Beyond the POS: CDE Solutions and Bodega AI Partner to Bring Artificial Intelligence to Everyday Retail Operations

The partnership combines CDE Solutions' expertise in payments and retail operations with Bodega AI's AI POS to provide merchants with real-time business insights that go far beyond traditional point-of-sale functionality.

The combined solution pairs Bodega AI's AI POS with CDE Solutions' payment acceptance, including EBT SNAP, giving independent retailers one platform for every way their customers pay.

Rather than simply recording transactions, CHEXIT AI continuously analyzes sales trends, inventory movement, customer purchasing patterns, and store performance to deliver intelligent recommendations that help retailers make smarter decisions every day. The platform can identify top-performing products, highlight slow-moving inventory, uncover missed revenue opportunities, and provide guidance on purchasing and merchandising strategies.

Through the partnership, merchants gain access to a unified platform that combines payment processing, including EBT SNAP, inventory management, and AI-driven business intelligence. By transforming complex business data into clear, actionable insights, CHEXIT AI empowers retailers to make faster, more informed decisions without requiring extensive analysis or technical expertise.

As independent retailers navigate rising costs, labor challenges, and evolving consumer demand, CHEXIT AI serves as a virtual business advisor, helping merchants spend less time interpreting reports and more time acting on opportunities. The platform's intelligent recommendations enable store owners to reduce inventory inefficiencies, improve product availability, increase sales, and strengthen margins.

"At CDE Solutions, our goal is to help merchants harness the power of their data," said Joe Cohane, CEO of CDE Solutions. "Through our partnership with Bodega AI, we're putting advanced artificial intelligence directly into the hands of independent retailers, giving them practical recommendations that help optimize inventory, identify growth opportunities, improve operational performance, and drive profitability."

"Most store owners are still running their business on the equivalent of a flip phone: a register that records sales but can't tell them what to do next," said Jason Diaz, Founder of Bodega AI. "CDE Solutions has earned the trust of tens of thousands of independent merchants. Together, we're putting an AI POS on their counters that tells owners what products to carry, what to drop, and where they're leaving money on the table."

Through this collaboration, CDE Solutions will make CHEXIT AI available to retailers seeking more than a legacy POS. The platform delivers AI-powered intelligence designed to help merchants understand what is happening in their business and what actions they can take to improve results.
