What You Get
AI Order Desk
Reorder lists, blanket releases and one-off emails become sales orders in your ERP.
AI Procurement Desk
The long tail of small supplier invoices matched to the receipt before payment.
An MRO distributor handles many small orders: general hardware, tools, PPE and janitorial supplies, sent as reorder lists, blanket releases and one-off emails.
UpBrains AI reads each one, matches the lines to your catalog, catches duplicates and files the clean orders while a rep handles the rest.
Supplier invoices for the same long tail of items match their receipts before they are paid.
Your Records and Standards
Facility buyers reorder the same items on blanket orders and lists, so small lines arrive all week and each one has to come back at the agreed price.

Frequently Asked Questions
How are reorder lists and blanket releases handled?
A reorder list or a release against a blanket order is read from the email or its attachment, and each line of general hardware, tools, PPE or janitorial supplies is matched to your item. Pricing and availability are read from your ERP before the write.
Does it work alongside a punchout catalog?
Yes. Orders from a punchout catalog keep their own route, and this handles the ones that come by email or as EDI 850. Your team sees both in the ERP.
Is it worth automating a small order?
An MRO order is often a handful of low-value lines, so the keying time is the cost. Clean orders can file without review, and only the exceptions wait for a rep.
Can it catch a duplicate reorder?
Yes. Duplicates are caught before the write, so two people at one site sending the same reorder list reach a rep as one question. The rep decides which order stands.
