View case studySupply’d Intelligence works within the workflows your team already uses rather than operating as a separate chatbot or reporting tool. It reads incoming documents, analyses demand and operational data, and prepares practical recommendations across sales, purchasing, production and delivery.
Customers email their purchase orders to your Smart Order Inbox, where Supply’d Intelligence reads the document and identifies the customer, products, quantities, pricing and delivery information. A sales order is created ready for review, reducing manual entry while keeping your team in control before the order enters fulfilment. The existing page already describes this PDF-to-order workflow.

Upload or email supplier invoices and let Supply’d Intelligence extract the supplier, invoice details, products, quantities, pricing and charges. Supply’d compares the invoice with the purchase order and stock received, highlighting quantity or price discrepancies before the expense is approved. It can also help update future purchasing costs and allocate landed costs using the connected transaction data. The current page presents these capabilities under automated accounts payable.
Choose trend-based forecasting or use Supply’d Intelligence to consider wider demand signals such as weather, seasonality, public holidays and school holidays. Forecast sales and usage across future days, weeks or months, helping your team understand expected stock coverage and prepare for changing demand rather than relying only on what sold last week.
Supply’d Intelligence combines forecast demand with stock on hand, incoming purchase orders, supplier lead times, minimum holds, purchasing multiples and other maintained requirements. It recommends what to order from each supplier and can identify stock available at another location before suggesting a new purchase. Your team can review, adjust and send the proposed purchase orders from the same workflow. The current page already describes automatic purchase-order preparation and checking other warehouses first.
Bring together customer orders, delivery dates, minimum finished-stock requirements, current inventory and forecast demand to recommend what should be produced. Supply’d Intelligence includes the required sub-recipes and intermediate products, giving production teams a sequenced plan of what needs to be prepared before finished products can be completed. This matches the current production-planning workflow.
Automatically build delivery routes across one or multiple vehicles using order locations, delivery windows, vehicle capacity, expected stop durations, customer opening hours, driver breaks and traffic. Supply’d Intelligence recommends an efficient run while your team retains the ability to review and adjust the route before it is assigned to drivers. The current page already describes optimisation using these operational constraints.
Your team chooses when to use Supply’d Intelligence for Smart Purchasing, production planning and route optimisation. Supply’d prepares the result using live operational data, while users review and adjust it before continuing. Semi-automated tools such as the Smart Order Inbox and invoice scanning reduce repetitive entry while keeping each result visible for human review.
Supply’d Intelligence uses your business activity to improve recommendations and automation within your own account. Your operational data and account-specific learning are not shared with other Supply’d customers, and the insights produced from your business are used only to support your own team.
