About Us

ketteQ was founded to address a fundamental reality: traditional supply chain planning systems were never designed for constant change. As volatility became the norm, static models and periodic replanning proved insufficient for managing the real-world complexities, risks, and performance.

Built by industry veterans with decades of experience in supply chain planning, enterprise software, and advanced analytics, ketteQ reflects deep firsthand knowledge of both the strengths and limitations of legacy planning approaches. That experience led to an AI native architecture, not bolted on top of a legacy stack but built into the foundation from day one: Quintus™, the only Free-Range AI™ for supply chain, reasoning over any question, executing any action, and addressing any use case, unscripted and fully governed.

The name is not incidental. Quintus™ is to ketteQ what Claude is to Anthropic: when someone uses it, they say they asked Quintus™, not that they used the ketteQ Stack. Quintus™ is the name of the intelligence, not the platform it runs on. Ask Quintus™ anything about your supply chain, in plain language, and get a fully reasoned answer, unscripted.

Powered by PolymatiQ™, ketteQ's patent-pending solver, Quintus™ runs thousands of constrained scenarios simultaneously and returns the optimal answer in seconds, then orchestrates the response across demand, supply, inventory, capacity, and customer commitments, continuously, not on a planning cycle.

Quintus™ is designed for flexibility. It deploys above whatever you already run, augmenting existing planning systems without disruptive rip-and-replace transformations. The same intelligence also runs natively as ketteQ's end-to-end Planning Solutions and Execution Solutions, for organizations ready to replace manual, spreadsheet-based processes or systems that have stopped scaling.

Whether augmenting what exists or powering a modern planning foundation, ketteQ provides the only Free-Range AI™ for supply chain, already running in production with customers across manufacturing, consumer goods, automotive, and distribution, one that evolves at each organization's pace and prepares them for whatever comes next.
