Mandel AI builds an AI supply chain coordination platform that sits atop existing email and ERP systems and uses purpose-built AI agents to read supplier communications, extract critical data, reconcile purchase order confirmations and invoices, and act autonomously. Its agents follow up with suppliers, flag discrepancies, and escalate issues according to company-defined rules, replacing email-and-spreadsheet workflows. The company reports it has processed more than $1 billion in material spend for clients across aerospace, pharma, industrials, and other complex manufacturing sectors. Mandel says one procurement manager using its agents can coordinate work that previously required an entire team by handling hundreds of supplier emails per day, around the clock. The startup aims to become an API for global trade communication and enable self-coordinating supply chains across manufacturers and distributors in North America and Europe. It is led by founder and CEO Nick Gospodinov.
