The problem it solves

Every new order needs a quick confirmation message, but sending them one by one from your phone doesn't scale. Meanwhile your order records live in different places, so it's hard to see what sold and to whom. Small teams end up doing this by hand between everything else on their plate.

Who it fits

A small direct-to-consumer store owner or solopreneur taking orders online.

How it works

  1. A new order is submitted through your store or checkout form
  2. A personalized order confirmation message is sent to the customer on WhatsApp
  3. The order details are added to a Google Sheets CRM
  4. Name, phone, order ID, item, price, and timestamp are all recorded
What you get

Orders confirmed and logged in the same moment

Every order gets an automatic WhatsApp confirmation for your customer and a matching row in your spreadsheet, without you touching either one.

What you get

An instant WhatsApp confirmation for the customer and a running spreadsheet of every order.

What you need

A WhatsApp Business API account and a Google account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
