  "connection_note": "ANSI X12 is not a SaaS with an API — it is an EDI standard historically exchanged over VAN or AS2 connections. We parse, validate and generate X12 payloads offline with no API or credentials of our own; actually transmitting to a trading partner (via AS2/SFTP/VAN) and full X12 catalogue licensing through x12.org sit with your existing EDI infrastructure, which we confirm in discovery.",
  "what_we_automate": [
    "Parse incoming X12 and extract structured JSON for the CRM and AI layer",

  "answer_first": "EBROTECH bridges AI to ANSI X12 EDI without a VAN or AS2 gateway: X12 is the standard the US trading-partner ecosystem already speaks, not a SaaS with an API, so we parse, validate and generate 850/810/837/835 transaction sets and hand your CRM and AI layer clean structured data to work with.",
  "when_not_to_use": "If you need EU e-invoicing under EN 16931/PEPPOL instead of US EDI, see the PEPPOL BIS 3.0 Validator or a national profile. This one is specifically ANSI X12 as used in the US.",
