AI FDE that deploys custom AI agents into ERPs

Trope deploys custom AI agents into ERPs for mid-market companies. Every ERP is heavily customized, so useful agents need custom deployment too. Trope’s AI FDE learns each business and ERP, then builds and deploys agents, turning the last mile from services into software.
