For e-commerce operations managers

An AI assistant for e-commerce operations.

E-commerce operations managers use Kaer for the weekly round behind every login: stock checks, reorders, late deliveries and the Monday numbers. Kaer collects the data and builds the orders, and every order waits for your approval. Buying decisions and supplier relationships stay with you.

Which jobs come off an operations manager's list first?

The ones that mean logging in to five sites and copying numbers between them.

  • Reorders

    Reads the stock sheet, finds the lines below your reorder point and builds each order on the supplier's portal.

    Waits for you: the click that places the order.

  • Supplier price checks

    Pulls price, minimum order and availability from several portals into one table.

    Waits for you: nothing. It reads and reports.

  • Late deliveries

    Checks status in each portal and drafts a chase for whatever is overdue.

    Waits for you: every email.

  • “Where is my order?”

    Looks the order up in Shopify in its own browser and drafts the reply.

    Waits for you: the reply.

  • The Monday numbers

    Collects what sold, what is low and what is overdue, and writes the same report each week.

    Waits for you: posting to Slack.

What does a reorder week look like?

You review and decide, and the logging in happens without you. Here is an example, built from the jobs above.

  • Monday

    The stock report is waiting, with low lines flagged.

  • Tuesday

    Reorders are built on each portal. You check the quantities and approve each one.

  • Wednesday

    A price table covers the products you are thinking of moving to another supplier.

  • Thursday

    Chases for late deliveries are drafted, and you send the ones that matter.

  • Friday

    Confirmations and invoices from the week are filed in Drive, under each supplier.

What stays with you?

The calls that cost money if they are wrong.

  • What to buy

    Kaer applies your reorder rules. Changing them for a promotion or a slow month is your call.

  • The final order

    A click Kaer recognises as placing an order or paying gets an Approve card. Name the final button in your brief.

  • Supplier relationships

    Negotiation and the difficult conversations stay with a person.

  • Exceptions

    When a portal asks for something unexpected, Kaer asks you on a card.

How do you show your manager it works?

Run a small test on real orders and bring the record. Each task keeps the steps it took.

  1. 01Start with one supplier

    Choose a portal you use often, with a repeat order you place every month.

  2. 02Time the manual run

    Note how long your next order takes by hand.

  3. 03Run it with Kaer

    Brief it in a Work chat, approve the final click and repeat for a few orders.

  4. 04Bring the evidence

    Show the task record, the time you spent and the usage it cost.

Questions

Does Kaer connect to Shopify?
It works Shopify in its own browser, with you signing in. There is no direct connection today.
Can it run while I am out of the office?
Yes. A workflow can run on a schedule and leave orders waiting for your approval. A portal that asks for a one-time code at sign-in still needs you at that step.
What if a supplier's portal blocks automated browsers?
Kaer tells you and offers you control, and it does not try to get past the block. Some suppliers restrict automated access in their terms, so check first.
