AI Agents

 More than software. AI that acts, decides, and works like a teammate.

GreenSpark combines an industry-leading scrap platform with AI agents that act like digital teammates. Traditional software waits for people to do the work. GreenSpark’s agents actively move work forward.

GreenSpark’s core platform runs your entire scrap operation without AI. AI agents are an optional layer on top for teams that want to move faster and reduce manual work. When enabled, agents monitor activity across dispatch, tickets, pricing, inventory, and logistics, then prepare or complete next steps inside GreenSpark. Your team stays in control while agents quietly handle repetitive follow-ups and routine work.

What Is An Agent

Think of agents as digital coworkers inside your software

Traditional software is a tool you use to do the work. It waits for you to tell it what to do. AI agents are different. They are digital coworkers that do the work with you. 

GreenSpark agents continuously monitor what’s already happening in your operation, understand context, decide what needs to happen next, and either prepare the work or complete it under rules you control.

How Agents Work

What agents can actually do for your scrap yard

They watch the work your team already does

Agents monitor things like incoming dispatch emails, open tickets, inventory movements, pricing updates, and export timelines so nothing slips through the cracks.

They prepare the next step for you

Instead of someone retyping information or chasing details, agents draft tickets, trips, bookings, documents, or updates using the data already in GreenSpark.

They notice when something needs attention

If a request hasn’t been scheduled, a ticket looks incomplete, a price needs updating, or a shipment is approaching a cutoff, the agent flags it before it becomes a problem.

They handle routine follow-ups when allowed

For repetitive, low-risk tasks, agents can complete the work automatically based on your rules, such as creating records, updating statuses, or sending confirmations.

They connect work across teams

Agents help ensure dispatch, operations, commercial, and finance stay aligned by carrying information forward instead of forcing people to re-enter or reconcile it later.

Everything is logged and reviewable

Every action an agent takes is visible, traceable, and reversible, so you always know what happened and why.
Why Agents Matter

How agents change the day-to-day for your team

Agents don’t replace people. They reduce the busywork that slows people down.

  • Less time spent on emails, manual entry, and checking statuses
  • Fewer things forgotten during busy days
  • Cleaner data moving from one team to the next
  • More time focused on customers, decisions, and running the yard
Agentic Framework

How agents work: observe → reason → act

 You choose which parts of the loop run on their own and which steps require human approval.

1. Observe

Agents connect to the systems running your yard, reading emails, service requests, tickets, contracts, and logistics data in real time.

2. Reason

Using your business rules and thresholds, agents identify what matters, prioritize work, and route it to the right yard or person.

3. Act

Agents complete the task automatically or generate an approval-ready draft, keeping GreenSpark and connected systems in sync.

AI Safety & Trust

How We Keep You in the Driver’s Seat

Your yard is complex. Any automation should make work easier, not introduce risk. GreenSpark’s agents are designed to support your team under clear rules, with full transparency and human oversight.

You decide what agents can do

Agents only work where you allow them to. You choose which areas they can support and what kinds of actions they can take. 

Clear guardrails prevent surprises

Every agent operates within limits you define. If something falls outside those boundaries, the agent pauses and asks for approval.

Nothing happens without visibility

Every action an agent takes is recorded. You can always see what it did, when it happened, and why.

Your data stays yours

Agent activity is isolated to your operation. Each yard’s data stays separate, and all information is encrypted and protected.

People stay in charge

If an agent is unsure, it asks. If something doesn’t look right, you can pause or turn it off at any time.

Is GreenSpark just an AI product, or can I use it

Short answer: You can run your entire scrap operation in GreenSpark without AI.

GreenSpark is a complete, industry-leading scrap platform that handles ticketing, inventory, logistics, commercial, finance, reporting, and integrations on its own. AI agents are an optional layer for teams that want to reduce manual work and move faster. You decide if and when to use them.

What problems do AI agents actually solve in a scrap yard?

AI agents help reduce the manual follow-ups and coordination that slow teams down.

They watch activity across dispatch requests, tickets, pricing, inventory, and logistics, then prepare or complete routine next steps. This means fewer missed requests, less re-typing, cleaner handoffs between teams, and fewer end-of-day surprises.

Do I lose control when AI agents are enabled?

No. You stay in control at all times.

You decide which agents are enabled, what they are allowed to do, and which actions require approval. Every agent action is logged, reviewable, and reversible. If something looks off, you can pause or disable an agent instantly.

What makes GreenSpark’s AI different from chatbots or generic AI tools?

Many software companies use chatbots to appear AI-driven while limiting human support and pushing work back onto customers. Those tools talk about the work but don’t actually do it.

GreenSpark agents are built for execution. They operate inside your system of record, follow your rules, and help complete real operational tasks. They exist to make your team more efficient, not to distance you from support or replace human judgment.

Which teams can use AI agents today?

GreenSpark offers agents for the roles that handle the most coordination and manual work.

Today, agents support dispatch, operations, commercial teams, finance and accounting, and exports. Each agent mirrors a real job in the yard and focuses on the workflows that matter most to that role.
