A new kind of EDI platform

I’ve spent the past 1.5 years working on this project and it’s gratifying to finally release it to the EDI community. Tediware is for people who are problem-solvers and want to work with clean APIs. Developers, technically savvy teams, etc.

My initial focus is logistics (204, 214, 990, 210, etc.) because that’s what I know best, but I’ve invested in becoming an official X12 partner and the tech works beautifully with every release since 4010 and every transaction set. I’ve built out redundant infrastructure on AWS including AS2 integration (active with Walmart right now).

I created Tediware for a couple of reasons.

First, I think there’s a gap in the EDI marketplace for developer-focused tech. Stedi was in this space, then they switched focus to being a healthcare clearing house. Then there’s EDI Fabric / EDI Nation, but their solution is super limited: they do EDI/JSON translation, but you still have to figure out envelope config, partner profiles, file delivery, AS2 and mapping yourself. Tediware does EDI/JSON (that’s pretty easy, actually), plus all the other stuff.

I know there are some others out there but I’ve been a dev and designer for almost three decades and I’m not persuaded by what I see. I think there’s room for a company laser-focused on a great developer experience.

Second, EDI solutions are insanely expensive. The industry is dominated by PE firms, venture capital, etc. Everyone has horror stories about crazy price increases (I have one too, that’s what got me started).

These companies have way better margins than their customers, and that seems like bullshit.

Tediware’s pricing is aggressive and I’m keeping it that way. I haven’t taken a dime from investors. The only people I’m interested in being accountable to are my customers. I’ve included a free tier with 800 transactions/month, this gets you everything Tediware offers including AI assistance. No credit card needed, it’s designed for developers who want to test things out or for those people (who I do see pop up here from time to time) who have very low transaction volume and need an affordable solution.

It’s processing operations-critical EDI for two logistics companies, they are EDI-integrated with several well-known 3PLs including Ryder, Geodis, RXO and Ruan plus direct connections with many more partners.

If you’re interested in trying Tediware out, I’d love to hear from you. You can email me directly at adrian@tediware.com
