Automate analysis and biz processes w/ an AI native spreadsheet
TL;DR: Melder is a platform to organize messy supply chain data and identify actionable savings opportunities. For example, during M&A, companies use us to combine supplier data buried in spreadsheets and PDFs, then identify better priced vendors to capture savings.
The Problem
Enterprise supply chain data is a mess. Whether you're merging companies, managing multiple brands, or just trying to get a handle on your supply chain, you're facing:
- Data Chaos: Multiple ERP systems, inconsistent formats, and thousands of PDFs scattered across teams
- Supplier Confusion: Same supplier, different name, different prices, different SKUs
- Manual Mayhem: Teams spending weeks just entering data into spreadsheets instead of driving value
1. 📊 Smart Data Integration.
- Our AI tools automatically cleans data, fuzzy matches vendor names (because apparently "Airbnb” and “Airbed ‘n Breakfast, Inc.” are the same company?), and standardizes everything into a single source of truth.
2. 🧠 Enhancement & Analysis.
- Categorization of spend across your supplier base
- Automated contract term analysis to spot risks and opportunities
- Intelligent supplier outreach that automatically logs reply info into your data (the power of a timely email!)
3. 📈 Action-Oriented Insights.
- Categories ripe for consolidation (goodbye, 47 office supply vendors!)
- Pricing discrepancies across suppliers
- Contracts that need to be re-negotiated

A bit about us:
Phil and Ashwin became friends in Los Angeles through a mutual friend group, quickly becoming “those guys who argue about tech product ideas for hours on end.” Little did they know, three years later their arguments would gain more significance as they started building a tech startup of their own 😃
