What is multi-agent orchestration?
Multi-agent orchestration
Multi-agent orchestration is the coordination of specialized AI agents that handle different parts of a transaction. One agent reads the input. Another validates pricing. A third resolves exceptions. Orchestration ensures agents pass context cleanly and complete the transaction end-to-end. Multi-agent design lifts autonomy by 15 to 30 percentage points versus single-agent systems.

Frequently asked questions
What problem does it solve in B2B commerce?
It closes the gap between how customers send orders (email, PDF, portal, EDI, Excel) and how ERPs need them entered. The manual capture, validation, and write-back work that caps throughput and produces order errors goes away.
Where does it fit alongside ERP, CRM, and EDI?
It sits in front of the ERP as the inbound execution layer. EDI handles the partners that have it. AI agents handle every other channel and write the result natively into SAP, D365, or comparable systems of record.
What does success look like in production?
Touchless execution on the happy path, autonomy rates above 80 percent on covered transaction types, first-time-right rates near 99 percent, and capacity released back to the team for higher-value work.
