, and hands the next part something it can check. That is the difference between building AI agents and running them so an auditor, a regulator or a minister can see what happened.
Before the first build, Orbit Roadmaps finds where AI creates value and profiles the risk.
After it, Execdive turns what the chain recorded into plain-language insight for executives.
Policy, enforcement, templates, data, controls, evidence. Then services.
This describes the architecture, not what every deployment runs today: 5 of the 27 AgentGUARD™ controls are still in development.
- AIG Sentineldefines policy
- Meshboneenforces policy at run time
- Nanolittecarries the controls into reusable service templates
- Databallastcontrols what data the agent may access
- AgentGUARD™is the cross-platform control setAcross every step
- Evidence chainrecords what happened
- MeshGovuses the whole thing for government services
- MeshFinuses the whole thing for banking and financial services
