What eData does

eData Technologies is a US-based provider of Tier 1 EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) Value Added Network services, headquartered in New York and operating as a subsidiary of Strategema since its founding in 2003. The company serves manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, and retailers across apparel, footwear, home goods, electronics, food and beverage, automotive, software, and CPG sectors, with named enterprise customers including adidas, New Balance, Coleman, Haggar Clothing Co, XOXO, and US Polo Association. eData supports retail compliance for major buyers including Walmart, Amazon, and JCPenney, and integrates with Amazon FBA/FMB, Shopify, QuickBooks, and Sage ERP to extend connectivity across eCommerce and accounting workflows.

The product architecture is platform-and-module, centered on a Tier 1 EDI VAN that guarantees 99.995% uptime SLA, includes unlimited mailboxes, IDs, and trading partners, and is supported by US-based Platinum support with white glove migration. Add-on modules include DataMetrIQ for reporting, alerting, and process automation; Hosted EDI Services providing fully managed mapping and translation with UCC barcode 128 labels; and three subscription-priced plans (Amazon EZ.EDI at $150/month, Multi-Format to EDI at $250/month, DMQ Instant Intel at $350/month, each valid for 12 months). Custom services cover business intelligence, XML/EDIFACT/API-to-EDI conversion, vendor managed inventory, 852 POS reporting, chargeback avoidance, and EDI mapping/testing acceleration. The product brand "EDI+AI" signals positioning around AI-assisted process automation, though specific AI implementations are not technically disclosed.

Revenue is generated through recurring monthly subscriptions for hosted plans, fees for custom services and compliance support, and partner-driven white-label reselling. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales (phone, email, demo) with a White Label and Referral Partner Program that enables 3PLs, freight forwarders, factors, ERP/software vendors, and consultants to offer Tier 1 EDI VAN services under their own branding with their own pricing. In January 2026, eData merged with SAG to form TAGAT Foodtech, a São Paulo-headquartered platform bringing AI and IoT to the animal protein supply chain, marking a notable vertical and geographic expansion beyond its US-based EDI heritage.
