Problem
Manufacturers, brands, distributors and suppliers often struggle with fragmented supply‑chain data spread across ERP, WMS, email and other systems, leading to manual data entry, delayed insights and duplicated effort in procurement, logistics and quality processes.
Solution
Tenkara offers an AI‑driven command center that aggregates data from ERP, WMS, email and other sources into a single, up‑to‑date repository. Users can pose natural‑language queries—such as cost, inventory or supplier performance—and receive answers backed by source receipts. Custom AI agents automate repetitive tasks like supplier outreach, freight quoting, quality checks and production scheduling, eliminating the need for manual intervention. The platform provides modular workflows covering intelligence, procurement, freight, demand planning, production, financials and more, all orchestrated from a unified interface.
