Specialty chemicals, pipe fittings, abrasives, advanced materials, adhesives, coatings, metals. Industries where technical specs drive pricing, catalogs run to 20,000+ SKUs, and the best account managers carry decades of tribal knowledge in their heads.

Weeks go by, multiple people, and customers get left in the dark.
Our AI agents run 24/7 doing this work. A week becomes five minutes. Win rates go up. Margin improves. Customers grow.
Deployed at F100 enterprises and mid-market manufacturers. Based in SF, growing fast.
