About Us

Who We Are

Since early 2009, KBM Advisers, a Chilean firm, has been at the forefront of solving complex commercial and operational challenges. We specialize in developing data-driven solutions through advanced mathematical analytics, sophisticated modeling, and applied Artificial Intelligence. Our mission is to transform complex problems into concrete, high-impact results.

Our partners bring decades of senior management experience from major corporations, as well as a strong academic background.

Our Technological Edge

Our team of engineers is highly skilled in advanced modeling, utilizing a state-of-the-art technology stack. We prioritize powerful, license-free, open-source tools to deliver maximum value without imposing additional software costs on our clients.

Core Languages & Libraries

Our entire workflow, from modeling to production deployment, is built on cutting-edge programs (Python, C++, C#) and libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch, H2O, Catboost, XGBoost, Prophet, Spacy, Hugging Face, LangChain, several Forecasting state-of-the-art models, etc.).

Cloud & Database Expertise

We have extensive experience working in major cloud environments (AWS, GCP, Azure) and with various database engines (SQL, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Hana, etc.).

Reporting & Visualization

We bring data to life using leading reporting tools like Power BI and Tableau.

Reference Cases & Bespoke Solutions

Commercial Intelligence

We design and implement custom, ad-hoc models to detect anomalies across various applications. Our systems are built to identify subtle, unusual patterns in vast datasets that often indicate fraud, waste, or operational inefficiencies. Key applications include:

  • Procurement Fraud Detecting potential illicit activities and irregularities in companies with high-volume purchasing.
  • Utility Fraud Identifying fraudulent customer behavior, such as meter tampering in service companies.
  • Last-Mile Logistics Uncovering anomalies in retail delivery operations to prevent fraud and optimize processes.

We harness the power of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to unlock insights from unstructured text data, turning language into a competitive advantage.

  • Automated Data Categorization: We have successfully classified hundreds of thousands of unstructured purchase orders by transforming inconsistent item descriptions into semantic embeddings (using Sentence Transformers) and applying clustering models. This automatically groups similar products and services into logical subfamilies, enabling streamlined analysis and paving the way for advanced applications like anomaly detection within specific product groups. purchasing. Identifying fraudulent customer behavior, such as meter tampering in service companies.
  • Custom LLM Tools: We develop custom tools based on Large Language Models for a wide range of business applications beyond generic chatbots.
  • Customer Behavior: Churn prediction, fraud detection, and customer value (LTV) models.
  • Advanced Segmentation: Psychographic, behavioral, and socio-demographic segmentation. RFM modeling to identify your most valuable customers.
  • Growth & Potential: Models to estimate growth potential by location and product category, and to segment commercial clients by current and potential value.
  • Sales Optimization: Up-selling, cross-selling, and product recommendation models.
  • Performance Analysis: Models to understand product/service performance and identify key variables affecting KPIs (market share, service quality, active clients, etc.).
  • Customer Acquisition: Modelos de «clientes clones» (look-alike) para encontrar perfiles similares y dirigir campañas, identificando nuevos clientes potenciales.
  • Micro-Territory Performance: Demand estimation, sales breakdown, market share analysis, and identification of sales gaps and growth potential.
  • Optimal Location Analysis: Análisis «Greenfield» para nuevas tiendas, puntos de venta o centros de servicio.
  • Customer Behavior Patterns: Understand where customers live and shop, and their purchasing patterns by day of the week and time slot across different segments.
  • Interactive Mapping: Development of dynamic dashboards with interactive maps (heatmaps, situational maps, etc.) to visualize results like customer churn density, demand intensity, and sales potential.

We implement advanced multivariate models that transform complex data into precise business projections, such as sales and demand. Our approach transcends traditional statistics to provide a solid foundation for Sales and Operational Planning (S&OP), including:

  • Strategic Multivariate Modeling: We integrate economic, social, and behavioral variables to capture critical interrelationships that directly impact sales volume and demand.
  • Adaptability to Market Disruptions: We utilize algorithms capable of learning non-linear patterns and adjusting to abrupt shifts in consumption, such as migratory phenomena or exogenous events.
  • Value Chain Optimization: We generate granular projections at the product and territory levels, enabling efficient management of inventories, operational capacity, and sales force.

  • Automation and Robustness: We reduce the need for constant manual adjustments, allowing the model to generalize and learn from data variability autonomously.

Our predictive maintenance programs help detect potential failures in equipment and components, enabling proactive corrective actions. This reduces critical equipment downtime and minimizes the risk of accidents.

We provide analytical tools that monitor the operating conditions of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic equipment using data from sensors, event histories, usage status, and manufacturer recommendations.

Our advanced AI models maintain continuous surveillance, alerting the appropriate personnel about equipment that requires inspection or maintenance. A key deliverable is the complete documentation of the knowledge generated by our technology, creating a valuable asset for continuous improvement.

  • Price Elasticity Modeling: We build advanced price/demand elasticity curves at any desired level (SKU, category), incorporating multiple variables like inflation, exchange rates, competitor pricing, and marketing investment.
  • Simulation Tools: We deliver a front-end simulator that allows users to test different scenarios by modifying input variables to estimate the impact on demand.
  • Network Analysis: Discover connections between followers, identify key communities, and find true positive and negative influencers using advanced graph theory algorithms.
  • Sentiment & Semantic Analysis: Automatically classify posts, emails, and comments by sentiment and topic to answer key questions:
    • What is being said about my brand?
    • What relevant segments exist among my social media followers?
    • How can I automatically categorize incoming customer communications?
  • Territory Optimization: Manage and optimize the geographic coverage of stores, sales points, and service centers.
  • Micro-Segmented Execution: Optimize product portfolios for individual stores in traditional channels through dynamic recommendation systems.
  • Margin Optimization: Comprehensive revenue management strategies.
