Automations I've built

Each one started as a task someone was doing by hand every week. Here's what it does, step by step, and what it runs on.

Demo in progress

Reorder and dead-stock alerts

Knowing what to reorder means digging through sales reports. Knowing what isn't selling usually means noticing too late.

  • Shopify
  • Make
  • Claude
  • Google Sheets

Walkthrough video coming soon

  1. Sales and stock levels sync nightlyPulled from the shop's Shopify store.
  2. Each item is checked against its reorder pointLow sellers that haven't moved in weeks get flagged too.
  3. Claude writes the summaryWhat to reorder, how many, and which pieces to mark down or feature.
  4. The owner gets one short reportLogged to a sheet, ready to approve before anything is ordered.

Researched, fact-checked outreach

Personal emails get replies, but writing them one at a time doesn't scale — and AI-written ones can get details wrong.

  • Airtable
  • Make
  • Claude
  • Gmail
  1. New prospects land in Airtable each weekOnly publicly listed business contacts.
  2. Claude drafts a short, personal noteBased on what the shop actually sells.
  3. A separate check verifies every detailDrafts that don't pass are held back, not sent.
  4. Approved emails go out in small, paced batchesBounces and opt-outs are suppressed right away.

Client texts over iMessage

Boutique clients answer texts far more than emails, but sending them from a personal phone doesn't connect to anything.

  • Make
  • LoopMessage
  • Claude
  1. Something happens worth telling a clientA new arrival, a restock, an order ready for pickup.
  2. Claude writes the message in the shop's voiceShort, personal, no marketing filler.
  3. It's sent as a real iMessageThrough LoopMessage, from a dedicated business number.
Running

Inbox to text-message briefing

Important emails get buried, and checking the inbox all day is its own job.

  • Gmail
  • Make
  • Claude
  • SMS / WhatsApp
  1. New mail is read as it arrivesNewsletters and noise are skipped.
  2. Claude decides what mattersAnd sums it up in a line or two.
  3. A short text lands on your phoneBy SMS or WhatsApp, so nothing urgent waits.

How a build works

No new software to learn. The automation lives inside what you already use.

  1. Find the task

    We talk through your week and pick the one repetitive job you'd most like gone.

  2. Build it on your tools

    Shopify, Square, Gmail, Sheets — I connect what you have and test it with real data.

  3. Hand it over

    You get a short walkthrough and plain-language notes, and I stay on to adjust it.

What's the task you'd most like to stop doing?

Tell me about it. If it's repetitive, there's a good chance it can run without you.
