Six AI routines that run your distribution day, with a person approving every move
Foodline AI runs six routines (morning briefing, replenishment, receiving discrepancy check, promotion FEFO/FIFO for expiring stock, automatic delivery route planning and late purchase orders). Each one states its trigger, schedule, output and approver. Routines draft work; they can't post money or stock without a person approving it.
What is an AI-native ERP?
An AI-native ERP is an ERP where the AI works directly on the live operational record, reading orders, lots, routes and invoices and drafting the work, rather than an AI tool bolted onto a separate system. In Foodline AI, routines draft the work and a person approves anything that moves money or stock.
How the routines fit with Order Agent and the Copilot: AI for food distributors.
Each one states its trigger, its output, and what a person decides.

✦Routines read and draft; people decide. Route planning drafts the day's routes, and a dispatcher releases them. No routine sends, posts or ships anything.
The truck is part of the system too.
Once a load leaves the dock, most distributors are flying blind until the driver texts. Route planning drafts the day's runs at 5:00 AM, a dispatcher releases them, and drivers work their stops in the app, so each arrival and proof of delivery lands on the order.

Frequently asked questions
What AI routines does Foodline AI run?
Six: a morning briefing, replenishment, a receiving discrepancy check, an expiring-stock promotion (FEFO/FIFO), automatic delivery route planning, and late purchase orders, which lists purchase orders past their required date. Each one states its trigger, schedule, output and approver.
Can Foodline AI send a purchase order or a payment on its own?
No. Routines read your data and draft work such as the day's delivery routes; no routine sends a purchase order or a payment. A person approves anything that moves money or stock.
What does the expiring-stock promotion routine do?
It finds lots close to expiry or overstocked, using FEFO or FIFO, and suggests promotions to move them. A buyer drafts and approves each one in Move It / Lose It.
How does Foodline AI watch the cold chain?
Foodline AI records product temperature at receiving. Continuous reefer and zone monitoring and excursion alerts are not part of it today.
