SokoFlow AI builds WhatsApp ERP with Groq LLM integration

SokoFlow AI is developing a WhatsApp-based ERP system for Kenyan small and medium enterprises, focusing on natural language shop analytics. In its second week of development, the project successfully integrated three tools—get_sales_summary, get_stock_level, and get_top_products—with a PostgreSQL database. A key learning was the importance of separating concerns, particularly by creating an LLMClient to act as a gateway and translator, preventing provider-specific details from leaking into the main application and ensuring easier future switching between LLM providers like Groq and OpenRouter.
