# Riyex > Riyex is an agentic AI and software foundry. We build production software, data, and AI systems for B2B companies, with deep experience in fuel logistics, payments, and operations-heavy industries. Riyex is remote-first, based in Fort Worth, Texas, and founded in 2021. Engagements include scoped projects, fractional executive roles, advisory, and long-term production support. A concise services overview is available at https://riyex.com/services.md. ## Services - [Agentic AI](https://riyex.com/services/agentic-ai.md): Multi-agent architectures, custom workflows, and AI decision pipelines. We build systems that act, not just respond.

Operations tooling, internal platforms, customer-facing products. Typed, tested, observable. - [Strategy & Advisory](https://riyex.com/services/strategy-advisory.md): Vision-to-execution guidance from people who build the thing, not just plan it. Architecture reviews, AI adoption strategy, roadmapping. - [Support Operations](https://riyex.com/services/support-operations.md): Ongoing system care. Not an afterthought, but a discipline. We keep production healthy so your team can focus on building. - [AI & Automation](https://riyex.com/services/ai-automation.md): Machine learning and automation solutions that turn data into decisions.

Riyex is exploring a TMS integration layer for fuel carriers and retailers, connecting carrier TMSs and retailer systems through EDI, APIs, and file exchange. - Prototype use case: **Order and status updates**. Between carrier TMSs and retailer systems. - Prototype use case: **Invoice closeout**. Daily X12 210 or CSV, no duplicates. - Prototype use case: **Order history**. What was sent, where, and when. ## Guides - [What a fractional Chief AI Officer does, and when to hire one](https://riyex.com/guides/fractional-chief-ai-officer.md): The role explained from the seat itself. What the job covers, how fractional compares to a full-time hire, the signals you are ready, and what to demand from anyone you put in the chair. - [The fuel logistics data stack, mapped](https://riyex.com/guides/fuel-logistics-data-stack.md): A working map of the systems a mid-market fuel carrier runs, the two expensive gaps between them, and the sequencing that closes those gaps without a rip-and-replace. - [Automate the safest 20% first, then widen](https://riyex.com/guides/staged-automation-rollout.md): Big-bang automation dies on its edge cases, usually loudly. The staged rollout is the boring alternative that survives: explicit conditions, a climbing coverage number, and an ops team that never got burned. - [Tank outage monitoring for fuel carriers and marketers](https://riyex.com/guides/tank-outage-monitoring.md): A dry tank is lost pump revenue and a damaged contract, and it almost always happens with the warning signs already sitting in somebody's system. What working outage monitoring looks like. - [How to integrate a TMS that has no API](https://riyex.com/guides/tms-integration-without-apis.md): Your TMS (or your customer's) has no API, and the integration still has to happen. The five surfaces that exist below the API, when to use each, and the principles that keep them alive in production. ## Case studies - [Dispatch NOC puts 20,000+ active fuel tanks in one view](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-tank-noc-dashboard.md): A mid-market fuel carrier had tank-level inventory in Gravitate but no single operations view for finding low tanks across its customer base. We built a dispatch NOC dashboard that puts 20,000+ active tanks in priority order, so operators can spot inventory risk and turn it into the next delivery. - [Great Plains data pipeline bringing finance and operations together daily](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-great-plains-financial-integration.md): Integrated daily Great Plains accounting data and banking-provider pending-invoice data into a mid-market fuel carrier's existing data lake and data mart. Metabase now combines financial records with operating data for finance reporting, payables, billing-completeness curves, line-haul analysis, and revenue projections. - [Nightly TCEQ compliance sync preventing fuel drops at non-compliant Texas stores](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-tceq-compliance-sync.md): TCEQ delivery certificates commonly expire at month-end, turning 5,500+ Texas stores into a last-day compliance fire drill. We connected the Texas Open Data Portal to Gravitate so every site's delivery-certificate date updates nightly. One refresh surfaced 100 expired tanks before the next day's deliveries, avoiding up to $1M in potential fine exposure in a single day. - [Geofence tool clearing a 7,000-store fuel-delivery backlog in weeks](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-geofence-automation.md): A mid-market fuel carrier needed delivery geofences for 7,000 convenience stores. Its dispatch team had been creating roughly 1,000 a month by hand. We built a map-based tool that let the team draw each site boundary and save it directly to the TMS, clearing the remaining backlog in weeks instead of months. - [Spentra's core payments platform, rebuilt for daily deploys](https://riyex.com/work/spentra-api-rewrite.md): After six years running Spentra's AWS environment, we rewrote the core Money Earned API from an aging Ruby monolith into a serverless distributed system on AWS Lambda and API Gateway. Daily deploys, lower costs, no servers to patch. - [PCI DSS AWS operations for Spentra](https://riyex.com/work/spentra-aws-operations.md): Riyex has run Spentra's full AWS environment for over six years (EC2, RDS, ElastiCache, Lambda, and API Gateway) with PCI DSS maintained continuously. Spentra's engineering team stays focused on Money Earned while we keep the platform underneath it patched, monitored, and on-call. - [AI leadership for a fuel carrier building its next production systems](https://riyex.com/work/fractional-chief-ai-officer.md): After three production systems together, the same mid-market fuel carrier handed Riyex the AI leadership seat. As fractional Chief AI Officer we own the vision, the roadmap, and the governance for becoming the AI leader in fuel logistics. Early days, and we say so. The plan ships first; the wins get measured after. - [TMW invoice automation clearing 200+ invoices a day](https://riyex.com/work/tmw-invoice-automation.md): A mid-market fuel carrier processes roughly 1,200 TMW invoices a day. We automated its safest, most repetitive invoice types so 200+ now process touchless, while exceptions stay with the team and coverage expands release by release. - [Live fuel-load visibility for 5,000+ c-stores through real-time TMS integration](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-tms-integration.md): Connected a mid-market fuel carrier's Gravitate dispatch platform to the TMSs its 5,000+ c-store customers run, using Manifold, our TMS integration platform. Customers see live load status, cost, and ETAs in their own systems, place orders that land in Gravitate, and get a DTN-sourced digital BOL for every load. - [Data platform that gave a fuel carrier one view of outages, tolls, deliveries, and drivers](https://riyex.com/work/fuel-carrier-data-platform.md): Consolidated six systems (DTN, Gravitate, Samsara, Bestpass, TMW, Google) into one data platform for the same mid-market fuel carrier. Dashboards track tank outages across 5,000+ sites, hold toll spend to policy and reclaim $200K+ a year, score every delivery window by GPS geofence, and keep driver hours honest. ## Company - [About Riyex](https://riyex.com/about/): Team, values, and how Riyex works. - [Contact Riyex](https://riyex.com/contact/): Start a conversation about your operational problem. ## Optional - [Privacy policy](https://riyex.com/privacy/): Privacy practices. - [Terms of service](https://riyex.com/terms/): Terms of service.
