Lyric has been included as an Example Vendor in the 2026 Gartner Market Overview for Integrated Supply Chain AI Agents, and is listed among the AI-native orchestration platforms in the report.

About the report

Gartner published the report on 28 October 2026. The market definition in the report reads:

“Gartner defines integrated supply chain AI agents as autonomous or semiautonomous software embedded in broader vendor solutions that perceives, decides, and acts across workflows alongside humans. Ranging from advisory tools and simple orchestration to expert agents and autonomous ecosystems, they progress from rule-based guidance to multistep reasoning and domain specialization, improving decision quality while reducing human intervention and enhancing service, cost to serve, and resilience.”

Our view

The supply chain decisions that matter never stay in one function.

We believe the costliest supply chain decisions are made in one function and paid for in another. A change in demand becomes a production plan, a freight bill and a working capital number within days. When each team settles its own piece alone, the business pays for the gaps between them.

Fortune 500 brands run supply chain decisions on Lyric Studio, from network design and sourcing to supply and production planning, inventory, transportation and order promising. Under every one of them sits one standard supply chain data model.

“To solve any unique problem, be it supply, demand, inventory or transportation, you have to put the algorithms together and daisy chain them,” says Ganesh Ramakrishna, our founder and CEO. “There are decisions to be made in every zone, from planning the supply chain to modeling it to running it. Agents are what make that sophisticated math accessible to planners and decision makers. When algorithms and agents work together, a supply chain gets the value it is looking for.”
