Sync AI · Production Agent

The critical path, watched around the clock.

The Sync AI Production Agent watches the season the way a production manager wishes they could: critical path slippage, inbound shipment tracking and ordered vs shipped on a schedule, vendor POs projected from sales, history and projection, and bills of lading turned straight into in-shipments and ASNs.

Scheduled watch

Slippage flagged while the delivery can still be saved.

Every run walks the critical path for every style in work - sampling, approvals, production, shipping - and flags the milestones slipping against the delivery dates your sales orders promised.

  • Critical path slippage by style, against promised delivery
  • Inbound shipments tracked from origin to receipt
  • Ordered vs shipped monitored across open production

Sync Demo dataset

BOL ingestion

A bill of lading in. An in-shipment and ASN out.

When the BOL arrives, the agent reads it, matches lines to the purchase order, and creates the in-shipment and ASN in Sync - no re-keying, reviewed inside your permission settings.

  • Bills of lading parsed automatically on arrival
  • Lines matched to open purchase orders
  • In-shipments and ASNs created in Sync, visible for review

What it works

From factory to receipt, watched and keyed

Monitoring where the season slips, creation where the documents arrive.

Critical path

Milestone slippage by style, tied to the sales order deliveries it threatens.

Inbound tracking

Shipments tracked from origin, ETAs held against the dates production needs.

Ordered vs shipped

Open production POs against what actually shipped, monitored every run.

Projected vendor POs

The vendor purchase orders to place next, projected from sales, history and projection.

How it runs

Scheduled inside Sync. Answerable from your assistant.

Sync AI agents run on a schedule inside Sync itself, against live data and within your existing Sync permission settings - the same roles and access your team already uses, with no side door. What an agent surfaces or creates is visible in Sync before it flows anywhere downstream.

And because Sync speaks MCP natively, you can interrogate everything an agent finds from the assistant you already use - Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Grok - through Sync MCP. The agent does the watching. You do the asking.

The full agent team

One agent per desk. Seven desks.

The Production Agent works alongside six others, each watching its own desk inside Sync. Pick the next one.

FAQ

The Production Agent, answered.

What does the Sync AI Production Agent do?

It watches critical path slippage, inbound shipments and ordered vs shipped on a schedule, projects the vendor POs to place from sales, history and projection, and turns bills of lading into in-shipments and ASNs in Sync - no re-keying.

How often does the agent run?

Sync AI agents run on a schedule you set - hourly, nightly, weekly, or on the cadence that matches the work. Each run checks live Sync data, not a stale snapshot.

What can the agent see and touch?

An agent works within your existing Sync permission settings - the same roles and access controls your team already uses. Everything it surfaces or creates is visible in Sync before it flows anywhere downstream.

How do projected vendor POs work?

The agent projects the vendor purchase orders to place from three inputs: current sales, sales history and projection. Proposals surface in Sync for review - nothing is placed without your team.

Can we ask questions about what it finds?

Yes. Sync speaks MCP natively, so you can interrogate any agent's findings from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Grok through Sync MCP - drill into a flag, ask for the why, or pull the detail behind a number.

How do we get it?

The agents are part of the Sync AI layer of the Sync platform. Book a demo and we will configure it against a real product range so you can see what it catches on data like yours.
