TrueCommerce turns the purchase orders, invoices, inventory updates and shipping notices behind modern trade into an automated conversation - then keeps that conversation compliant when partners, systems and borders change.

Pairio is an AI mobile app that helps factory technicians fix broken machines. A technician speaks into their phone or snaps a photo of a faulty machine, and Pairio searches thousands of pages of OEM manuals and past repair records to return step-by-step fixes on the spot.

It starts with procurement and supply chain, where it has processed roughly $400M in annual supplier spend and reached six-figure ARR while in early stage.
