"The era of the pilot is over, the era of the agent is here."
Thomas Kurian said it twice from the main stage at Google Cloud Next '26 and the whole conference was scaffolded around it.
Here's what that timeline actually looks like:
2024 was hype. 2025 was prototype. 2026 is revenue.
The companies that get funded in the next eighteen months will be the ones that can show production deployments, not demos.
That's why we built SHAED on Google Cloud and why our AI lives inside real procurement workflows โ Shop, Track, Document โ instead of sitting beside them. Our platform isn't preparing to be production-ready, it already is.
Architect for production from day one, including the complicated parts. Identity. Audit logs. Governance. Evals.
Our CEO & Co-Founder Ryan Pritchard wrote up 20 lessons from his three days at Next '26.

Three things happen when every stakeholder works in the same system:
Instant quotes โ Real-time order visibility โ Every document, one place
Streamline the process with SHAED.
Shop. Track. Document.

Every time someone asks: โAny update?โ
Hereโs whatโs actually happening:
โข Work stops
โข Someone digs for info
โข Decisions get delayed
Multiply that across your business.
Thatโs real cost.
SHAED replaces โcheckingโ with knowing.

"Where's my truck?"
If you've ever managed commercial vehicle procurement, you've said it. Or heard it. Or sent it in an all-caps email at 4pm on a Friday.
It's not a people problem. It's a visibility problem.
SHAED is the unified platform bringing every stakeholder in the commercial vehicle procurement process and lifecycle together โ fleets, dealers, OEMs, upfitters, and service providers โ on a single connected system.
Shop. Track. Document.
From sourcing to delivery to paperwork, every step is tied together in real time.
So, the next time someone asks, "where's my truck?"
The answer is: there's my truck.

Congratulations to SHAED customer Pritchard Commercial on their recently awarded Sourcewell contract! This is a major milestone for fleet procurement access across the public sector and beyond, and SHAED is proud to be the technology behind this one.
Sourcewell cooperative contracts make it easier for government agencies to procure vehicles without lengthy bidding processes. Pritchard Commercial's award means more fleets get access to their expertise, faster.
And SHAED is the platform powering it.
From quote to delivery to documentation, SHAED connects every step of the commercial vehicle procurement process, giving Pritchard Commercial's customers the visibility and efficiency they need at scale.
This is exactly what the SHAED platform was built for.

Built on Google Cloud. Certified in AI. Ready for what's next.
SHAED's platform isn't just modern infrastructure - it's a deliberate choice.
We built on Google Cloud because enterprise fleets deserve enterprise-grade security, scalability, and speed. And our team went further โ earning Google Cloud AI certifications to ensure every layer of the platform is designed around the capabilities of today's AI, not yesterday's workflows.
For fleet operators, dealers, and OEMs, that means:
โ
A platform that scales with your business
โ
AI embedded in the procurement workflow
โ
The infrastructure to handle the full commercial vehicle lifecycle
The technology is ready. The team is certified. The platform is live.
