Innovation That Aligns with Retail’s Needs

Built for Omnichannel Retail:

KIBO supports BOPIS, ship-from-store, curbside, and store delivery through a dedicated fulfiller UI featuring pick-wave creation, product substitutions, configurable SLAs, and real-time shipment visibility. Shipment-consolidation logic reduces split orders and shipping costs, and a reverse logistics module supports returns automation, fraud reduction, and disposal optimization.

Retail-First: Unified Commerce, One Data Model:

KIBO’s order management runs on the same platform and shared data model as KIBO Commerce and KIBO Subscriptions, giving midsize-to-large B2C and multichannel retailers a single architecture spanning commerce, order management, and subscriptions – the same foundation that also supports B2B commerce.

Order Orchestration Powered by Generative AI:

At the center of the platform is a centralized rules engine that governs safety stock, pick-wave creation, handling fees, and order-routing logic across every fulfillment channel, configurable by business users without code changes. The Order Routing Explain Agent brings natural-language transparency to routing decisions, alongside KIBO’s CSR Agent, Shopper Agent, and Analytics Explain Agent – all part of KIBO’s Agentic Commerce capabilities, live in production today.

Connected Ecosystem:

Through KIBO Connect Hub, KIBO gives retailers access to more than 3,300 trading partners, 80+ WMS and 3PL connectors, 100+ shipping carriers, and 950+ marketplaces through a single integration layer, with deployments spanning 53+ countries.

Why We Believe This Matters

Choosing an order management partner is about more than a feature checklist – it comes down to whether the platform can keep pace with how retailers actually operate today, and how they’ll need to operate tomorrow. This is where we believe KIBO’s recognition as a Leader speaks loudest.

According to the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide AI-Enabled Order Orchestration and Fulfillment Applications for Retail and B2C, 2026 Vendor Assessment (IDC #US53010725, July 2026), “The platform’s centralized rules engine, agentic order routing with natural-language explainability, and the road map to autonomous tuning agents and demand forecasting position Kibo meaningfully ahead in AI-driven fulfillment decisioning relative to most OMS peers.”

We believe this recognition reflects KIBO’s ongoing commitment to giving retailers an order orchestration platform that keeps pace with how commerce works today, and how it will need to work in the future. We’re continuing to invest in KIBO’s agentic capabilities across the full order lifecycle, and there’s more on the way.
