MatruOS for a commodity broker
Set up the way a commodity broker runs: brokerage per quintal, tonne, tin or tanker on each sauda, from the buyer, the seller or both. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves
What a commodity broker deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Saudas made on calls; disputes later about rate or quantity. Brokerage billed quarterly; parties forget and short-pay.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 7 routines, 1 workflow, 2 registers and 5 licences for a commodity broker, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
Where you sit
MatruOS starts from how your business earns
Who you sell to, who you buy from, how credit moves and where you sit in the chain decide how your screens, reminders and reports are set up.
Your suppliers
- Market contacts and rate services
Credit and cash
Bills brokerage monthly or quarterly; parties pay in 30-90 days; between the parties the sauda's own dhara (7-30 days) applies
No stock. Monthly overheads of phone, office and juniors against brokerage that arrives 1-3 months after the sauda. Unpaid brokerage from a big party is the main loss.
