Don’t see your system? We still connect it.
If it has an API, exports CSV, or even just sends email — we can build a bridge to it. We’ve connected legacy ERP systems, custom databases, and industry-specific platforms that don’t appear on any “integrations” page.
Proprietary shop-floor systems, custom Access databases, AS/400 — we’ve seen it all.

What we do.
Focused AI automations that solve the problems your operations team deals with every day. No bloated platforms. No learning curve.
Power Platform Automation
Invoices arrive by email, your team types them into Dynamics 365, then copies the PO number into a spreadsheet. We build Power Automate flows that read, extract, and route — no retyping.
Learn moreCopilot & AI Agents
Approvals sitting in someone’s inbox for days? We build Copilot Studio agents and Power Automate workflows that handle multi-step processes — pulling data from Dynamics, routing exceptions to your team in Teams.
Learn moreAzure Integration
SharePoint doesn’t talk to your ERP. Dynamics doesn’t sync with your warehouse system. We wire your Microsoft stack to the rest of your operation so data flows once.
Learn moreAzure AI & Document Intelligence
Generic AI gets you 70% accuracy on your BOLs and invoices. We train Azure AI models on YOUR formats — your vendor layouts, your PO structures, your packing slips — 95%+ accuracy.
Learn morePower BI & Analytics
Stop guessing how much inventory to order. We pull your Dynamics, SharePoint, or ERP data into Power BI dashboards and forecasting models — demand planning, revenue projections, stock optimization.
Learn moreAI Team Training
Your team doesn’t need to become data scientists. We teach practical Microsoft AI skills — Copilot, Power Automate, prompt engineering, and when to automate vs. when not to.
