The problem it solves

New customers pile up in Shopify, but if your team also runs on Odoo for contacts and operations, someone has to manually re-enter each one. That extra step gets skipped when things get busy, so your contact records fall behind.

Who it fits

E-commerce businesses using Shopify for sales and Odoo for contacts or operations.

How it works

  1. A new customer signing up in Shopify triggers the system
  2. Odoo is checked for an existing contact with the same email
  3. If a match exists, nothing further happens
  4. If no match exists, a new contact is created in Odoo with the customer's name, email, phone, and address
What you get

Customer records that match across systems

Every new Shopify customer is automatically added to Odoo as a contact, with duplicates checked so your records stay clean.

What you get

An up-to-date Odoo contact list that mirrors your Shopify customers with no duplicates.

What you need

A Shopify store and an Odoo 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.
