CASE STUDY · AUTOMATION
Email-to-database workflow for an e-commerce client
Order confirmations, supplier emails and inquiries are read on arrival and written straight into the client's database. The team only sees the exceptions.
THE PROBLEM
Hours of copy-paste, every day, per seat.
Order confirmations, supplier emails and customer inquiries came in daily across several inboxes. Each one meant someone reading it, pulling out the fields and pasting them into the right record. Routine, error-prone work that grew with sales.
WHAT IT DOES
Parse the email, write the row, flag the edge cases.
A workflow that watches incoming mail, extracts the fields, places each in the client's database, and flags only what doesn't fit for a person to review.
- Parses incoming emails on arrival across multiple inboxes.
- Extracts structured fields using AI: order details, contact data, product references, line items.
- Maps each field to the correct destination in the client's database.
- Flags only the exceptions for human review (mismatches, edge cases, missing data).
- Built-in retry, logging, and error tracking.
