Smartbase
YC Sp26Automated order entry for manufacturers
About
Smartbase automates order entry for manufacturers. Today, incoming purchase orders are still entered into the ERP by hand. This often requires multiple full-time employees, even at small manufacturers. Smartbase removes this manual work by automatically converting incoming purchase orders into ERP orders. We’ve worked on factory floors, sat side-by-side with employees to learn their workflows, and even slept at a factory. We’re now onboarding our first customers onto five-figure annual contracts. This is our wedge into automating the $26 billion clerical labor market in U.S. manufacturing. Sam previously founded a DevOps platform that raised $2M. Taira was the youngest SDE 2 at AWS SageMaker Inference, where he built AI infrastructure for enterprises such as Salesforce.
