Sophus Product Update: What’s New in the Latest Release – V5.1

Sophus continues to strengthen its position as a modern, cloud-native platform for supply chain decision intelligence. The latest platform update introduces a set of powerful capabilities designed to help teams move faster, collaborate better, and make more confident decisions across network design, planning, and optimization.

Smarter scenario modeling and data control

Users can now assign values across compliant fields directly within Scenario Items, making scenario setup faster and more flexible. Cascade data deletion ensures master data changes remain clean and consistent across related tables, reducing manual cleanup and modeling risk.

Faster decisions with improved run management

The Run Queue experience has been optimized with smarter filtering by applicable algorithms and quick access to recent submissions. This helps teams spend less time managing runs and more time analyzing results.

Expanded mapping and geographic intelligence

Global geocoding and distance calculations are now supported through additional map services. New tools like service-area circles, enriched map icons, and enhanced comparison maps make it easier to visualize differences across scenarios and networks.

AI Assistant upgrades for better insights and control

The AI Assistant now delivers formatted summaries, supports Google Gemini, and allows separate prompt settings for charts and summaries. New privacy controls also give organizations full authority over what data can be shared with LLMs.

Stronger BI and analytics capabilities

Custom BI now includes Sankey and Bar Waterfall charts, faster save actions, and preserved data across tabs. Demand Map BI has been expanded to include non-customer site types, enabling richer demand analysis.

Enterprise-ready security and integration

This release adds OIDC-based SSO, Azure Key Vault integration, and updated Azure Maps APIs, reinforcing Sophus’ commitment to enterprise-grade security and scalability.

We believe these updates will make your day-to-day work smoother and more reliable, especially when it comes to connecting and managing data. Each improvement is built to reduce friction, speed up workflows, and help you get to answers faster. We’ll keep raising the bar with every release, so Sophus continues to feel easier to use, more powerful, and ready for the decisions you need to make.
