AI AGENTS & AUTOMATION

Agents do the work.
You keep the final say.

Origine builds AI agents and process automation for ecommerce and service businesses spending hours on customer messages, orders and reporting. You receive tested workflows in your own accounts, with activity logs, agreed approval points and a handover document. Start with the free AI Readiness Check to identify a suitable first process.

02 RULE Shopify, Meta and Google data is pulled
03 AI The week’s changes are explained
04 APPROVAL Sharp drops are flagged to you
05 RESULT Report in your inbox by 8:00 AM

When results drop sharply, the agent does not guess. It flags the change for you.

BRANDING. DIGITAL. AI.

8 YEARS IN ECOMMERCE

We know ecommerce from the inside.
We build flows around it.

We have run our own brand, Yukon Bags, for 8 years across Shopify, Etsy and B2B sales. Along the way we learned where orders, shipping and customer messages take up time. The flows we build start from that experience.

Start with Discovery.
Grow with agents.

Most businesses start with Discovery, go live with a first agent, then expand. Prices shown are starting prices, before tax.

After Discovery, pricing becomes a single fixed written quote. Model, platform and WhatsApp fees are paid from your own accounts.

AGENT OR AUTOMATION

Judgment calls go to agents.
Fixed rules go to automation.

Not every task needs an agent. In the AI Readiness Discovery we decide together which work suits an agent and which suits a simpler automation. Most agents run on top of an automation.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers.

01

What is the difference between AI automation and an AI agent?

Automation is for work whose steps are the same every time and whose rule can be written down; AI only steps in where a rule cannot decide. An agent is for work where every case is a little different and calls for judgment; you set the approval points. Most agents run on top of an automation.

02

How much does it cost to set up AI automation or an AI agent?

Starting prices before tax: AI Readiness Discovery $600 (credited to your build), process automation from $1,200, a single agent from $3,000. Ongoing support: agent operations from $500/month, automation care $200/month. After Discovery, pricing becomes a single fixed written quote.

03

Are model, WhatsApp and platform fees included?

No. Those fees are paid from your own accounts, directly to each provider. Because the accounts are in your name, you see the usage and the invoices.

04

How long does setup take?

A single process automation takes 1–2 weeks; a single agent takes 3–4 weeks. The path: free AI Readiness Check (about 4 minutes), AI Readiness Discovery (5 business days), flow design (2 days), build and testing (1–4 weeks), go-live (1 week).

05

Will an agent message my customers on its own?

Any step that touches customers, money or campaigns goes through your approval. In a customer message agent, for example, replies about returns and complaints go through you. The agent leaves anything it is unsure about to you and logs every step.

06

Who owns the accounts, the data and the system?

You do. Everything is built in your own accounts. You receive a handover document at delivery, and our access is closed when the work is done.

07

Which tools do you work with?

Flows connect to the tools you already use, such as Shopify, Etsy, Google Ads, Meta, GA4, WhatsApp, web forms, CRMs and accounting software. We confirm which tools can be connected during the AI Readiness Discovery.

08

Who is this service for?

Ecommerce and service businesses whose repetitive work takes hours each week. We have run our own brand, Yukon Bags, for 8 years across Shopify, Etsy and B2B sales, and our flows start from what we learned about orders, shipping and customer messages.

09

Do you guarantee results or savings?

No. Time and cost savings depend on your processes and your data. We report runs, errors and costs at delivery and in the monthly report, and we make decisions with you based on those numbers.

10

What is the AI Readiness Check, and is it free?

It is free. It takes five short steps and about four minutes, with no sign-up, and your answers stay in your browser. At the end you get a report with your readiness score, the hours you could hand off each week and your first three automation opportunities.
