AI Agents

Custom AI Agents for Commerce

A custom AI agent is a purpose-built assistant that can take actions on your systems, not just answer questions, designed around one job in your business.

We build agents for Canadian commerce teams that connect to Shopify, HubSpot, ERP, and your data to handle sales, service, ops, and research tasks with guardrails and human handoff.

How we build agents that take action

We ground each agent in your product, customer, and order data so answers reflect reality, not generic training data.
Agents get scoped tool access: read orders, create draft records, tag CRM contacts, never unrestricted admin keys.
Guardrails define what can be said to customers, what requires approval, and when to hand off to a person.

Custom AI Agents FAQ

A custom AI agent is a purpose-built assistant that can take actions on your systems, not just answer questions, designed around one job in your business. It can look up orders, draft quotes, update CRM records, or route tasks based on rules you define.

A chatbot typically answers FAQs from a script. An agent connects to Shopify, HubSpot, ERP, and internal data, then performs tasks: check inventory, create drafts, summarize accounts, or escalate with full context. Agents do work, not just conversation.

Agents can support sales quoting, customer service, inventory checks, reorder recommendations, account research, and internal ops requests. Each agent is scoped to one job so outputs stay accurate and auditable.

A focused agent with one integration surface typically takes 4 to 8 weeks. Agents with multiple systems, voice, or complex approval logic take 8 to 14 weeks. We scope an MVP first so you see value before expanding capabilities.

Yes. We build agents with tool access to Shopify Admin APIs, HubSpot, ERP endpoints, and internal databases. Grounding in your live data is what makes a commerce agent useful instead of generic.
