A chemical business runs on recipes, records and awkward little exceptions. Datacor has spent four decades turning those exceptions into software - and is now buying its way deeper into the plant.
Agilis
Agilis (Agilis Chemicals Inc., dba Agilis Commerce) is a Newark, New Jersey SaaS company that helps chemical, plastics and ingredients producers and distributors digitize their commercial product data and launch branded digital commerce portals in weeks rather than years. Founded in 2016 by former BASF and Shell executive Jay Bhatia, its platform - spanning product information management, digital catalogs, customer self-service hubs and the Alchemist AI suite - gives suppliers an AI-ready data foundation and a modern buyer experience. Customers include BASF, Evonik, Westlake and Wanhua, and in 2025 Agilis partnered with supply-chain network Elemica to build the chemical industry's first end-to-end digital commerce and execution platform.
