Dallas, TX – Invera, the provider of the INVEX metal ERP platform, has announced INVEX AI, a strategic initiative focused on bringing artificial intelligence directly into the operational workflows of metal service centers. At the center of the INVEX AI initiative is Ivy, Invera’s AI assistant designed specifically for the metals industry, which includes Ivy’s Agents.
Agents for Prompt Driven Tasks
Built directly into the INVEX platform, INVEX Ivy combines large language model (LLM) technology with INVEX’s operational ERP infrastructure to help users access information faster, interact with business data using natural language, and execute prompt-driven routine sales and production tasks inside INVEX.
Before executing any changes, Ivy confirms the action with the user, and reports back exactly what was completed, so users retain full oversight and control over the operational decisions that affect their business.
Sales Agents
Ivy’s Sales Agents help sales and order management teams keep orders and pricing accurate without manual rework. Ivy can update due dates on individual order lines or across multiple lines at once, cancel order items, and apply pricing updates such as customer-specific charges or contract-based price changes going forward.
Routine order and pricing maintenance that once required navigating multiple screens can now be completed through a simple, prompt-driven request.
Warehouse Agents
Ivy’s Warehouse Agents support planning and inventory teams in responding quickly when conditions change on the floor. When unplanned downtime affects production, Ivy can reschedule impacted jobs and log the reason across every affected job in one action.
When quality issues arise, Ivy can investigate a damaged or ripped inventory tag, trace its history, and issue a replacement label. And when material fails Ship Ready verification, Ivy can help resolve the issue so shipments keep moving. The result is less time spent chasing down operational issues, and more time keeping production and shipping on schedule.
AI Built on a Metal ERP Foundation
Built on a modern services-oriented architecture with REST APIs, microservices, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectivity, INVEX AI is designed to allow large language models (LLMs) and AI agents to safely interact with enterprise ERP data and processes.
As artificial intelligence continues to reshape enterprise software, Invera remains focused on delivering practical innovation specifically for the metals industry. With INVEX AI and Ivy, metal companies will be able to leverage modern AI technologies and improve operational efficiency across the enterprise.
INVEX AI capabilities are planned to be released incrementally as part of upcoming INVEX software releases.
