Manual order entry is quietly bleeding your margin.
Nearly half of all B2B orders still arrive as email, PDF, and fax. Someone re-keys every one of them into the ERP by hand.
A distributor that handles 300 orders a day spends over $1M a year retyping orders a machine can read for pennies. They pay again for every wrong SKU, every wrong price, every wrong quantity that slips through.

Distribution Strategy Group
Three steps. Same-day onboarding.
No per-customer templates. No integration project that drags on for months. Your customers don't change a thing about how they send you orders.
01
Forward the PO email
Your customers keep emailing PDFs, scans, and plain-text orders the way they always have. You forward them, or connect a shared inbox. OrderPier takes it from there.
02
Every line is extracted and validated
Every field and line item gets read, scored for confidence, and checked against your item master, your customer list, and your pricing rules.
03
It lands on your board
Every order arrives as a card on a live board your team triages and approves. From there, post it to your ERP, or run the whole operation right in OrderPier. Nothing is ever silently wrong.
Not just a pipe to your ERP. OrderPier is the workspace.
Every order lands on a live Kanban board the moment it's read. A manager assigns it to a CSR, the CSR reviews the flagged fields and approves, and the whole team watches status move in real time. No ERP required, and it posts to one the second you connect it.
- Live Kanban board, New to Posted
- Managers assign orders to CSRs
- Per-CSR queues, nothing dropped
- Confidence-flagged exception review
- Every move on an audit trail
- Post to your ERP, or don't

Generic document AI hands you JSON and walks away. OrderPier closes the loop into a real, validated sales order in the system you already run.
The one that matters
No templates, ever
The model reads any PO layout on day one. New customers, new formats, scans, email bodies. Nothing to train per trading partner, nothing to re-map when a supplier changes their cover sheet — which is the entire reason template-based capture projects run for months before they process a single order.
- Confidence on every field
- Each value comes back with a 0-100% score. Confident orders post on their own. Anything below your threshold routes to a one-screen review queue.
- Native ERP write-back
- Approved orders post through native connectors, an importable IIF file for QuickBooks Enterprise, or a signed webhook you wire anywhere. Every connector badge on this site is computed from our nightly certification runs, never typed in by marketing.
- SKU matching that learns
- Customer part numbers and descriptions get matched against your item master. When a reviewer fixes an unknown SKU, that correction becomes a per-customer alias the next PO uses without asking the model.
- Audit trail by design
- Every extraction, edit, and post is logged with who, when, and why. Every record is scoped to your organization and isolated per tenant. SOC 2 Type II observation starts Q3 2026.
- Any format, forwarded or uploaded
- Forward customer POs as PDFs, scans, phone photos, or plain-text email, or upload them. Adding a backlog? Bulk import a whole batch at once. Same-day onboarding, no per-format setup.
Numbers you can verify.
No customer logos to wave around yet. So instead, three pages a buyer can audit in 30 seconds.
Accuracy on standard docs
99.99%
Field-level accuracy across 100 digital and scanned POs on our public benchmark. It only slips on the stress tier, 94.1% on deliberately punishing low-DPI faxes of tiny-font POs, which we publish too. Synthetic test set today; real-PO numbers as design partners contribute.
Cost to process an order
Cents
A finished, validated order for a fraction of a cent, versus the $8-15 a CSR costs to re-key one by hand. The math isn't close.
Trust posture
RLS · SOC 2
Per-tenant data isolation enforced on every query. Anthropic and Google commercial terms keep your data out of model training. SOC 2 Type II readiness with Vanta.
We publish where we break.
Most vendors quote one polished accuracy number. We score every field on our own open harness and segment by how the PO actually arrives — clean files, scans, and deliberately punishing faxes — so you can see exactly where the model is flawless and where it slips.

Questions before you forward a PO
- What's the best way to turn emailed purchase orders into ERP orders automatically?
- Forward a PO to a dedicated email address (or upload a PDF) and OrderPier turns it into a validated sales order delivered to your ERP connector, a QuickBooks IIF file, a webhook to any system, or the built-in Kanban board. It reads any layout without per-customer templates, scores every field's confidence so clean orders post automatically and uncertain ones go to a review queue, and it's self-serve with a free plan so you can test it on your own orders first.
- How is this different from Conexiom or Esker?
- Those are powerful enterprise suites with template and rules-based capture, six-figure pricing, and multi-month implementations. OrderPier is LLM-native (no per-customer templates), self-serve, priced for the mid-market, and reads new layouts on day one.
- What if the AI gets something wrong?
- Every field has a confidence score. Confident orders post automatically. Anything below your threshold routes to a human review queue. You set how aggressive auto-posting is, and the touchless rate climbs as trust builds.
- Which ERPs do you support today?
- Connector status is computed from our nightly certification runs and published on the integrations page. Today: Microsoft Dynamics 365, QuickBooks Online, Epicor Prophet 21, Epicor Kinetic, Acumatica in development with pilot customers, QuickBooks Enterprise via IIF file export, and a webhook covers everything else. We sequence native connectors by real customer pull.
- How do we get started?
- Try the free PO extractor on one of your own orders, no account needed. Then create a free workspace (15 orders/mo, no card) and watch your own POs post. Ready for volume? Start a trial, 250 orders over 14 days, card required, cancel anytime. Bigger or multi-ERP rollout? Contact us and we'll scope it.
