Everything you need to know about BigShop AI, migration, pricing, and integrations.
BigShop AI is built with native AI and computer vision from the ground up. Instead of manual data entry, BigShop automatically reads vendor invoices, matches line items to purchase orders, scans parts barcodes with instant VIN fitment checking, uses FaceID for attendance, and generates customer-ready inspection notes with automated translation.
Simply take a photo or upload a PDF of any vendor parts invoice (such as FleetPride or Napa). BigShop AI's OCR instantly extracts part numbers, quantities, unit prices, core charges, and taxes, automatically reconciling them against your open Purchase Orders and flagging cost discrepancies before payment.
