Company
https://www.pollinate.techSupply chains still run on spreadsheets and inboxes because ERPs are rigid and the data is messy. We're solving this problem by building an ontology where agents can operate and provide outcomes for our customers.
We start with procurement, by automating three-way match: extracting supplier invoices from email and matching them to the correct PO and receipt across ERPs.

Market Opportunity
Supply chain software is a massive B2B market — procurement automation, ERP integration, and invoice matching collectively represent billions in TAM. ICP appears to be mid-market manufacturing/procurement teams drowning in spreadsheets and email. Clear monetization path via SaaS per-seat or transaction-based pricing on invoice matching workflows.

Founder Signal
Corey (CTO) left an aerospace/physics degree at UQ and ran an electrical business and software agency prior to founding. Adeep left a chemistry degree at UQ, ran a marketing/events agency (Access Brisbane) and spent 5 months as founding engineer at Transfoorm working on BHP internal tooling. They co-founded a nightlife app (Hotspot) earlier. Both founders are young with limited enterprise or supply chain domain experience, though they demonstrate real execution ability outside traditional career paths.
Low Signal
Competition
No competitor data was found in research, but the space is crowded: Coupa, Jaggaer, SAP Ariba dominate enterprise procurement; Zip and Procurify target mid-market; Stampli and Tipalti own invoice matching. Numerous AI-native supply chain startups (e.g., Altana, Pactum, Keelvar) are well-funded. Pollinate's 'ontology for agents' angle is differentiated in framing but unproven vs. entrenched players with deep ERP integrations.

Product
Company logos displayed on homepage. Substantive feature descriptions: 3-way invoice match, PCB procurement, ECO propagation, inbound tracking. 'We are live now!' banner. SAP/Infor/ERP integrations visible in screenshot. Specific inventory management UI shown. No named customer testimonials, no pricing page, no API docs.
OverallC Tier
Pollinate is attacking a real, large enterprise software market with a product that appears live (visible ERP integration UI, 'We are live now!' banner). Feature descriptions cover 3-way invoice match, PCB procurement, and ECO propagation. SAP/Infor integration. However, the founding team lacks elite technical pedigree, and enterprise hardware procurement software is dominated by established ERP players. The live product claim needs validation through named customers.
