A shop known for world-class builds was spending its most experienced people on clerical work: invoices arriving from email, Amazon, and Shopmonkey re-keyed by hand into QuickBooks; parts hunted across supplier sites for hours; a parts side-business on eBay bottlenecked on the sheer labor of photographing, describing, and listing.
Three agents took the typing. The invoicing agent ingests invoices from email, Amazon, and Shopmonkey, extracts the data, matches each document to its project, and pushes clean entries into QuickBooks. The procurement agent watches the company chat for parts requests, searches supplier networks, compares prices, and reports options back. The eBay agent pulls photos from a designated folder, generates titles and descriptions, uploads listings, and manages pricing, relisting, and buyer inquiries.
The deployment runs on local-first hardware at the shop and closed with training and twelve months of care.

“We build cars — that's the work we love. The paperwork behind it was eating the shop: invoices from three different systems, hours hunting parts, an eBay backlog nobody had time to touch. Now the invoices land in QuickBooks on their own, the parts search starts the moment someone asks in our chat, and the listings go up without us. My guys are back on the cars.”
