Built for AI-assisted onboarding.

SignalEDI is the AI-assisted platform for mapping, validation, compliance checks, readiness scoring, exception routing, and monitoring so your team knows what is missing and when you are ready.

850 purchase orders

AI maps retailer POs into structured order data.

856 ASNs

AI validates shipment, carton, carrier, and pack hierarchy.

810 invoices

AI prepares invoice-ready data with exception checks.

Retailer readiness

AI tracks what is done now and what still depends on the partner.

Your side can reach partner-ready setup in days, not weeks. Partner approval can still take longer.

SignalEDI makes the handoff clear: AI agents complete the work you control now, while partner review remains the manual dependency.

Ready before approval

Three steps from mandate to AI-prepared readiness.

The old world was manual mapping, manual validation, manual readiness, and weeks of uncertainty. The breakthrough is AI agents completing your side first.
01

Connect your system

Use API, SFTP, file upload, or QuickBooks context so agents know your source data.

02

Upload a sample document

AI agents map, validate, check compliance, test, and score readiness.

03

Prepared before partner approval

Finish the setup work your team controls while the partner completes manual review.

Evidence that your side is prepared before partner approval finishes.

Scorecards, event feeds, and the activation funnel show what is complete, what still needs review, and what still depends on partner-side approval.
