AI agents for operations teams in ecommerce
Actionist is an AI automation tool whose agents operate the apps your ecommerce operations team already uses, from recounting stock by hand nightly to an agent syncing it and drafting the PO before a SKU hits zero.
Ecommerce ops teams get back the hours lost to stock checks, fulfilment chasing, and RMA paperwork.

Where you spend your time
We know how your week actually goes
- Stock stays synced across every channelShopify, Amazon, and eBay share one stock count, so a sale on one channel never oversells another.
- The warehouse gets today's priorities firstYour 3PL or pick-pack team gets the day's orders ranked by ship deadline before the morning cutoff, not after.
- Shipment delays caught before the complaintTracking is checked against the promised window daily, so a late label is flagged before the shopper emails asking.
- Restock POs go out before a SKU hits zeroLead times are tracked against sell-through, so the purchase order drafts while there is still stock left to sell.
- Every RMA logged and routed the day it landsReturn requests are checked against the order and policy, and eligible ones move to approval the same day.
- Built around your ops stackThese are examples of what an ecommerce operations agent can do. Build a custom agent for whatever your team repeats.
And hundreds of other tasks you do manually..
An agent can take a lot off your team's plate. Take a look below to see the time and cost you could save by adding AI agents to your Ecommerce Operations team's day.
Where the hours go
Stock counts drift apart the moment a product sells on more than one channel, so someone ends up recounting Shopify against Amazon and eBay by hand to catch the oversell before a customer orders something that is not actually there.
An agent checks stock across every connected channel on a schedule, reconciles the count the moment a sale or return lands, and flags any SKU where the numbers stop matching, so nothing sells twice.
A carrier scan goes quiet for two days and nobody notices until the shopper emails asking where the order is, because checking tracking across every carrier for every open order is not a job anyone has time to do daily.
An agent checks tracking status across your carriers on a schedule, flags any shipment that has gone quiet past the expected window, and drafts the customer update for approval before the complaint ever arrives.
Restock purchase orders get drafted the week a SKU actually hits zero, because tracking sell-through against supplier lead time for every product line is the kind of math that keeps getting pushed to tomorrow.
An agent tracks sell-through against each supplier's lead time, drafts the purchase order while stock is still on the shelf, and queues it for your approval so restocks go out before the gap, not after.
Product listings drift out of accuracy across Shopify, Amazon, and eBay because auditing every image, price, and description line by line across three storefronts is admin nobody schedules time for.
An agent scans active listings across your channels for missing images, mismatched prices, and stock discrepancies, then produces a ranked errors report so corrections happen before a bad listing costs a sale.
Actionist Will Automate
What one automation looks like
A week with your Ecommerce Operations agents
Some of the apps for your Ecommerce Operations team
Some of the ecommerce ops apps your agent operates for you. Hundreds more are in the Actionist App Store.
Your Agent wakes up Automatically whenever something happens
Your agents watch the apps you already use and act the moment something happens, usually within about a minute, handle it based on your instructions, 24/7.
When the scheduled inventory check finds a SKU at or below its reorder threshold, the agent flags it to the ops channel within about a minute, showing the current count, the sell-through rate, and a purchase order already drafted against the supplier's confirmed lead time, ready for approval before it is sent.

You stay in control
An agent touching your orders, stock, and supplier relationships only earns trust if you stay in control. Actionist is built so you see everything it touched, approve anything that reaches a shopper or a supplier, and own every record it creates.
A delay update, a return decision, or anything else that reaches a customer is drafted first and queued for your sign-off. Nothing goes to a shopper on its own unless you widen that autonomy yourself.
Every purchase order and supplier follow-up is drafted and held for approval before it goes out, so the first thing a supplier sees from Actionist is something you already reviewed.
Every count the agent corrects, every PO it drafts, and every listing it flags is logged in a timestamped record so you can see exactly what changed, when, and why.
Stock counts, order details, and supplier terms are encrypted and never used to train any model. Self-host on a VPS if everything needs to stay on your own infrastructure.
