Where does AI fit with Epicor Kinetic?
AI is only useful when it can see the systems your business actually runs on. A clean Epicor Kinetic setup with reliable connections to your other systems comes first. From there, AI can take on part of the work while Epicor Kinetic keeps doing what it was designed to do.
Good uses of AI on top of a well-run system include:
- Plain-English questions about your own numbers
- Catching the misses between systems that no single app can see
- Sorting and checking work that a person does by hand today
Nothing goes to a customer without a person approving it. Read more about our AI implementation for small businesses. Epicor is also building AI agents into Kinetic, such as an EDI Agent that answers questions about EDI errors and an MRP Log Agent that explains MRP recommendations. Our guide to ERP automation with AI covers what they do and where to start.
