The problem it solves

Every time an order ships, someone has to manually create a delivery task for your driver or courier, copying over the address and order details by hand. That's tedious and easy to get wrong when you're busy fulfilling orders.

Who it fits

E-commerce businesses that use their own delivery drivers or a last-mile courier service.

How it works

  1. New fulfillment is created for a Shopify order
  2. Order and address details are pulled automatically
  3. A delivery task is created in Onfleet
  4. Driver receives the task ready for dispatch
What you get

Orders moving to drivers without manual entry

You get a delivery task created automatically in Onfleet the instant an order ships, ready for your driver to pick up.

What you get

A ready-to-dispatch delivery task in Onfleet for every fulfilled order.

What you need

A Shopify store and an Onfleet 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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
