What Yeoman does for sellers

People used to type into Google or search a website to find a supplier. More and more, they ask an AI assistant instead. AI reads your business differently than a person does. It needs clean, structured product and pricing data it can actually query, and most distributor websites don't have that. Yeoman closes that gap for you in three steps.

You do not rip anything out. Your ERP, OMS, WMS, routes, and DSD all stay exactly where they are.

Integrate your ERP / OMS

Connect inventory or order management systems you already run, so Yeoman works from the same products, stock, and prices you and your team use every day.

Re-factor your catalog

We restructure your products, sizes, and pricing into the clean, consistent format AI systems need in order to understand what you sell.

Expose your Yeoman endpoint

You get a Yeoman endpoint that AI can read, so your business shows up when your customers ask an assistant where to order.

If you want to save money and simplify your business, you can also use Yeoman's built-in operating system — which includes a catalog, CRM, custom price lists, fulfillment hub, team permissions, and more.

What makes Yeoman different

You keep the systems you run

Many B2B ordering platforms ask you to move your ordering into their software. Yeoman works alongside your ERP and OMS instead, so you don't need a migration project or to retrain your desk.

Built for your AI buyers, not only human browsers

A website or PDF price sheet is written for people. Yeoman structures your catalog for AI, which is where a growing share of your customers' product searches now start.

Your customers each see their own price

Generic ecommerce storefronts usually show one price to everyone. Yeoman lets you give each customer a private price list, the way your sales desk already quotes.

Fulfillment is built in for you

Your incoming orders land in one hub where you can buy USPS or UPS labels, set a delivery date for your own drivers within your delivery radius, and download packlists.

An assistant that actually does the work

Main St GPT can read and act across your whole workspace. Ask it to invite a teammate or pull up an order, and it handles it for you instead of pointing you to a menu.

Your buyers are starting to ask AI assistants where to order, the same way they used to search Google. If your catalog isn't structured for AI, the assistant recommends someone else.

Yes. You can build private price lists for each customer, so your published catalog and your negotiated pricing live side by side.

Do I have to use the Yeoman workspace?

No. The workspace is optional. Use it if you want one place for your catalog, customers, pricing, fulfillment, and payouts.

What makes Yeoman different

Local trade supply for you, not only national catalogs

Broadline distributors and consumer marketplaces are built around national catalogs. Yeoman puts the local wholesalers in your area in front of you.

Your supplier's pricing, not a list price

When a supplier sets you up as a customer, you see the private price list they built for you.

One record of what you spend

Most ordering apps only track what you buy inside them. Yeoman also holds receipts from purchases you make outside it.

Made for you, not a procurement department

Yeoman is designed for you, whether you're a household or an owner-run business with a handful of locations.
