Capability match
What Nauta offers, custom-built for you.
Our agents can perform the same kinds of actions, designed around your workflow, your systems and your data instead of a one-size-fits-all product.
| Nauta offers | Cloud28.ai, customized to you |
|---|---|
| A Company Brain that learns from email, documents and rules | A private knowledge layer built from your inboxes, SOPs, rate sheets and mappings, hosted in your environment if required. |
| Mission-driven agents that own outcomes within limits | An orchestrator and sub-agents, each with an explicit mission and limits, like the agent team we run in production for a freight forwarder. |
| People review, approve, correct or override | An Exception Desk and approval gates. Uncertain items stop for a person with evidence attached. |
| Works inside email and documents | Email and documents plus EDI, SFTP, AS/400, ODBC and supervised screen automation. |
| Agents for finance, procurement and logistics | Custom agents for freight audit and invoice matching, supplier POs, bookings, tracking and customs paperwork. |

What is Nauta?
Nauta positions itself as “your AI partner, powered by an AI operational brain.” Its Company Brain learns from email, documents and rules; mission-driven agents act within limits and hand off to people. It serves healthcare, insurance, finance, logistics and customs, global trade, manufacturing, distribution and retail, and cites SOC 2 Type II.
The core difference
Nauta and Cloud28.ai agree on the big idea: agents should execute, and humans should decide what matters. The difference is how you get there.
Nauta is a cross-industry product: you adopt its brain and agent catalog. Cloud28.ai builds your agent team from scratch around your operation — your customer formats, your codes, your TMS screens — and operates it with you. Where your systems are old, closed or on-prem, or where data can't leave your network, our legacy connectors and private open-weight LLM deployment are the deciding factors.
Who should choose which
A fair fit check.
Choose Cloud28.ai if
- Your workflow is specific — customer formats, codes and rules no catalog covers.
- You run legacy TMS/WMS, EDI or AS/400 systems with limited APIs.
- You need the model to run privately, on your data, in your environment.
- You want a partner that builds, operates and improves the agents with you.

FAQ
Is Cloud28.ai a Nauta alternative?
Yes, especially for logistics operators that need bespoke agents, legacy-system access or private model hosting.
Do Cloud28.ai agents act or only recommend?
They act — posting rows, sending updates, booking slots — and stop for a person whenever confidence, rules or money thresholds require it.
Can we start with one workflow?
Yes. That's the default: one workflow, measured, then expand.
