AI for boutiques · vintage · independent retail
Keep the shop moving.
New arrivals need photos, listings, posts, and answers while customers are already walking through the door. I build the small layer that turns product information into ready-to-review work and shows the owner what needs attention next.
Where the week actually goes
Work you should not have to keep catching.
The useful starting point is not “use AI.” It is recognizing the moment that repeatedly costs time, money, or a customer.
Routine questions about pickup, shipping, sizing, and order status fill the inbox.
A fast-moving size or product sells out before anyone notices the restock signal.
Returns, special orders, and customer promises get tracked in texts and memory.
A likely first proof
New arrivals, ready to publish
The owner enters the real product facts and approved photos once. The system prepares a product listing, social caption, and email block in the shop's voice — with every material, size, price, and availability claim held for review.
After the first win
Other leaks worth plugging.
Start narrow enough to prove the value. Expand only when the first system has earned the right to connect more of the operation.
Routine order-question drafts
Current store policies and order information become a clear response draft for pickup, shipping, sizing, and status questions without inventing stock or delivery promises.
Restock attention list
Sales and inventory data can surface low-stock variants and fast movers against the shop's own thresholds so a buyer decides what to reorder.
Special-order follow-through
A special request, owner, due date, deposit status, and next customer update stay visible until the order is closed or escalated.
Start with one AI tool and one real task.
A $295 one-on-one setup session can configure the right tool, test one useful workflow, and leave reusable instructions in accounts you control. Team working sessions start at $950.
Fair questions
What owners ask before we talk.
Direct answers, including the parts that matter after the build is finished.
Can it connect to our store and online shop?
Where supported and approved, a build can use systems such as Shopify, Square, Lightspeed, email, forms, or spreadsheets through APIs, integrations, and controlled exports. The shop keeps its existing storefront and accounts.
What does the owner still approve?
Product claims, prices, discounts, refunds, returns, customer promises, and purchase orders stay with a person. The automation prepares content, answers, and attention lists from the shop's current information.
What does a useful first build cost?
For a full custom automation, plan on a minimum project budget of $2,500. A narrow first build can often run in about a week; connected systems take longer and may move into five figures. Smaller focused help can cost less. Each custom phase has a written scope, fixed price, completion checks, and payment schedule agreed before work begins.
START WITH THE BOTTLENECK
Fifteen minutes. Straight answers. No pitch.
Tell me where the week goes. I will tell you what is worth fixing—and sometimes the honest answer is nothing yet.
