What is an AI procurement agent?

An AI procurement agent is software that handles the repetitive, error-prone parts of buying and supplying materials: reading an order however it arrives, turning it into a structured purchase, raising the paperwork, chasing the money and flagging anything unusual — without a person re-keying data at each step. In construction, where SME builders still phone, text or WhatsApp orders to their builders’ merchants, an AI agent sits on top of those existing relationships rather than replacing them. That is exactly what The Graaftr does: it digitises the builder–merchant relationship you already have, so orders placed the way the trade actually works become clean, tracked, invoiced transactions.

What The Graaftr’s AI agent handles

AI order capture

Orders placed by WhatsApp or web are captured automatically — no manual data entry for the merchant, no lost scraps of paper for the builder.

Instant invoice automation

Invoices are generated on order confirmation and matched against purchase orders, enabling real-time cost tracking on both sides.

Smart credit monitoring

Track credit limits, flag risk early and automate payment follow-ups, so cash keeps moving.

Project-level financials

Every order lands against the right project, giving builders live job costing and spend visibility instead of month-end surprises.

Multi-merchant procurement

Builders can order from all their suppliers through one platform, comparing and consolidating without switching tools.

Works with your systems

Integrates with existing ERP and CRM systems — the agent enhances what you run today, it doesn’t replace it.

How it works

01

Connect

Bring in the merchants you already buy from — or the builders you already supply. The agent layers on top of those relationships; nothing gets ripped out.

02

Automate

From then on, the agent reads incoming orders, raises the invoice the moment an order is confirmed, watches credit exposure and highlights anything that looks off.

03

Grow

With clean data flowing, merchants see where margin is made and builders see where budgets stand — on every live project, not just at month end.

Frequently asked questions

Does an AI procurement agent replace my ERP or accounting software?

No. The Graaftr integrates with the systems you already use and enhances them. The agent handles capture, matching and monitoring; your systems of record stay your systems of record.

How does WhatsApp ordering work?

Builders send orders the way they already message their merchant. The agent reads the message, structures it into a proper order, confirms it, and the invoice follows automatically — no re-keying at the trade counter.

Who is it for?

UK SME builders who buy building materials, and builders’ merchants who supply them. The platform serves both sides of the same transaction, which is why the automation works end to end.

Is my data safe?

Data is stored in Microsoft Azure data centres in the UK and the platform is GDPR compliant. See our Privacy Policy for details.

What does early access cost?

Nothing — early access is free, with no card details needed. Once you register, the team will contact you personally to set up your account.
