About Applied AI
Applied AI Labs helps procurement and operations teams execute faster, in the mid-market companies where every point of EBITDA counts.
We embed experienced operators alongside your team, find the highest-value gaps in how procurement runs, and build AI agents that turn your data into action: sourcing automation, supplier and contract intelligence, spend analytics, and exception handling. Most improvements go live in two weeks, measured against your own baseline.
Our founders have run operations at world-leading companies and built and sold AI ventures of their own. Everything is already in production with paying customers and zero security incidents. You pay from the value we create, not before.
Product Strengths
- Operator-led. Experienced procurement and operations leaders run every engagement, so we solve the gaps that actually move spend, cost, and EBITDA.
- Live in weeks, not quarters. A two-week diagnostic ranks the highest-value opportunities, then we ship a working AI agent roughly every two weeks.
- Paid on proven value. Our fee is a fraction of the confirmed uplift, measured against your own baseline. You pay from the value we create, not before.
- Built into your existing stack. Agents read from and write back to your ERP, P2P, and CRM with scoped, read-only access.
- No rip-and-replace. In production and secure. Live with paying customers today, with a human approving every action and zero security incidents to date.
