AI automation studio

The repetitive work, handled.

AI4BIZ builds reviewed workflows for marketplace stores, bookkeeping, and Facebook and WhatsApp conversations. Orders, ledgers, and replies move without another evening of copy and paste.

Built for owner-led businesses. Money, refunds, and tax stay behind a human gate.

What changes

Less copying between tabs. The judgment stays with you.

One queue

Marketplace orders, payout exceptions, and new conversations land in a single list instead of four inboxes.

Replies you already approved

Buyer questions and WhatsApp leads get a draft from your script. Off-script messages wait.

Books that match the shops

Settlements and fees are lined up with the channels you sell on, before the month is supposed to close.

How it works

Four steps. No black box.

  1. 01

    Map the workflow

    We sit with the person who does the job today and write the steps, the exceptions, and what must stay human.

  2. 02

    Connect the systems

    Shop admin, accounting software, Meta, and WhatsApp. Read-only first, wherever the platform allows it.

  3. 03

    Automate with gates

    The workflow drafts the action. Money, refunds, and customer sends wait for a rule you have approved.

  4. 04

    Hand it over

    You get a runbook, a queue of exceptions, and a weekly note on what the automation touched.

Services

Three practices. Pick the one that hurts this month.

01

E-commerce operations

Order flow, inventory, buyer messages, and listings across Etsy, Amazon, eBay, and your own web store.

One queue for every channel, with a person approving refunds and stock exceptions.

02

Bookkeeping

Payouts, expenses, and month-end pulled into the accounting software you already use.

A close packet your accountant can read, instead of a folder of screenshots.

03

Facebook & WhatsApp

Lead follow-up, appointment offers, and support replies on Facebook and WhatsApp from scripts you approve.

Faster replies, with quiet hours and a human takeover when a conversation needs one.

Sample stories

Layout placeholders, not client quotes

Sample. These quotes are invented for the page layout. Replace them with verified client stories before launch. They are not testimonials from AI4BIZ customers.

Sample Shop owner, sample
“The evening order check became a morning exception list. I still approve refunds. I stopped copying tracking numbers.”
Sample Bookkeeper, sample
“Payouts from two marketplaces land in the review queue already matched. I spend the close on the six lines that do not fit.”
Sample Studio lead, sample
“WhatsApp asks for a time, and the reply offers the open slots. Anything about a complaint waits for us.”

FAQ

Before the scoping call

What do you actually automate?

Repetitive operations: marketplace orders and stock, payout matching and expense sorting, and first replies on Facebook and WhatsApp. Each build starts from the checklist your team already follows.

Do you replace an accountant or a virtual assistant?

No. The workflow takes the copying and the sorting. Your accountant still closes the books. A person still handles refunds, disputes, and anything the rules do not cover.

What access do you need?

The least that lets the workflow read, then draft. Shop admin, accounting software, and Meta or WhatsApp business tools. We start read-only where the platform allows, and we write down every permission in the runbook.

How long is a first workflow?

A focused first workflow is typically scoped and in review within two weeks. Larger multi-channel builds take longer because the exceptions take longer to write down.

How does pricing work?

A fixed quote for the first workflow after a short scoping call, then a monthly retainer if you want the queue watched and the rules updated. There is no per-message meter on the intro call.

Will this message customers on its own?

Only under a rule you approved: which intents, which hours, and which phrases. Refunds, complaints, and anything off-script wait in a queue.

Where do form submissions go?

The Remix server stores them in Cloud Firestore and emails the studio with Nodemailer. The browser never writes to the database. Details are on the privacy page.

Can we start with one channel?

Yes. Most studios start with the inbox that hurts this month — one marketplace, the month-end close, or WhatsApp leads — and add the next queue after that one is boring.

Next step

Tell us which queue to take first.

A short form is enough. We reply by email with what a first workflow would and would not touch.
