All industries

From grain to glass, with the back office already automated.

AI agents across brewing, batch release, procurement and reporting.

WHY AUTOMATION FITS BREWING

Brewing needs consistency. Automation helps deliver it.

Every batch must meet its specifications. Raw-material orders must match recipe requirements. Connected taps generate data that needs to be monitored. Across these processes, teams still spend time collecting records, checking data and preparing reports: routine tasks that agents can automate.

Our AI agents handle these workflows across your ERP, LIMS, MES and connected dispensing systems, flagging exceptions and routing decisions to the right people. Brewers stay in control of the beer, quality teams of release decisions, and sales teams of customer relationships.

  1. Source & planRaw-material orders and production plans built from recipe and demand
  2. Brew & releaseBatch records checked against spec, release file assembled for QA
  3. Sell & serveDraft telemetry monitored, orders and invoices processed for the trade

WHAT WE DO FOR BREWING

Protect your margin from the brewhouse to the tap.

Agents track every cost and batch file. Brewers keep brewing.

Input vs beer prices · EU, index 2021 = 100Input prices jumped 20% in a year; beer prices, 6%. Agents re-price and re-source inside the gap.

Stay ahead of rising input costs

Malt, hops, aluminum and energy costs can rise before selling prices catch up, squeezing margins.

Agents monitor input costs, recalculate the cost of each SKU and flag shrinking margins before month-end.

Batch release, fast and audit-ready

Batches are released as soon as quality results are in. AI agents gather the lab and sensory results into one release file for QA to approve.

AGENT IN ACTION

How a draft quality agent works.

What it does

The agent watches dispenser telemetry across every venue, around the clock. When a pour runs warm, foamy or wasteful, it opens a case on its own: pulls line, keg and gas data, checks hygiene and dispense policy, isolates the fault and drafts the work order before anyone at the venue has noticed.

The objective

Protect every pour and every account. Bad pints never reach the customer, technicians arrive with the fault already diagnosed, and your on-trade team only ever sees the venues that genuinely need a human.

  1. Your environment, your data

    Agents run inside your infrastructure, on-prem, private cloud or hybrid. No data leaves the brewery without your approval. No dependency on us: it runs on infrastructure you control. The agent is yours to run, permanently.

  2. Fixed price per process

    You pay for the process automated, not consulting hours. If a process proves non-automatable, a voucher covers the next one.

  3. From 12 weeks · fastest go-live

    Our fastest projects go live from 12 weeks; the plan for yours comes out of discovery, because it depends on the process and the systems it touches. Payback within one year for the large majority of projects.

BREWERY FAQ

What brewing leaders ask us.

Answers before the first call: the questions brewing leaders ask us most.

Do we need to rip and replace our ERP, MES or LIMS stack?

No. Our agents sit on top of what you have — your ERP, MES/SCADA, LIMS, dispenser telemetry, retailer EDI, supplier portals and BI stack. Where an integration doesn't exist, our agents operate the same screens your staff uses today.

How we integrate with each system →
What happens to our existing teams?

They move up the value chain. Brewmasters, QA leads, plant controllers, demand planners and KAMs stay in control — every agent action is auditable and reversible, and humans retain ultimate responsibility. What goes away is copy-paste and reconciliation, not judgment.

How do you price?

Fixed-price per workflow automation. If during delivery we determine a process cannot be automated, you receive a voucher to automate a different process instead. Optional SLAs are agreed per project, based on business hours.

How we charge →
Where is our data?

Hosted in the region of your choice, GDPR-aligned, with role-based access, full audit trails and the option of private or on-prem deployment for enterprise clients. Your data is never used to train anyone else's models.

Where agents run and who holds access →
What's typically in scope for brewing?

Brewhouse setpoint sync and anomaly detection, batch release and sensory tracking, demand and S&OP support, malt/hops/CO2 procurement and AP matching, draft-dispenser fleet monitoring and technician dispatch, supplier ESG and scope 3 data collection, packaging-waste compliance, and trade-promotion planning. We scope per department.
