The challenge

The problem

E-commerce operations are relentless. Every day brings new orders to fulfill, customer questions to answer, inventory to check, and metrics to review. A single missed follow-up can cost a sale. A stockout can tank your ad ROI. And you're doing it all yourself because hiring costs more than your monthly profit.

The solution

How Kodo solves it

Kodo connects to your Shopify, WooCommerce, Stripe, Gmail, and marketing tools. It handles customer inquiries, sends order updates, monitors inventory, recovers failed payments, and delivers daily performance reports — 24/7, across Slack, Telegram, and webchat.
