AI for manufacturers & distributors

Keep orders, suppliers, and invoices moving without adding headcount.

Coworkers that work your ERP the way your best coordinator does. They match invoices, chase suppliers, answer “where’s my order,” and prep quotes, with exceptions routed to people.

§ 01Where the hours go

The work that quietly eats your week.

  • Three-way match backlog

    AP staff key and match invoices by hand, and the exceptions pile up at month end.

  • Order-status interruptions

    Customer service spends hours answering “where’s my order” from three different screens.

  • Supplier silence

    Late confirmations and slipping ship dates get noticed when production is already waiting.

  • Slow quotes

    Custom quotes need specs, costs, and lead times from several systems, so they take days.

§ 02What it takes on

Jobs a digital coworker can own.

Each of these is a defined job with inputs, steps, approvals, and a verified result. Start with one, and add more once it’s earning its keep.
  1. 01

    Invoice-to-PO matching

    Matches invoices to POs and receipts and routes price and quantity variances for approval.

  2. 02

    Order status answers

    Replies to status requests from ERP and carrier data and flags at-risk orders.

  3. 03

    Supplier follow-up

    Chases confirmations and ship dates and warns planners about slippage early.

  4. 04

    Quote preparation

    Assembles specs, costs, and lead times into a draft quote for sales approval.

  5. 05

    Inventory exceptions

    Reviews reorder and stock exceptions daily and proposes actions.

  6. 06

    Quality paperwork

    Compiles certificates, inspection records, and NCR documentation for each shipment.

§ 03Who does what

The coworker does the legwork. Your people make the calls.

The coworker handles

  • Matching and data entry
  • Supplier and status chasing
  • Draft quotes
  • Exception lists

Your team handles

  • Payment and pricing approval
  • Supplier negotiations
  • Production decisions
  • Quality sign-off

Anything consequential or irreversible (money, commitments, customer-facing promises) waits for a person. You decide where those lines are, and the coworker’s permissions are cut to match.

§ 04Your systems

It works in the software you already run.

  • NetSuite
  • Epicor
  • Dynamics 365 Business Central
  • SAP Business One
  • Acumatica
  • Infor
  • Excel
  • Outlook

If your system has an API, we connect to it. If it only has a web interface your team uses, we can usually turn those steps into a tested tool. Either way, the coworker gets only the access its job needs.

§ 06Private by design

Sensitive data stays where it belongs.

Every coworker runs in its own isolated workstation with deny-first networking. Models are open-weight by default, served on your hardware or by zero-data-retention providers. Everything we build is yours to keep.

§ 07FAQ

Common questions, answered.

Does it replace our ERP’s automation?

No. It handles the judgment work around it: exceptions, follow-ups, and the steps your ERP workflows can’t make sense of.

Can it run on-premises?

Yes. For plants with strict network rules, the coworker, its memory, and its models can run entirely inside your network.

Will it approve invoices?

It prepares matches and routes variances. Payment approval stays with the people you designate, within thresholds you set.
