Tenkara is an AI-powered operations platform designed for material manufacturers, acting as a centralized system that automates sourcing, procurement, logistics, and supply chain workflows through intelligent agents. Built as an “operating system for process manufacturers,” it replaces manual coordination tasks like supplier outreach, freight booking, and compliance tracking with automated processes that run continuously in the background. It enables users to source and qualify raw material vendors without relying on cold calls or fragmented research, providing access to thousands of commodity materials while streamlining vendor onboarding and selection. It delivers real-time pricing intelligence, tracking cost fluctuations in raw materials and packaging components so teams can make faster, data-driven purchasing decisions. Tenkara also integrates freight management directly into the workflow, allowing users to retrieve accurate delivered pricing and book shipments.
