Amazon announced new agentic supply chain capabilities for inbound planning and aged inventory management within Seller Assistant, an AI-powered tool in Seller Central (Supply Chain Dive - Technology). Over time, these capabilities will expand into a personalized advisor showing inventory location, providing proactive alerts, and explaining the data behind recommendations (Supply Chain Dive - Technology).
The rollout is part of a broader suite of seller tools aimed at global expansion. Amazon is creating a unified interface to track shipments across fulfillment centers and introducing consolidated compliance views to help sellers manage requirements across multiple countries (Supply Chain Dive - Technology). Sellers who participated in the pilot for one-submission testing reported savings of up to 60% on compliance costs (Supply Chain Dive - Technology). For commerce practitioners, AI-driven supply chain visibility and automated compliance handling reduce operational friction and lower the cost of international expansion.
Amazon is also expanding its Global Warehousing and Distribution service to enable sellers to maintain a single global inventory pool rather than sending separate shipments to individual countries (Supply Chain Dive - Technology). The compliance feature is currently available for toys, with expansion to electronics and baby products planned by year-end.
