I was doing AI implementations for a company in Oil and Refined products. And I can tell you that AI can massively improve the processes and and streamline their operations. In fact, it can easily transform any data entry to structure data without the needless sw development of API integrations and gateways.

My first point as a contribution is, traders are lazy and operators are control freaks. In a way traders only care about doing deals so any trade entry in a system us prone to errors and misalignment, such as the ETRM system's reference data. And Operators are control freaks in a way that if they find our that your AI missed a single entry they will mistrust it forever. They rather spend more time copy pasting that to trust your AI. But any automation is welcome they still want to have control (which some in contrast will argue that that control is a nuisance and a waste of time).

Oh well, though customers is what they are.

I am really happy to know that there are others trying to solve the same problems in a world of ineffectiveness.

Yes, we have noticed traders just want to make more deals, and operators require their information to be accurate.

We are trying to develop super sleek and intuitive tools built to help traders update their ERP systems using LLMs and generative AI to better format their data.

We hope to prove that operators can actually get more accurate data into their systems faster because we provide tools for data entry that make it a breeze to get accurate data.

Additionally, we're trying to help our customers expand their businesses as well. As operations are generally their bottleneck, traders may not expand into business sectors because they are turned off by the overhead required to manage the operations.
