# Distro

> Distro is the complete AI sales platform built for wholesale distributors and manufacturers' reps. Our AI agents handle quoting, takeoffs, and inbound customer questions so sales teams respond in minutes instead of hours, and win more business without adding headcount.

Distro sits on top of the ERP a distributor already runs (Prophet 21, Eclipse, Infor) and on the manufacturers' portals reps already work inside. It is the sales layer; the ERP stays the system of record. Distro sells only into wholesale distribution and manufacturers' rep agencies, across HVAC, PHCP/PVF, electrical, and industrial MRO.

## Products

## What Distro is not

- Not an ERP, and not a replacement for one. Distro integrates with the ERP and the ERP stays the system of record.
- Not a generic AI assistant. The agents are built around distributor catalogs, cross-references, min/multiples, and unit-of-measure rules, which general-purpose AI tools do not handle.
