What Ventura does
Ventura builds an AI workforce for distributors and manufacturers, starting with quoting and order entry. It plugs into existing ERP systems, follows standard operating procedures, and learns a team's tribal knowledge to automate the manual data entry that inside sales teams typically perform.

Who it's for
Ventura serves industrial distributors and manufacturers whose inside sales teams spend heavily on manually typing quotes and orders into ERPs. By automating that work, reps shift from data entry to approving AI-generated quotes, with response times dropping from hours to minutes. The company was founded in 2025 by Jack Collins and Swen Koller, is based in San Francisco, and is Y Combinator-backed.
