About Recurrency

Recurrency is a sales, pricing, and purchasing automation platform for distributors. Despite distribution being a multi-trillion dollar industry, the legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that exist to help distributors manage their purchasing, inventory, sales, order processing, and accounting are decades behind. For the most part, ERP systems are painfully slow, difficult-to-use, and soul-crushingly manual.

Recurrency’s goal is to reverse ERP stagnation by building a streamlined and intelligent ERP: blazingly fast and complete with powerful automation tools like dynamic pricing and demand forecasting. Using Recurrency can boost a distributor’s revenue and profit margins, while reducing waste and saving time. Most importantly, Recurrency is fully-integrated with the customer’s legacy system, so deploying Recurrency in production can be done in as little as one day.

About the role

The Company

Recurrency is revolutionizing demand planning and purchasing automation for the multi-trillion-dollar distribution industry. Legacy ERP systems - slow, complex, and manual - haven’t kept up with modern needs.

Backed by a $22M Series A led by Bessemer Venture Partners, Recurrency is reversing ERP stagnation with a blazingly fast platform. Our ML-driven forecasting and dynamic pricing automation help distributors increase revenue, boost margins, and cut waste - all while integrating seamlessly with existing ERPs for one-day deployment.
