Walter
An AI employee for the manufacturing back office. Walter signs into the ERP a factory already runs - SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 or Oracle - the way a new hire would, using the same screens, and takes over manual work: entering purchase orders, ordering from suppliers and catching pricing errors before they ship. YC 2026.

Our take
An AI employee for the manufacturing back office. Walter logs into the ERP a factory already runs - SAP, Dynamics 365 or Oracle - the way a new hire would, working from Teams and email, and takes over the manual load: entering purchase orders, ordering from suppliers and catching pricing errors before they ship. No integration project. YC 2026. Agent; outcomes vendor-reported.
Best for
Packaging and industrial manufacturers whose back office is buried in manual ERP data entry.
Pros
- Logs into existing ERPs like a human, no integration
- Handles POs, supplier ordering, pricing checks
- Works from Teams, Outlook and Gmail
- Targets old ERPs with the heaviest manual load
Cons
- Very early (founded 2026)
- Manufacturing back-office focus only
- Outcomes are vendor-reported
How it compares
Where Korso wires into ERP and CRM via integrations, Walter's wedge is operating the existing system through its own screens, so there's no integration project to run.
Full review
Walter is an AI employee for the manufacturing back office. Rather than building another integration, it signs into the systems a factory already runs - SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 or Oracle - using the same screens and buttons a new hire would, and works out of Teams and email like the rest of the team.
It takes over the manual work no one wanted: entering purchase orders, ordering from suppliers, and catching pricing errors before they ship, turning a 15-minute purchase order into a few seconds. Walter is part of Y Combinator's 2026 batch and starts with packaging and industrial manufacturing, where ERPs are oldest and the manual load is heaviest. As an early agent its claims are vendor-reported.

NotebookLM
Google's source-grounded research assistant: upload docs, PDFs and links, then ask questions, generate study guides, and turn sources into audio and video overviews. The free tier is genuinely usable; Plus raises the limits.
OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified API and marketplace for large language models. With one account and key you can reach 300+ models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Mistral, Cohere and many smaller providers, using an OpenAI-compatible interface. It charges passthrough rates (provider cost plus a small markup) and publishes live pricing and usage-based model rankings, so you can compare options and route to the cheapest, fastest or most reliable one. It supports automatic fallback across providers and a free-model tier for experimentation; the main costs to watch are a 5.5% credit-card fee, which hits small top-ups hardest, and a 5% bring-your-own-key fee on requests above one million per month.
