# Modernize B2B Trade, Without the VAN Tax.

Replace costly Value-Added Networks and brittle point-to-point connections with a cloud-native engine. Tavio translates complex EDI standards into developer-friendly JSON, unifying your legacy supply chain with your modern API ecosystem.

## How It Works

End-to-end tooling from transport to transformation, with data-as-configuration for repeatability and speed.

### Connect

Establish secure AS2 trading partnerships and manage certificates natively, or bridge to internal ERPs via our On-Premise Agent.

### Abstract

Stop parsing raw X12. Define your data models in JSON using Data as Configuration; map once and reuse logic across multiple trading partners.

### Validate

Auto-apply schemas and implementation guidelines (IGs). Preview errors with actionable guidance before a transaction ever fails.

### Operate

Monitor transactions, MDN acknowledgments, and SLAs alongside your API traffic in a single, searchable dashboard.

## The Tavio Difference

JSON Abstraction Layer

Unified Control Plane

AI-Assisted Mapping

Audit-Ready Compliance

## Everything you need for modern EDI

### AS2 Transport, Done Right

Native support for signed & encrypted messages, synchronous/async MDNs, and certificate rotation. We handle the handshake so you don't have to.

### Automated Acknowledgements

Never lose track of a shipment. Automatic MDN handling and correlation provides full-chain visibility, ensuring you have a verifiable proof-of-delivery for every transaction.

### JSON-Based Abstraction

EDI for the API generation. Build integrations in JSON; Tavio generates compliant EDI on egress and parses it on ingress. Faster development, fewer errors, no niche expertise required.

### Automated Validation

Prevent chargebacks. Validate against X12/EDIFACT schemas and partner-specific business rules automatically. Catch errors in the "Model" phase, not the "Production" phase.

### Marketplace Activation

Scale your partner network. Distribute pre-built EDI integrations via the Tavio Hub. Onboard new suppliers in minutes by deploying standard configurations rather than custom code.

### Unified Observability

Stop treating EDI as a "Black Box." View EDI logs, alerts, and health checks in the same dashboard as your API integrations. Democratize support with searchable, human-readable logs.

### Security & Sovereignty

Enterprise-grade trust. TLS 1.2+, isolated tenant environments, and Role-Based Access Control. Deploy globally to AWS regions to meet data residency requirements. On-Premise Agent for outbound-only connectivity to internal systems.

### AI assistance

Mapping Copilot: Suggest segment/element mappings from JSON to X12 automatically. Smart Validation: Explain cryptic EDI errors in plain English and propose fixes. Anomaly Detection: Flag unusual volume patterns or missing MDNs before they become SLA violations.

## Frequently Asked Questions

## Do my developers need to know how to write raw EDI? +

No. This is our primary differentiator. Tavio features a powerful EDI Abstraction Layer. Your team interacts with integrations using modern, familiar JSON. The platform automatically handles the complex generation, parsing, and validation of traditional X12/EDIFACT formats, eliminating the need for specialized EDI experts.

## How does Tavio EDI compare to a traditional VAN? +

Traditional VANs charge per-transaction fees and act as opaque “black boxes.” Tavio is a modern, cloud-native platform with a flat subscription model (no per-document fees). We provide full end-to-end visibility and allow you to manage EDI alongside your modern API workflows.

## How do MDNs and acknowledgements work? +

The platform manages the “handshake” automatically. We request, receive, and correlate all AS2 acknowledgements (MDNs) for every transaction. This provides a verifiable audit trail within your dashboard, allowing you to confirm message delivery without manual reconciliation.

## How do we connect EDI workflows to internal ERPs? +

You can securely connect cloud-based EDI workflows to internal systems (like SAP or Oracle) using the Tavio On-Premise Agent. It creates an encrypted, outbound-only connection, allowing you to move data from the cloud to your on-premise ERP without opening inbound firewall ports.

## How does this help me onboard partners faster? +

Our “Data as Configuration” model accelerates onboarding. Instead of treating every new trading partner as a coding project, you can deploy a standard “Solution” from the Tavio Hub and simply configure the partner’s unique certificates and identifiers. This reduces onboarding time from months to days.

## I already use Tavio for API integrations. Why use it for EDI? +

To achieve a Unified Control Plane. By managing EDI alongside your HR or ERP API integrations, you create seamless, end-to-end business processes (e.g., a “New Hire” in the ATS triggering a “Uniform Order” via EDI) within a single platform, rather than stitching together disparate tools.
