OEMs and tier-ones on SAP, designed for the line.
Automotive has three sub-domains: the line, the supplier base, and the dealer network. Joule agents work the exception edges of each, where lost seconds and ppm errors compound into cost.
SAP validated our first 20 Joule agents in early 2026. The library keeps growing. Below are the agents that apply to automotive, plus concepts our agent factory can build next. See the full catalog
What each agent does on its own
Flags expedite, halt, or obsolescence with the action proposed per cluster. Critical when a JIT line is fed off MRP signal.
Triages PM notifications across body shop, paint, and assembly equipment.
Single buyer view of a supplier: spend, quality, delivery, financial signals, risk.
Detects overdue POs and surfaces reliability signals across supplier base.
Investigates inbound and outbound exceptions across plant warehouses.
Watches takt position vs sequenced kit arrival and drafts an expedite or sequence-swap when a kit is going to be late.
When a defect spikes at a supplier, contains the affected lots and impacted vehicles before they hit the customer.
Reads dealer service appointments and stock and drafts a replenishment order keyed to local demand.
Reads dealer claims, matches against warranty policy and labor-op codes, and drafts approval, denial, or info-request.
When a recall is issued, works out in hours which VINs, which dealers, and which parts are needed where.
