What happened

The platform, powered by OpenAI technology, includes hundreds of agents that support resellers, franchisees, and partners across registration, ordering, and day‑to‑day support. It integrates generative and predictive models with business rules to streamline the company’s vertically integrated supply chain and customer interactions. The company calls itself a "Lovetech," emphasizing technology that strengthens human connections. It has been recognized as a leading data‑driven company in Latin America.
