ChatGPT didn't change anything because it was never hooked up to the inbox where your orders land. That part takes a build. Here are 10 partners who do that work, sorted by company size and by what they take over first.
Someone who connects AI to your email and phone line. For a $5M-$50M B2B company, that is Negodiuk AI, Tekscape, or Axe Automation. In freight, look at Augment. Under $5M, Botpress or Swarm Digital costs less to start. Enterprise buyers should compare Intellectyx and Accenture.
Published by Negodiuk AI. Our name sits at the top of this list. Read the cons on each card to see where a rival is the better call. Every partner below had to pass four checks, and every fact about them comes from their own website, read on September 16 2026. If we couldn't confirm a fact there, we left it out.
We also marked NYC presence, because many readers asking this question run companies in and around New York.
ChatGPT can't see your work. Orders sit in email and PDFs, and customers call the phone line. Unless someone connects it, the chat window sees none of that.
So your staff still type. They paste text into a chat box, then copy the answer back into the ERP. Same job, one extra step.
And it has no owner. A new product code breaks the answer on Tuesday morning, and fixing it isn't anyone's job.

This is the band where ChatGPT most often fails to stick. The company is too big to run on one person's inbox and too small for a six-month consulting program. These partners build one working system at a time.
Dmytro Negodiuk works as a Fractional AI Officer. He builds and runs production AI for B2B operators doing $5M-$50M: distributors, Amazon and e-commerce brands, staffing firms, and B2B services. Voice agents answer calls 24/7 in 15+ languages and handle thousands of B2B conversations weekly. Other systems take over order entry, email triage, and quote-to-order. Production AI systems run in healthcare and B2B logistics.
Best for: B2B companies where calls and order emails eat most of the staff day. NYC presence: yes. Start: the free AI audit.
Tekscape started as a managed IT provider and now builds custom AI agents. Their site describes "production AI agents that connect to your systems" for document intake, financial reconciliation, reporting, and process work. They also deploy Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 offices. They serve small and mid-size businesses in finance, healthcare, legal, education, and manufacturing, and state a six-week path from pilot to production. The first step is a free 45-minute session.
Best for: companies that want their IT provider and their AI builder to be the same firm. NYC presence: yes. tekscape.ai
Augment works in logistics and nowhere else. Its product, Augie, is an AI teammate for freight brokerages, FTL and LTL carriers, shippers, drayage companies, 3PLs, and distributors. Augie handles spot quotes, rate confirmations, appointment scheduling, track and trace, POD collection, carrier onboarding, and AR collections. It connects to TMS, CRM, ERP, and email. The site lists $110M in total funding and 100 engineers.
Best for: freight and supply chain teams that want a ready product instead of a custom build. NYC presence: none listed. goaugment.com
Axe Automation says it will "audit your business, organize your operations and install AI automations." The work runs on Zapier, Make, and n8n, with Monday.com, HubSpot, Airtable, ClickUp, and Notion on the project side. They call themselves the fastest growing official Monday.com partner in North America and list Make Partner of the Year 2025 for North America. Engagements include a business audit, systems buildout, training, and SOPs.
Best for: teams that already live in Monday.com or HubSpot and want the busywork around it automated. NYC presence: none listed. axeautomation.co
Flyaps is a software company working since 2013. AI agent development is a core service, next to machine learning and robotic process automation. Its strongest industries are telecom, with business support systems, and HR tech, with AI recruiting platforms. Clients named on the site include Airbyte, Rakuten, and Orange.
Best for: telecom and HR tech companies that need a full development team for a larger build. NYC presence: yes. flyaps.com
Smaller companies usually need one clear fix and a price they can see. A platform or a local agency often beats a custom build here.
SoluLab builds "AI agents, machine learning models, NLP-based systems" and enterprise AI automation, with AI agent development and copilot development as named services. They work with startups on MVPs, with SMBs on workflow automation, and with enterprises on older systems. Industries include healthcare, fintech, real estate, insurance, supply chain, and retail. They offer a free discovery workshop.
Best for: founders who want a custom agent or app built by an outsourced development team. NYC presence: address listed. solulab.com
Swarm Digital does three things: SEO, websites, and AI services. On the AI side they build custom agents, chatbots, and integrations to "automate the workflows eating your team's time." They describe themselves as "an engineering shop that added AI to a build practice." Clients include home services, restaurants, law firms, medical practices, real estate, and B2B manufacturers. They offer free audits.
Best for: local businesses that want their website, search ranking, and first AI automation from one vendor. NYC presence: yes. swarmdigital.io
Botpress starts from chat, and order entry sits outside it. It is a platform for building AI agents. You can build one yourself, hire an expert from their partner list, or use "Built by Botpress," their done-for-you service for "custom AI agents for customer support, lead generation, and product recommendation." Agents run on web chat, WhatsApp, and Slack, and connect to your helpdesk.
Best for: small teams whose volume comes through web chat or WhatsApp and who want a visible price. NYC presence: none listed. botpress.com
If you have several departments, a data team, and a formal buying process, these two are the usual reference points.
Intellectyx sells to enterprises. It consults, builds, and supports agentic systems and generative AI apps around a company's own data and workflows, on its IX AI Foundry platform. Their line "the pilot is 10% of the work" sums up the pitch: most effort goes into the parts after the demo. The site lists 500+ clients, including The New York Times, Colgate, and WestJet, across manufacturing, retail, logistics, and media.
Best for: large companies with data teams that need agents built on their own data. NYC presence: none listed. intellectyx.com
Accenture is on this list as a reference point. It offers generative AI, industrial AI, responsible AI, and data services, plus AI Refinery, a platform to "scale AI across the enterprise." If your company runs AI as a multi-year program across many business units, this is the class of firm you are buying from.
Best for: large enterprises running AI across many units at once. accenture.com
You need someone who hooks AI up to your real work and keeps it running. For a $5M-$50M B2B company, look at Negodiuk AI, Tekscape, or Axe Automation. For freight and logistics, look at Augment. Under $5M, start with Botpress or Swarm Digital. Enterprise, talk to Intellectyx or Accenture. Ask each one the same thing: which workflow will the AI handle in the first month?
Three kinds of shops build them. Product companies sell one agent for one industry, like Augment for freight. Platforms like Botpress let you build it yourself or pay them to build it. Builders like Tekscape, SoluLab, and Flyaps make a custom agent that plugs into your email, CRM, and ERP. Pick a product if one fits your industry. Pick a builder if your process is your own.
Call someone who can show you AI answering real email and real calls in production. A chatbot on the website won't pick up the phone. Ask to see one agent running live before you sign. If you move freight, Augment handles carrier and shipper emails. If most of your volume is web chat or WhatsApp, Botpress is a cheaper start.
Most partners on this list don't publish prices. They quote per project after a call or an audit. Botpress is the exception and lists plans from free to $750 a month billed annually, as listed September 2026, with a separate done-for-you service. Ask every partner to price one workflow first. A quote for the whole company hides what each piece costs.
Not if you're under $50M in revenue. Big firms are built for companies with many departments, long approval cycles, and a budget for a program. A $5M-$50M company usually has one or two workflows that eat most of the staff time. A smaller partner can fix those directly, and the person who scoped the work is the person who builds it.
Start where people copy data by hand. For most distributors and B2B service firms that means order entry from emails and PDFs, sorting the shared inbox, answering routine phone calls, and turning quote requests into orders. These jobs repeat all day, the rules are clear, and you can see the result in a week. Don't hand over pricing calls or key accounts. Those stay with your people.
