What it does

Your partners' documents, in a format your systems understand

TradeFlo is being built to support every EDI document, in X12 and EDIFACT. It receives what your partners send, turns it into clean JSON or files your systems can use, and sends your responses back in the exact format each partner expects.

Who it's for

Manufacturers selling to big-box retailers
Distributors and wholesalers with many trading partners
Retail and e-commerce suppliers facing new EDI requirements
Teams outgrowing expensive legacy EDI providers

How it works

Example

A Walmart purchase order, start to finish

An 850 arrives from Walmart. TradeFlo validates it, sends the 997 acknowledgment, and hands your system clean JSON. When you ship, your 856 and 810 go back the same way.
