Advanced Amazon Integration
Many Stone Edge customers use the AMTU (Amazon Transport Utility) to shuttle order and inventory data between Stone Edge and Amazon. This utility is free, but it will no longer work after August 31st, 2023. Current information on this can be found here: Amazon. Technology Copilot has developed a drop-in replacement for the AMTU functionality that Stone Edge customers use. Technology Copilot has created this product in a way where all the existing Stone Edge methods work the same, so no Stone Edge changes are necessary to implement our solution.
Technology Copilot worked exclusively with Amazon to bring this product to market who helped with their guidance and expertise.

When Amazon announced the pending retirement of the AMTU, Technology Copilot sprang into action to develop a replacement. As a long-time user of a number of TechCopilot applications, we were excited they took on this project. This meant not even needing to look elsewhere or consider the other alternatives. The ultimate product justified our excitement. As the launch customer for the product, over a couple of days TechCopilot replaced first the order pull and then the fulfillment push functions of AMTU. Everything worked very smoothly, and a couple of data alignment issues were quickly fixed. Our transition occurred over Prime Day which in hindsight might not have been the ideal time to switch Amazon software, but the extra volume helped us all quickly realize everything was working well. This quick business development decision and action is typical of TechCopilot. So, is the high quality, glitch-free integration. They are also there for us when we need them be it normal business hours, nights, weekends, or holidays. For these reasons, there is no one we would rather trust our Amazon integration to than TechCopilot.
