ThroughPut and Aankhen launch breakthrough SKU-level tariff management decision acceleration product
Leveraging CFO-approved data for proactive & targeted management of global & local material strategy
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ThroughPut.AI, the supply chain decision intelligence pioneer, today announced a strategic partnership with Aankhen, a financial supply chain software platform integrating procurement, logistics, and finance costs through digital twin technology, to deliver the most advanced Tariffs financial mitigation solution and bridge the gap between operational efficiency and financial liquidity across global supply chains.
The joint offering combines ThroughPut's real-time AI-driven supply chain decision intelligence and inventory optimization capabilities with Aankhen's fiChains™ financial supply chain digital twin technology to provide actionability into the flow of capital across complex supply chains and establish a sustainable and continuously scalable global solution to address Tariffs uncertainty. By integrating these powerful solutions, Aankhen's fiChains™ solution will provide financial costs at a SKU level to ThroughPut to optimize inventory, pricing, and profitability and ThroughPut's Decision Intelligence Platform will empower organizations with strategic and holistic AI-powered, prioritized recommendations to unlock working capital, increase procurement agility, and reduce operational risk - all without increasing complexity or manual intervention.
"Since the tariffs started, ThroughPut's customers have been asking for an advanced tariff management solution that provides the best "new price" estimate of an item," said Ali Raza, CEO and Founder of ThroughPut.AI. "A lot of companies need to re-examine every item that they sell and source, especially whether it makes sense to stress-test pricing or eliminate the offering altogether. After searching the entire market, we realized Aankhen was the only company that had these capabilities. Current ThroughPut users can leverage Aankhen's fiChains offering to enable proactiveness and accelerate reactiveness. Aankhen CEO Subhash Chowdary has a track record of transforming supply chains for companies like Nestle, Lockheed, Dell, and other leading supply chains. We have started our Go-To-Market process to get this joint-offering to the right decision makers. If you are a CFO who wants to focus on the right items and get the numbers right, we can make an impact before the August 1st deadline".
