Operating AI platform that automates sales order entry, accounts payable, purchasing, receiving, and part-number conversions for distributors and manufacturers.
Canals' operating AI reads customer requests in any format—including emails, PDFs, spreadsheets, handwritten notes, voicemails, and takeoffs—and drafts ERP-ready quotes and orders for rep review.
It also handles accounts-payable invoice processing, purchase-order and receipt tracking, and part-number conversions across manufacturers and formats. The product is designed for electrical, plumbing, mechanical, industrial/MRO, lumber/framing, and building-materials distributors.
