Argo INFRA — The Visibility Layer for Manufacturing

Factories are invisible to AI

The next wave of procurement runs on AI agents — and they can't see you. Your capabilities are locked in PDFs, buried in emails, or scattered across trade directories that no machine can parse.

The Buyer's Agent

Can't query factory capabilities

AI procurement tools need structured data — not brochures. Without a machine-readable profile, your factory doesn't exist in their search results.

Can't verify certifications automatically

Agents need to check GOTS, OEKO-TEX, or ISO compliance in milliseconds. Scanned PDFs and email attachments don't work.

Can't compare capacity and MOQs

Without standardized fields, agents can't match your open capacity to a buyer's order size. You lose to factories that are queryable.

The Factory's Reality

Data trapped in PDFs and catalogs

Your capabilities, certifications, and product specs live in documents that no AI agent can read or index.

No standard format for factory data

Every directory asks for different fields. There's no universal schema that says "this is what a factory can do" in a way machines understand.

Profiles go stale within weeks

Capacity changes, new machines come online, certifications renew — but your online presence stays frozen in time.

The Standard

factory.json — your factory as structured data

A single, open schema that describes what your factory can do — in a format any AI agent, procurement platform, or search engine can read.

Capabilities

Machines, processes, materials — what you can actually produce.

Trust

Certifications, audit history, and compliance — verifiable on-chain or via API.

Constraints

MOQs, lead times, capacity windows — so agents know if you're a fit before reaching out.

Endpoints

RFQ inbox, API hooks, MCP server URI — how agents should interact with you.

The Product

RFQ Ingestor — from documents to factory.json in minutes

You shouldn't need a developer to make your factory machine-readable. Upload your existing docs — catalogs, compliance certificates, capability sheets — and we'll generate your factory.json automatically.

Parse Any Format

PDFs, spreadsheets, images of spec sheets — our AI reads them all and extracts structured factory data.

AI Capacity Mapping

Automatically maps your machines, processes, and materials to standardized capability codes used by procurement agents.

Auto-Update Profile

Connect your systems and your factory.json stays current — capacity, lead times, and certifications update as things change.

Discovery

The Argo Registry — where agents find factories

A searchable, verified directory of AI-ready factories. Query by capability, certification, capacity, or location — through a web UI, REST API, or MCP server.

Verified Directory

Browse and filter factories by capability, location, certifications, and capacity. Every profile is schema-validated.

MCP Server

Connect any AI agent directly to the registry via Model Context Protocol. Your agent discovers and queries factories natively.

REST API

Programmatic access to the full registry. Search, filter, and retrieve factory.json profiles for integration into your procurement stack.

API Request

GET /api/v1/factories
    ?capability=cut-and-sew
    &certification=GOTS
    &moq_max=1000
    &location=IN

Agentic SEO

From invisible to prioritized

SEO was about Google rankings. The next frontier is agent rankings — how AI procurement tools decide which factories to recommend. Argo INFRA gets you there.

Invisible

Your factory data lives in PDFs and emails. AI agents can't find you. You rely on word-of-mouth and trade shows.

Discoverable

You publish a factory.json. Agents can query your capabilities, certifications, and capacity. You appear in search results.

Prioritized

Verified data, response history, and freshness scores push you to the top. Agents recommend you first.

"The factories that are machine-readable today will be the ones AI agents recommend tomorrow."
