About the Company

Spherecast is building Agnes, the AI Supply Chain Manager for Consumer Goods.

Agnes decides what to produce, where to make it, and how to move it through factories, warehouses, and channels – simulating thousands of options in seconds and executing the best plan.

We are building Agnes to shape the physical flow of goods in the world, turning it into something as programmable as code.

When we succeed, every consumer product you touch will run on the Spherecast stack – planned in the Spherecast OS, executed over Spherecast Rails, and optimized by the shared Spherecast Network.

Oracle turned atoms into bits. Spherecast turns bits back to atoms, but globally optimized.

Tech Stack

At Spherecast, we’re building the AI Supply Chain Manager that actually runs how physical goods move through the world.

On the tech side, that means:

  • AI agents that act, not just predict

    Orchestrating decisions like production, transfers, and freight booking across fragmented ERPs, 3PLs, and co-manufacturers, with humans in the loop where it matters.

  • High-performance, safety-critical software

    Low-latency services and data pipelines that integrate with systems like NetSuite, process multi-tenant customer data at scale, and remain robust when the real world is messy.

  • Optimization & operations research in production

    Using OR, heuristic search, and constraint solving to find globally good plans (what to make, where, and when) under capacity, lead-time, and shelf-life constraints, not just local tweaks.

  • Forecasting, simulation & explainability

    Probabilistic demand forecasts, scenario engines (“what if growth is +20%?”), and explainable AI so planners can see why a recommendation is safe to trust.

We’re still early. The people who join now will own major parts of this architecture and grow into the technical and product leaders who define how “AI runs supply chains” for the next century.

Paul always wanted to work on his own projects. After building some small apps as side projects, he co-founded a software agency alongside his studies and scaled it to multiple 100k in total revenue. This helped him sharpen his skill set in full-stack development, design, and entrepreneurship. Now at Spherecast, he's responsible for building a product our customers love.
