I think there is a lot of opportunity in this space. It’s rare to see this many comments speaking of the pain points here.
I recently was a co-founder of a delivery app in the CPG space, and I think this space is ripe for disruption. We were running micro-fulfillment centers and staffing delivery drivers, but I wanted to pivot into a SaaS model taking on the data-plumbing between manufacturers and retailers. It absolutely amazed me that NOBODY seemed to have even half-decent API’s.
I wish people could all just get together and decide on things like a universal barcode system. You’d think things like electronic inventory transfers would be the norm, yet we were still dealing mostly in paper receipts.
- NickFanion 3y agoA success I've had is building datasets from the electronic data interchange (EDI) transmissions we receive. EDI is an old standard, and everyone implements it slightly differently, but Stedi (https://www.stedi.com https://www.stedi.com) has made it simple for me to turn EDI into JSON. Like you said though, there are still folks using paper receipts/PDFs.
