Automate the work, not the judgment
Good retail automation removes typing, not decisions. Vendee Pro does the repetitive work, pulling inventory, computing forecasts, grouping reorders by vendor, building the PO, and then hands you a clean decision to approve. You get the speed of automation with none of the "the robot ordered 4,000 units" risk.
What runs automatically
Inventory & catalog sync
Products, variants, locations, on-hand inventory, and orders sync two ways with Shopify in real time, with automatic safety-net syncs as a backstop. Receive a PO and one click on Sync to Shopify adds the units at the right location.
Forecast-driven reorders
Per-SKU reorder rules plus demand forecasting generate vendor-grouped draft POs. Review the suggested quantities and confirm with one click.
Scheduled reports
Save a report view in Report Studio and schedule it for automatic email delivery. Sell-through, dead stock, OTB, and margin reports arrive without anyone pressing run.
Stock-health checks in one click
Save a check like "flag anything under two weeks of cover" as a macro and run it with one click, and the weekly AI digest emails what needs attention so nothing slips.
Why confirm-before-write matters
Automation that can silently change your store is a liability. In Vendee Pro, background sync is automatic, but every action that writes, receiving a shipment, publishing a product, pushing inventory, waits for your confirmation, and every change is logged. That is how you automate safely on top of a live Shopify catalog.
Pairs with the AI assistant
Automation handles the schedule; the AI assistant handles the one-offs. Ask Ava to "draft a reorder of last fall's top 20 from Bellaire Studio" and it does the work on demand, the same confirm-before-write way. See the Shopify integration for what syncs automatically.
Frequently asked questions
What can Vendee Pro automate for my Shopify store?
Two-way inventory and catalog sync, demand-forecast reorder suggestions, vendor-grouped draft purchase orders, scheduled report email delivery, and a weekly AI digest of what needs attention. It automates the work and surfaces decisions; you approve the actions that write back to Shopify.
Does automation push changes to Shopify without my approval?
No. Sync of catalog, inventory, and orders runs automatically, but any write you initiate, such as receiving a PO or publishing a product, is confirmed by you. Vendee Pro is confirm-before-write by design.
How does reorder automation work?
Per-SKU reorder rules and demand forecasting generate vendor-grouped draft purchase orders. You review the suggested quantities and confirm with one click, so replenishment is fast without being blind.
Can I schedule reports automatically?
Yes. Report Studio lets you save report views and schedule them for automatic email delivery, so sell-through, dead stock, and OTB reports land in your inbox without anyone running them.
