A person decides the expensive ones
Put an approval step before anything that costs money or reaches a customer. The run waits, and carries on once the person approves or rejects it.
Logistics
Ship more. Type less.
Lodol turns order emails into rows, checks stock every morning and reads shipping documents into data, across Shopify, Shippo, QuickBooks and the inbox your team already works from. Anything unclear is left for a person, never guessed.
Free plan, no credit card. No per-order, per-load or per-document fees.

Fits your operation
Keep your stack. Lose the re-keying.
No TMS to buy and nothing to migrate. Lodol works between the store, the inbox, the carriers and the books you already run, and hands a person anything it can't be sure of.
Orders come in
Order emails and store orders become clean rows, one per item.
Stock gets checked
Every morning: what's low, out or expiring, grouped by supplier.
Parcels go out
Rates across your carriers, labels, tracking and customs forms.
Paperwork gets read
BOLs, PODs and invoices read into data and filed where they belong.
People hear first
Exceptions reach your team, with a customer update drafted for approval.
940 apps and 11,056 actions in all, and a workflow can call any other tool’s API directly, so nothing has to move for Lodol to fit in.
Explore all integrationsReady to run
Start from one that already works.
Built and tested by our team for the work that fills an operations inbox. Open one, connect your apps, and it runs.
HourlyTurn order emails into spreadsheet rows
Reads order emails hourly, has AI pull out each line item, and appends it to your order sheet.
If any value is missing or unclear, the whole email is labelled 'Order needs review' for a person.
Open this workflowDailyDaily inventory monitor for low stock and expiry
Checks your inventory sheet every morning and emails what is out of stock, running low, expired or expiring soon, marking each row.
A row it can't read is listed under 'check these rows', never skipped.
Open this workflow
ManualRead a PDF into structured JSON
Reads one PDF in a single pass and appends everything it found to a Google Doc as JSON, with the low-confidence values listed.
Every value carries a confidence, and anything below your threshold is listed by name and page.
Open this workflow
On new emailFile documents by what they contain
Reads each document that arrives by email and files it by what it says - or leaves it for you when it cannot tell.
Files a document only when it's sure where it goes. Otherwise the email is labelled 'Needs sorting'.
Open this workflow
ManualTurn a multi-page scan into readable text
Runs OCR over a scanned PDF, then writes each page as clean text into a Google Doc you can search, quote and edit.
A transcript, not a summary. A half-read scan is marked INCOMPLETE, never passed off as whole.
Open this workflow
On new emailLog alert emails to a sheet and ping Telegram
Turns each new alert email into a row in your spreadsheet and a Telegram message, and never logs the same alert twice.
Each alert is labelled the moment it's picked up, so nothing is logged or announced twice.

Lodol or a logistics AI platform?
HappyRobot, Augment and Pallet build AI agents for freight and supply chain, and they are good at it. Here is how they compare on what an operations team asks before it buys.
| What a team asks |  Lodol | HappyRobot | Augment | Pallet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Built for | Any operations team, from a two-person brand up | Enterprises; logistics is one of eight industries | Freight brokers, carriers and B2B distributors | Shippers, 3PLs, brokers, forwarders and retail |
| Try it without a sales call | Yes. Free plan, no card | No. Book a demo | No. Get a demo | No. Book a demo |
| PricingAs each company publishes it. | Yes. Free, or from $18 a month, published | No. Not published | Partly. Per completed workflow; rates not published | No. Not published; paid on outcomes |
| Time to go liveAs each company advertises it. | Today, from a template or a sentence to your AI | Not stated | Within a few weeks | 6 weeks |
| Who builds and changes the workflows | You build them yourself, or our team does on Enterprise | Their engineers, with your team | Their team, plus a plain-English builder | Their team, plus an agent builder |
| Shopify, Shippo, AfterShip and QuickBooks | Yes. All four, built in | No. Not advertised | No. Not advertised | Partly. Shopify named |
| A person approves before it acts | Yes. Any step can wait for a person; every run traced | Yes. Human handoff; audits | Yes. Approval paths and an audit trail | Yes. Human review of exceptions |
If check calls to carriers are the heart of your operation, a voice-first specialist is built for that. If your operation runs on Shopify, Shippo, QuickBooks, spreadsheets and an inbox, Lodol fits the way you already work, and you can start today.
From each company’s own website, checked October 2026. Products change; if something here has, tell us and we will correct it.
In control
Nothing ships on a guess.
Any step can wait for a person before it spends money or tells a customer something, and every run leaves a record of what it did.
See exactly what happened
Every run is traced step by step, with timings, so when a customer asks where their order is, the answer starts with what Lodol did and when.
Questions operations teams ask first
The ones an operations team already runs on: Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and Square; Shippo and AfterShip; QuickBooks Online; Gmail, Outlook, Google Sheets, Airtable and Slack, among 940 apps. If a tool you use has an API, a workflow can call it directly.
Yes. An AI step can read PDFs and images using your own model key, and document readers such as Extend and Reducto are in the catalog. The Read a PDF into structured JSON template gives every value a confidence and lists the ones below your threshold by name and page, so a smudged PRO number goes to a person instead of into your records.
No. Free includes 200 runs a month. Builder starts at $18 a month for 2,500 runs and Pro at $120 for 10,000, and every plan has unlimited seats. A run counts once, however many steps it takes. An hourly check of the order inbox is one run each hour, however many orders it finds. AI steps run on your own model key, billed by the provider at its own rates, with nothing added by Lodol.
Not on its own. Voice AI services such as Vapi, Retell AI and ElevenLabs are in the catalog, so a team can build calls into a workflow, but if check calls are the heart of your operation, a voice-first specialist will get you there faster.
No. Ask Claude or ChatGPT for the workflow in plain words and it builds it in Lodol, or build it yourself step by step in the visual editor. Every template on this page can be opened, connected and run as it is. On the Enterprise plan, our team can build your workflows for you.
