The reliable spine
The non-AI spine is the source-linked workflow: clean records, rules, calculations, integrations, exception queues, approvals and reporting for Connect and automate the customs, ERP and bank silos.
Exporters & Import Trading Houses
Connect and automate the customs, ERP and bank silos
The business runs on five or six systems that do not talk: the clearing agent's customs filing, the forwarder's tracking, the accounting or ERP system, the bank's realization records and the incentive portals. A person is the integration layer, re-typing a shipping bill into the ERP, re-entering a realization into the accounts, keying a scrip claim from a portal export. It is slow and error-prone, the same figure ends up different in two systems, and the work breaks whenever the person who carries it is away.
Who has it
Import and distribution houses, where the silo problem is sharpest, merchant exporters, and any trading house where a person hand-carries data between the clearing agent's filing, the ERP, the bank and the incentive portals.
What we build
Deterministic, event-driven flows between the systems already in place, mapped, tested and monitored, with clear handling when a system is down or a record does not match, so a cleared shipment, a realization or a scrip update flows to the other systems on its own. This is distinct from the connected data layer: the data layer gives one source-linked view to read, while this moves events between the systems so each stays current without a person re-keying.
What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.
Where AI helps
AI is limited to bounded reading, extraction, matching, clustering or drafting from the firm's own data for Connect and automate the customs, ERP and bank silos; it never owns the number, the approval, the promise or the decision.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
What changes day to day
An event in one system flows to the others on its own; the team stops being the integration layer and the same figure stops disagreeing across tools; the work no longer breaks when one person is away.
Illustrative outcome
Manual re-keying between customs, ERP, bank and portals largely removed. Illustrative; final numbers come from your own data.
