What is ERP•AI?
ERP•AI is a platform for building and running business software such as CRMs, inventory systems, HR tools, procurement portals, and full ERPs. You don’t have to write code. You can start from a ready-made app, build your own step by step, or describe what you need to Proto, the built-in AI agent, and let it build the app for you.
What you can do with ERP•AI

Three ways to get an app
- Install a published app. Pick an app from Browse Apps on the Home page (for example Procurement, B2B CRM, or Core HR) and click Activate app. ERP•AI sets up its tables, forms, roles, documents, workflows, and dashboards for you. See Browse and install published apps.
- Build it yourself. Create an empty app and add tables, fields, views, and workflows. See Quick start.
- Ask Proto. Describe your business process and Proto maps, builds, and reviews the app with you. See Proto AI agent.
Pricing in one sentence
ERP•AI has no base fee or subscription, and every new account starts with $100 of credit, valid for 1 month, so you can start using the platform right away. Viewing, searching, and manual record work in the app are free. Purchased credits never expire, and credits are used only for metered activity such as API calls, imports, workflow runs, AI, and storage beyond the included amount; you can top up whenever you need more. See Pricing, credits, and what things cost.
