In this video, I build a logistics analytics dashboard designed to provide key information to a carrier or broker. I start with a simple Next.js app that's connected to Tediware with an API key but has no EDI functionality, then get to work using Claude Code and Tediware's MCP server. Source code is provided.
The X12 reference now has 1,576 sample EDI files covering 334 transaction sets on releases 004010 through 008010. This is, to my knowledge, the largest and most comprehensive free database of sample EDI files on the Internet.
I come across a lot of articles about how AI will change EDI. Few, if any, describe the changes that are already here. This post focuses on support, and you'll see how Tediware saves time and - most importantly - reduces friction between trading partners.
It's been fun watching Meta and OpenAI launch AI products with the design sensibility I developed for Tediware more than two years ago. When I started developing the brand, I wanted something that fit with the vision I had for EDI software that is truly easy to use.
Tediware has launched an official MCP server for EDI, giving builders a new set of tools that unlock significant productivity gains. Developers, EDI professionals and hands-on business operators can easily connect systems and build brand-new applications that send and receive EDI data for any X12 transaction set.
Right now is enterprise software buying season, in which well-intentioned people who have never done the job make purchasing decisions for employees who do.
If you're building software that integrates with X12 EDI and you're struggling to name a database field, don't worry: X12 already named it. Here's when to copy their names, when to store their codes, and when to stray.
This is the third and final post about Tediware's JSON format, i.e. the JSON Tediware produces when you use it to convert EDI to JSON. This post focuses on how Tediware handles Hierarchical Level (HL) documents like the 856 ship notice.
This is the second of three posts about Tediware's JSON format, i.e. the JSON Tediware produces when you use it to convert EDI to JSON. This post focuses on how Tediware produces a logical structure.
This is the first of three posts about Tediware's JSON format, i.e. the JSON Tediware produces when you use it to convert EDI to JSON. This post focuses on readable keys and values.
A coding agent deceived me during an ordinary coding session, raising troubling questions about what happens to software development when models start lying to their users.
Paste an X12 document to view it decoded, with one segment per line annotated with human-readable information and checked against the X12 standard. Also available in the terminal as tedi edi inspect.
There's a battle taking place right now between EDI companies over the future of the industry in the context of artificial intelligence. Which companies have earned the right to advertise agentic EDI? To answer this question, we need a framework.
As more people use coding agents, the experience that those agents are having is increasingly important. I've designed something novel: an API for those agents to send me their ideas and suggestions as they work with Tediware.
One click builds a complete working trading partner (Walmart or Petco) with a connection, mappings, flows, and seeded documents, so you can run a real inbound and outbound exchange and then take it apart to see how it works.
The US administration's decision to shut down Claude Mythos 5 and Fable 5 on Friday doesn't just jeopardize Anthropic. It jeopardizes the future of the entire US AI industry. Because when people realize that it takes just the stroke of a pen to cut them off from an essential resource, they start planning for a future where they are no longer vulnerable.
I spent several months building, testing and refining an agentic pipeline capable of reliably importing a trading partner implementation guide into Tediware. This is a guide to building your own.
Private equity has been purchasing vet clinics, dental practices and funeral homes, and people are furious about it. Prices go up, service declines and people get mad, but they're stuck. It's the same pattern in EDI.
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.
