Clear boundaries before launch
What it will not do
The agent reports from approved distributor sources; it does not guarantee inventory, supplier performance, allocation, pricing, delivery, carrier, credit, or customer commitments, authorize substitutions or credits, make purchasing or account-priority decisions, provide legal advice, expose commercial information beyond configured permissions, or replace buyers, sales teams, warehouse staff, or operations managers. Human review remains required for shortages, conflicting records, pricing and credit decisions, priority disputes, supplier changes, complaints, and delivery or safety concerns.
How success is measured
Measure time spent locating order and allocation status, percentage of updates tied to timestamped events, supplier-confirmation freshness, allocation-to-ship visibility, backorder age, delivery-exception age, customer follow-up volume, stale-status rate, and escalation accuracy.
Frequently asked questions
Can it track a wholesale order from supplier confirmation through delivery?
Yes. It can summarize approved milestones across confirmation, allocation, replenishment, receipt, pick, shipment, delivery, backorder, and exception handling when the relevant sources are connected.
Can sales teams and customers receive different updates?
Yes. The workflow can use separate formats and permissions for purchasing, sales, branch teams, warehouse staff, suppliers, carriers, and customers.
Will it promise inventory or delivery dates that are not confirmed?
No. It can distinguish confirmed events from estimates, show the source and timestamp configured for the workflow, and route uncertainty or conflicting records for human review.
Can it handle shortages, backorders, or substitutions?
It can identify and organize them, prepare context, and route them to the configured owner. A human must approve allocation, substitution, pricing, credit, and customer-commitment decisions.
Can it connect to our ERP and supplier systems?
The implementation can be tailored to approved ERP, order-management, inventory, purchasing, supplier, warehouse, carrier, CRM, accounting, email, and messaging systems within the agreed scope.
How is the monthly price determined?
The starting price is $300 USD/month. The final tailored proposal depends on workflows, integrations, data access, usage, hosting, implementation, and ongoing support.
