Piston is a Paris-based AI-native ERP startup founded in early 2025, positioning itself as 'the first Agentic ERP' built from the ground up for artificial intelligence. The platform uses autonomous AI agents to manage supply chain, inventory, and back-office operations for mid-market companies that buy, stock, and sell physical goods. It orchestrates the full value chain from purchase order to invoicing, competing against legacy ERPs like SAP, Odoo, and NetSuite by claiming a rebuilt-from-scratch AI-native data foundation rather than bolt-on automation.
