How does the Distributor Manager find new partners?

It uses 'lookalike modeling' to analyze your best current partners and then scans global databases monitoring over 1,500 business signals (hiring, funding, tech stack) to find similar high-potential candidates in target regions.

Does it replace our channel sales managers?

No, it augments them. It removes the 80% of their workload related to data entry, chasing documents, and routine compliance checks, freeing them to focus on high-value strategy, relationship building, and closing deals.

Can it handle documents in different languages?

Yes. The agent is built with 'Language-Native Orchestration,' capable of reading, extracting, and processing documents in over 100 languages, and guiding partners through onboarding in their native tongue.

How does it ensure we stay compliant?

It performs continuous, 24/7 screening of your entire partner network against over 300 global watchlists and sanctions databases. It also checks for ownership structures to identify hidden risks, providing an audit-ready trail.

Does it integrate with our existing ERP?

Absolutely. The **Distributor Manager** is designed to integrate seamlessly via API with major ERPs like SAP, Oracle, and NetSuite, creating a unified data layer that syncs partner performance data directly into your financial systems.

Distributor Manager | AI Workers

Distributor Manager is an AI worker that autonomously orchestrates global partner networks.

It compresses 60-90 day onboarding to hours, screens against 300+ watchlists, and provides Live Mosaic performance scoring-enabling 60% faster activation while doubling partner count without doubling OPEX.

What is Distributor Manager?

Channel Visibility Engine. Indirect sales channels (distributors, resellers, agents) drive revenue but create information asymmetry. Quarterly Excel reviews provide stale data. Sanctioned entities in distributor ownership structures trigger catastrophic liability. Distributor Manager orchestrates entire partner lifecycle with real-time surveillance.
Live Mosaic Performance Scoring. Operates 24/7 aggregating ERP, logistics, and financial data into real-time partner scores. Detects Southeast Asia partner's sudden sales velocity drop or inventory discrepancies-flagging for intervention before missed quarters.
60-90 Days→Hours Onboarding. Traditional due diligence is paper-heavy and stalls market entry. Digital Forensics extracts business licenses, cross-references 300+ global watchlists. Multilingual workflows guide partners through document submission in native language.
Lookalike Partner Discovery. Analyzes 1,500+ business signals (hiring momentum, funding, tech adoption) to identify high-potential distributor prospects matching your best performers. Scale global footprint without linear channel management costs.

Replaces:

Slow manual database queries for sanctions vetting.

Static Excel files for Quarterly Business Reviews.

Disorganized email ping-pong for document collection.

Periodic manual compliance audits.

Subjective partner evaluation bias.
