AI and Product Descriptions

Softrader and AI

We’re always looking for innovative ways to enhance efficiency. That’s why we’re excited to share something we’re developing: an AI-powered order entry solution designed to improve the way you handle free descriptions.

AI is the current buzzword, and often used simply for the sake of marketing, but this feature really has the potential to make order entry much easier, whilst hugely improving your dataset of enquiries and jobs for reporting purposes, and improving your ability to intelligently hold stock.

 

Simplify Order Entry with Intelligent Automation

Entering orders into the system can be time-consuming and prone to errors, especially when dealing with complex product descriptions and codes. We aim to alleviate these challenges by intelligently interpreting product descriptions and automatically matching them to the correct stock codes in your coding system.

Imagine typing in a description of a valve product—no matter how detailed or unique—and having our system accurately identify and code it for you. This means less time spent on manual data entry and more time focusing on what truly matters: serving your customers.

 

Order Entry via Document Capture

Looking ahead, we’re working on enabling our AI to process orders from images. This means you’ll be able to take a picture of a document—like a purchase order or enquiry—and our system will extract the necessary information to create an order automatically.

This feature is set to transform the way you handle jobs, reducing the need for manual data entry and minimising the risk of errors.  Making your operations more efficient, your data more coherent,  and your life a little easier.

 

Why This Matters

  • Increased Efficiency: Reduce the time spent on order entry and allow your team to focus on more strategic tasks.
  • Improved Accuracy: Minimise errors associated with manual data entry, ensuring orders are processed correctly the first time.
  • Improved Reporting: If all your items are properly coded, right from the enquiry stage, your reporting immediately becomes more useful.
  • Better Use of Stock: Salespeople will always be alerted if something is in stock, rather than missing things from using free descriptions.

 

Stay Tuned for Updates

In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing more details about how this AI-powered solution works.  If you want to be one of the companies to test it, please let us know.
