What it doesn't have is systems that talk to each other.

Connected Commerce Powered by AI for Manufacturers & Distributors

ERP, ecommerce, CRM, WMS, marketplaces, marketing are each doing their job fine on their own. Ask two of them the same question at once, though, and you'll often get two different answers. So someone on your team ends up doing everything manually. 

Connected Commerce solves this!

What it doesn't have is systems that talk to each other.

Why IT MATTERS

Manufacturers and distributors aren't behind because they lack technology. They're behind because their systems don't share information.

Product data, pricing, inventory, and customer information live across disconnected systems. As the business grows, every team ends up working from a different version of reality.

A customer sees three
different prices

for the same part depending on
which page they land on.

A rep promises next-day
shipping

on something that's actually backordered
because the ERP hadn't synced yet.

A product listing is missing
a spec sheet

nobody remembered to upload,
so it doesn't convert.

Connected Commerce is the discipline of running your entire commerce operation as one system rather than several, with Operational AI reading that system and delivering decisions instead of more reports to interpret.

The architecture

Connected Commerce Architecture

Connected Commerce is built in four layers, and each one depends on the layer underneath it holding up.

01

Foundation

A single, reliable version of your product data, pricing, inventory, customers, and orders. If this layer is wrong, everything built on top of it is wrong too, which is why most of the real work happens here first.

02

Storefront

What the customer actually sees: catalog, pricing, checkout, always reflecting what's true right now rather than what was true last night's batch job.

03

Integration

ERP, ecommerce, CRM, WMS, and marketplaces, wired to pass information automatically. Most companies consider this done the day it launches. Klizer keeps tending it, because new tools and channels don't stop showing up after go-live.

04

Intelligence

Operational AI, watching everything moving through the first three layers. It catches a problem while it's still small, points out something a busy team would have missed, and gives a straight answer instead of another report.

Operational AI

How Operational AI works to Deliver Data-driven Connected Commerce

Most businesses already have the data to answer questions about their business. However, it is scattered between the systems that don’t talk. 

Revenue

notices a shift in buying behavior days before it would show up in a report

Inventory

flags slow-moving stock and likely shortages weeks out, not the week it happens

Product

finds the gaps and inconsistencies in your catalog that are quietly costing you sales

Operations

catches a fulfillment delay or a pricing mismatch before your customer has to be the one to point it out

Executive

one place to ask a question and get an answer, instead of five emails to five departments

Customer & support

answers routine buyer questions on its own, so your support team isn't the one doing it at 9 pm

CLIENT RESULTS

What it Delivers

Western Pacific, a B2B distributor of foodservice and ice equipment, rebuilt on Klizer: launches took a tenth of the time they used to, pricing went from a manual ERP lookup to 100% automated, integration uptime sits at 99.9%, and their team got more than 20 hours back a week that used to go into updating prices manually. 

Past the numbers, what actually changes day to day: pricing and inventory agree everywhere a customer might look. Less retyping the same order into two systems. Every team pulls from the same numbers instead of arguing about whose report is right. And a foundation that's actually ready to layer AI onto, instead of one more system bolted onto a mess.

What it Delivers

Connected Commerce Maturity Model

Most businesses aren't fully disconnected, and they're not fully optimized either. They're stuck somewhere in between, and that middle ground is where revenue quietly leaks out every week.

Stage

What it looks like

Disconnected Commerce

Every system has its own version of the truth, and none of them agree with each other.

Connected Commerce

Data moves between systems on its own, across both online and offline operations.

Operational Visibility

The team can actually see how the business is performing, not just how one platform is doing.

Operational Intelligence

The system catches a trend or a problem before a person would have noticed it.

Revenue Optimization

The business acts on what the data shows, and the leakage keeps getting smaller. This is roughly where your best-run competitors already are.

Most companies land somewhere between stage one and stage three. Every week spent there is a week a competitor who's already past it is quoting faster, pricing sharper, and answering a question you're still building a spreadsheet to reach. That gap doesn't sit still. It gets wider. Buyers are moving too.

More of them now expect to ask a question and get a straight answer, or lean on an AI assistant to find the right part or check stock, the same way they already do as consumers. That only works if the data behind it is right, so where you sit on this model isn't just an internal efficiency question anymore, it's what decides whether AI-assisted shopping actually works for the people buying from you.

Why Klizer

Connected Commerce is how we help manufacturers and distributors build something more
scalable than what they're running today.

Everything. One Team

Commerce strategy, ERP integration, ecommerce, and Operational AI. Planned and delivered by one team, so every part works together.

Beyond Go-Live

We don't stop at launch. We keep improving performance, solving new challenges, and helping your commerce ecosystem evolve.

Built Around Your Business

No pre-built solutions or disconnected tools. Every connected commerce ecosystem is designed around your operations, customers, and goals.

Results You Can Measure

Success isn't measured by launches or certifications. It's measured by faster operations, better customer experiences, and measurable business outcomes.

Every quarter spent waiting is a quarter a connected competitor spends pulling further ahead, in speed, in margin, and in the questions they can answer that you still can't.

Let's talk about where your systems stand today and what it'd take to get them working together.
