Building better manufacturing with AI ⚒️

Grab your hard hat and strap in—we're about to dive into a tale from the blue-collar side of the tech industry.

Meet Global Shop Solutions (GSS), a family business that's been quietly revolutionizing manufacturing through their Enterprise Resource Planning software. 

For decades, they've been the backbone for manufacturers generating hundreds of millions in revenue across dozens of industries.

But in 2023, they hit a wall they couldn't ignore: 

Their customers' financial and operational data was trapped in paper prison. 

Every day, employees were manually sifting through mountains of invoices, purchase orders, inventory sheets, and shipping schedules. 

A lot of this data needed to be carefully entered into the ERP software—by hand. 

The result was skyrocketing overhead costs, increased risk of human error, and countless hours of lost productivity.

Simply throwing more people at the problem wasn't the answer.

That's where our team at AE Studio stepped in. And what happened next?

In just 10 weeks (two weeks ahead of schedule 😉) we transformed their operation with a custom API powered by GPT-4 Vision that seamlessly integrates with their existing ERP software.

The result? 

An AI model that analyzes data from physical document images and transcribes information with 95% accuracy, eliminating the manual data entry bottlenecks that had been holding them back. 

This isn't just a tech upgrade—it's a complete transformation of how manufacturing data moves from paper to digital.

This single change to the data aggregation process decreased overhead cost by 90%+.

Not too shabby!
