The Visibility Layer for Manufacturing

Get found by AI procurement agents

Argo INFRA generates your machine-readable factory profile, hosts it with live endpoints, and lists you in a verified registry that AI agents and procurement platforms query directly.

factory.json
{
  "name": "Sunrise Textiles",
  "capabilities": ["knitting", "dyeing"],
  "moq": 500,
  "certifications": ["GOTS", "OEKO-TEX"]
}

Factories are invisible to AI

The next wave of procurement runs on AI agents — and they can't see you. Your capabilities are locked in PDFs, buried in emails, or scattered across trade directories that no machine can parse.

The Buyer's Agent

Can't query factory capabilities

AI procurement tools need structured data — not brochures. Without a machine-readable profile, your factory doesn't exist in their search results.

Can't verify certifications automatically

Agents need to check GOTS, OEKO-TEX, or ISO compliance in milliseconds. Scanned PDFs and email attachments don't work.

Can't compare capacity and MOQs

Without standardized fields, agents can't match your open capacity to a buyer's order size. You lose to factories that are queryable.

The Factory's Reality

Data trapped in PDFs and catalogs

Your capabilities, certifications, and product specs live in documents that no AI agent can read or index.

Adoption is harder than it looks

Even with an open standard like factory.json, adopting it yourself means writing JSON, configuring servers, and keeping data fresh.

Profiles go stale within weeks

Capacity changes, new machines come online, certifications renew — but your online presence stays frozen in time.

How It Works

From invisible to AI-ready in three steps

No JSON to write, no servers to configure. Argo INFRA handles the entire pipeline from your existing documents to a live, queryable factory profile.

Step 1

Generate

Upload your docs, paste your website, or fill out a form. Our AI reads catalogs, cert sheets, and spec documents — then builds your machine-readable factory profile automatically.

Step 2

Publish

We host your profile with a live MCP server, RFQ inbox, and REST API — all in one click. Use your own domain or an Argo subdomain.

Step 3

Get Found

AI procurement agents query the Argo Registry. Your factory appears in search results, receives RFQs directly, and climbs agent rankings over time.

Built on the factory.json open standard — no vendor lock-in.

The Product

RFQ Ingestor — from documents to factory.json in minutes

You shouldn't need a developer to make your factory machine-readable. Upload your existing docs — catalogs, compliance certificates, capability sheets — and we'll generate your factory.json automatically.

Parse Any Format

PDFs, spreadsheets, images of spec sheets — our AI reads them all and extracts structured factory data.

AI Capacity Mapping

Automatically maps your machines, processes, and materials to standardized capability codes used by procurement agents.

Auto-Update Profile

Connect your systems and your factory.json stays current — capacity, lead times, and certifications update as things change.

Discovery

The Argo Registry — where agents find factories

A searchable, verified directory of AI-ready factories. Query by capability, certification, capacity, or location — through a web UI, REST API, or MCP server.

Verified Directory

Browse and filter factories by capability, location, certifications, and capacity. Every profile is schema-validated.

MCP Server

Connect any AI agent directly to the registry via Model Context Protocol. Your agent discovers and queries factories natively.

REST API

Programmatic access to the full registry. Search, filter, and retrieve factory.json profiles for integration into your procurement stack.

API Request
GET /api/v1/factories
    ?capability=cut-and-sew
    &certification=GOTS
    &moq_max=1000
    &location=IN

Agentic SEO

From invisible to prioritized

SEO was about Google rankings. The next frontier is agent rankings — how AI procurement tools decide which factories to recommend. Argo INFRA gets you there.

Invisible

Your factory data lives in PDFs and emails. AI agents can't find you. You rely on word-of-mouth and trade shows.

Discoverable

You publish a factory.json. Agents can query your capabilities, certifications, and capacity. You appear in search results.

Prioritized

Verified data, response history, and freshness scores push you to the top. Agents recommend you first.

"The factories that are machine-readable today will be the ones AI agents recommend tomorrow."

Open Standard

Built on factory.json — an open standard, not a walled garden

Your Argo INFRA profile is powered by factory.json, an open schema maintained independently at factoryschema.org. Your data is portable, interoperable, and yours. If you ever leave Argo, you take your factory.json with you.

No Vendor Lock-in

factory.json is an open standard. Export your profile anytime and host it yourself, or use it with any compatible platform.

Interoperable

Any platform that reads factory.json can discover your factory — Argo just makes it effortless to create, host, and keep it fresh.

Is your factory ready?

AI procurement is here. The factories that are discoverable get the RFQs. Set up your profile in minutes.
