When we started extrakt.AI, we knew automation couldn’t happen without clean, quality data. That’s why we focused on ensuring supply chains could operate with structured, reliable data, no matter the format, across familiar systems.  

Our primary mission was to extract, process, and unify data with 100% accuracy across invoices, purchase orders, contracts, shipment notices, and more - whether these came as a photo, a document, or even hidden in an email thread.

From our previous experience with enterprises dealing with high-volume operations we knew that the traditional ways of working could not accommodate the massive flows of information supply chains area dealing with on a daily basis.  

Working closely with clients and partners over the past 18 months confirmed what we had anticipated at the start of our automation journey. While cleaning up corporate data is just one part of the equation, supply chains need more than that - they need systemic transformation, and we are now ready to help them achieve it.

Why the change?

One of the key things we’ve learned is that complexity has increased exponentially, not just because of the volume of data and its inherently poor quality, but also because of a “locked-in” experience generated by a mix of patterns and challenges.

  1. Fragmented systems: enterprise tech stacks simplify some workflows but complicate others.
  1. Supplier uniqueness: every supplier has unique communication styles and documentation formats, leading to countless exceptions.
  1. Manual errors and workflow gaps: error-prone manual processes still dominate supply chains, creating unnecessary burdens.
  1. Knowledge silos: critical expertise remains locked in people’s heads, rather than being accessible and scalable across the organization.
  1. Missed value from unstructured data: so much value is lost in hidden or messy data that businesses can’t fully assess or recover it.
  1. The rule of exceptions: in supply chains, exceptions aren’t rare - they’re the rule, complicating automation efforts.

With all these findings in mind, we chose to expand our platform’s capability and rebrand from extrakt.AI to Nordoon. Not to move away from data extraction and processing, but to build on such clean, high-quality data the end-to-end automation solutions that supply chains need to change these patterns.

A refreshed vision for supply chain automation

Our mission is now about enabling supply chains to automate smarter, scale better, and adapt faster in an economy of high expectations.  

For this to happen, our platform leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) and activates AI Agents to help supply chains deliver on 4 core principles:  

  • High-quality data: Clean, structured, and reliable for system-wide consistency.
  • Streamlined operations: Eliminating redundant manual processes.
  • Automated workflows: Handling repetitive tasks and exceptions with no effort.
  • Actionable insights: Powering decisions with real-time analytics.

Designed to handle exceptions with elasticity, our platform works case-by-case and bottom-to-top, delivering intelligent solutions tailored to specific enterprise needs and ecosystems.

Nordoon’s AI Agents don’t replace people, but they do transform the way people work and give them back precious time by reducing manual intervention where it doesn’t add value. By automating repetitive tasks, instantly analyzing documentation and communication, improving the quality of data, streamlining workflows, prioritizing tasks, our AI Agents become a force multiplier for supply chain teams.

Quick tour of Nordoon’s capabilities

So many procurement, inventory, and logistics operations are bogged down by repetitive, inefficient processes, why not take advantage of the AI agents’ capacity to operate in continuous loops of learning, processing, and optimization?

Clean data as a foundation

We consider this kind of automation as foundational, as automation cannot function on poor data. Even if it appears to do so, the outcomes carry and propagate poor results across systems, which is something to avoid.

Our AI Agents don’t just automate. They create a foundation for seamless scalability. While LLMs clean up, structure and enrich data, the Agents capacitate big automation platforms like Power Automating to update such data into ERP systems like SharePoint. Every new workflow update or data entry is reflected automatically, keeping teams informed and aligned.

Workflow automation

Our AI agents specialize in specific procurement and operational tasks and processes like order taking, backorder management, delivery note processing, and so much more. When connected, they collaborate to create fully automated workflows, eliminating manual interventions and ensuring accuracy.

End-to-end data consolidation

Our platform turns scattered, fragmented data - like unreplied supplier emails or excessive logs - into a unified, enriched view. This enables supply chains to make data-driven decisions with confidence.

Performance insights & analytics

Supply chains thrive on insights, and our AI Agents deliver them through detailed analytics. Access to real-time data lets supply chains executives measure and compare supplier performance to improve relationships and outcomes, benchmark their digital transformation progress against industry standards, optimize workflows with real-time productivity dashboards to quickly identify bottlenecks and opportunities."
