Turning complex data into profitable business opportunities

AI-driven matching in action: five industry applications

1. Industrial machines and spare parts matching

When manufacturers release new spare parts of products, they come with extensive technical documentation that usually only an engineer can truly understand. This makes it extremely difficult for less technical profiles like sales and marketing to match new products and new spare parts to existing clients and their product base.

🔹 How AI solves this: Instead of relying on manual filtering, AI scans product specifications and matches spare parts with customers’ existing equipment, ensuring that only the most relevant products are recommended. This reduces manual effort, improves sales efficiency, and enhances customer experience. The result? Faster transactions, lower return rates, and an increase in repeat business.

2. B2B wholesale and distribution

Wholesale distributors operate in highly competitive environments where margins are tight, and customer expectations are higher than ever. Buyers expect personalized recommendations, yet procurement teams are forced to manually sift through thousands of SKUs, struggling to identify which products align best with demand trends.

🔹 How AI solves this: AI eliminates guesswork by analyzing historical purchasing behavior, supplier updates, and pricing trends. This allows procurement teams to instantly match new supplier products with existing demand, ensuring they buy smarter, reduce waste, and optimize inventory levels. The impact? Faster purchasing cycles, fewer stock-outs, and increased profitability.

3. Legal and compliance document review

Legal teams and compliance officers drown in paperwork. Reviewing thousands of pages of contracts and regulations for risks, obligations, and inconsistencies is a slow, error-prone process. A single missed clause could result in costly penalties, reputational damage, or compliance failures.

🔹 How AI solves this: AI automatically scans and extracts key clauses, linking them to relevant case law or regulatory updates. Instead of reading entire contracts manually, legal teams receive highlighted sections with contextual recommendations, reducing review time by up to 70% while ensuring compliance risks are detected early. The result? Faster deal closures, reduced legal costs, and increased accuracy in compliance management.

4. Healthcare and pharmaceutical companies

Pharmaceutical companies struggle to identify the right researchers, hospitals, and healthcare providers for new drugs and clinical trials. Sales reps often rely on outdated databases and manual research, leading to missed opportunities and inefficient outreach.

🔹 How AI solves this: AI scans medical research papers, clinical trial data, and patient treatment histories, identifying which institutions or researchers are the best fit for specific treatments. Instead of blindly contacting medical professionals, sales teams receive precisely targeted recommendations. This results in faster adoption of new treatments, improved doctor engagement, and better patient outcomes.

5. Real estate and commercial property matching

Commercial real estate firms manage thousands of investment opportunities, but matching the right investor with the right property is an incredibly complex process. Investors have unique risk appetites, portfolio goals, and geographic preferences, making mass email blasts ineffective and traditional filtering methods insufficient.

🔹 How AI solves this: AI analyzes investor portfolios, regulations, and market trends, automatically surfacing the most relevant properties for each client. Instead of manually sorting listings, real estate firms can deliver tailored investment opportunities, increasing the likelihood of successful deals and repeat investors.

Why AI-driven matching is the future of decision-making

Traditional decision-making relies on manual review, predefined segmentation, and static rules, but AI is transforming this process. Instead of asking businesses to define segmentation criteria themselves, AI can analyze vast amounts of data, extract key attributes, and surface the best matches automatically.
