AI-native ERP for manufacturers
Smartbase is an AI-native ERP for manufacturers. We have traditional ERP features like inventory management, and we use AI to automate office work like quoting and order entry. In the past six weeks, we’ve grown from $0 to $171k in contracted ARR.
Smartbase is an AI-native ERP solution aimed at metal finishing shops, focused on automating and accelerating order entry and ERP data handling. It uses AI to extract data from POs, integrates with ERPs, and offers a dashboard for review and automatic traveler printing.
Upload scanned purchase orders, let the AI extract and normalize order data according to custom business rules, review and approve in a dashboard, and have the data pushed into your ERP with optional automatic traveler printing. Integrates with your ERP and can run within a dedicated ITAR/CMMC/DFARS-enabled enclave for secured environments.
Who it’s for: Metal finishing shops and manufacturers needing automated PO entry and ERP data handling, including those requiring secure, enclave-hosted solutions.
