Abstract

Objective: The development of predictive software using artificial intelligence (AI) has brought about a significant shift in business environments: procedures have been refined, operating costs minimized, and decision-making processes made more precise. Methodology: This review examines 38 studies published in prestigious academic databases between 2020 and 2025, analyzing how the use of predictive models and machine learning algorithms influences contemporary business management. Results: Findings indicate that integrating intelligent systems helps forecast market behavior, fine-tune supply chains, identify risks, and create personalized, data-driven strategies. Furthermore, the use of predictive software is shown to enhance organizational competitiveness by increasing efficiency and adaptability in changing contexts. Discussion: However, challenges regarding data privacy, algorithmic transparency, and technological dependency are also identified. Conclusion: AI-driven predictive software innovation is a key tool for digital transformation and business sustainability, provided its implementation is accompanied by appropriate and ethical regulatory policies. Contribution: Investment in digital infrastructure, continuous training, and data management are established as fundamental pillars for ensuring the effective, secure, and sustainable adoption of these technological innovations within the global business landscape.
