Order Fulfillment Automation

Automated order routing and fulfillment across warehouses and 3PLs.

Overview

What we deliver

We connect your store, ERP, and 3PL so orders flow from checkout to shipped without manual handoffs, with clear exception handling.

We build order fulfillment automation that moves every order from checkout to dispatch without anyone keying data between systems. Our workflows route orders to the right warehouse or 3PL based on stock, location, SKU rules, and service level. We handle splits, holds, fraud checks, address validation, and label generation, then push tracking back to the store and the customer. When something goes wrong, the system flags it to a named owner with the context they need to fix it. We integrate Shopify, NetSuite, ShipStation, ShipHero, and most major 3PL APIs, and we build custom connectors when needed. Every workflow is documented, monitored, and supported, so your operations team spends time on exceptions rather than typing orders. The result is faster shipping, fewer errors, and a clear view of order status across every channel and region you sell into.

Client stories

What clients say

"

My books were 90 days behind and I was avoiding my accountant. They cleaned up nine months of mis-categorized Shopify and Stripe entries, set up proper rules in QuickBooks, and now my close lands on day four of every month. First time in three years I opened a P&L without wincing. Cash forecasting actually makes sense now.

We were drowning in tier-one tickets about password resets and appointment changes. They built a deflection layer on top of our help desk and kept their agents in the loop for anything sensitive. Volume to humans dropped 58 percent in two months and our patient NPS held steady. The hybrid handoff is the part most vendors get wrong. They did not.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most.

Which 3PLs do you support?
We work with most major 3PLs that expose an API, including ShipHero, ShipBob, and direct WMS integrations.
Can you handle multi-warehouse routing?
Yes. We build rules that consider stock, location, service level, and cost to pick the best warehouse per order.
What about international orders?
We handle duties, tax, and carrier choice per region, and we integrate with customs and label providers.
How do exceptions work?
Failed orders enter a queue with full context, and named owners get alerts based on rules you set.
Do you replace our OMS?
Not always. We often automate around an existing OMS or 3PL portal, and we recommend a change only when it pays back.
