AI agents and AI adoption

AI agents for farms and food makers

AI is useful to a two-person food business in specific places: product descriptions from your notes, customer questions overnight, invoices into the books, the newsletter draft, the weekly numbers. We set up the ones that earn their keep.

Built for farmers and makers. Set up for you, on the tools you already use.

Newsletter agent
Draft Thursday's newsletter from what is back in stock.
Draft ready. Three products are back: aged gouda, wildflower honey and hot honey. The story is how the washed rind gets its color, from your notes.
Nothing is sent until you approve. Schedule it for Thursday 7am?
Yours is built around your business and your rules.

How it works

  1. Tell us what you make

    What you make and what you use now. A spreadsheet and a Square account is a fine answer.

  2. Get a short plan

    Keep this, replace that, connect these, and the cost.

  3. We set it up

    Setup and migration done for you. You approve before anything goes live.

  4. Run it or hand it off

    Take it from there yourself or keep us on for the upkeep.

A good fit if

  • You have tried ChatGPT and it wrote marketing fluff
  • You want product pages written from your maker notes, not invented
  • You want a weekly report to appear without doing it

Questions

How can a small food business use AI?

For the recurring work that follows a pattern: answering order questions, entering invoices, drafting the newsletter, pulling weekly numbers and writing product copy from your own notes.

Is it safe to let an agent act on its own?

It depends on the task. Reports can run alone. Anything a customer reads or that moves money gets an approval step, and complaints go to a person.

Which AI tools do you use?

Agents are built on models from Anthropic, OpenAI or Google, and on the AI already inside tools like Shopify and Klaviyo. We choose by the job.
