One AI Relay, Many ERPNext Installs

Inside the Noviz plugin architecture: a thin, open-source plugin that executes under the user's own Frappe session, while reasoning stays centralized behind a generic call-spec protocol.

Building an AI Layer for ERPNext: Using Frappe as the Execution Engine

Why the LLM should reason about intent, not become the database, reporting engine, or visualization engine — and how Frappe's own ORM and permissions do the rest.

AI Agent Architecture for ERPNext and Enterprise ERP Systems

A reusable, layered agent architecture beats a one-off integration per ERP: context, tools, and workflows sit between the LLM and a swappable ERP connector layer.

An Open-Source Foundation for Building AI Agents for ERP

ERP Agent AI is now free and open source under AGPL-3.0 — a working architecture and ERPNext reference implementation for developers building AI agents for enterprise ERP.

What Is an ERP AI Agent, and How Is It Different from a Chatbot?

What actually separates an ERP AI agent from a chatbot with an ERP API key: inherited permissions, enforced business rules, and a full audit trail.
