What your customer sends
purchase-order-4471.pdf
Their layout, their part numbers, plus 98 more lines
What lands in Shopify
Shopify draft order
Every line matched, that account's contract pricing applied
It is literally reading my PDF and uploading a 100+ item order in under 4 minutes. This just made us 10x more efficient.
Companies are looking for the magic AI wand. For me, LevelOps is the first easy step into AI, relevant, and you see the impact the day you install it.
Such a timesaver and super easy to implement. We process purchase orders via EDI, PDF, Excel or email format, and the team always listens to customer feedback.
Exactly what we needed to save manual processing time entering emailed purchase orders into our B2B store. Awesome app and awesome team.
The day
Same inbox. Same 40-line PDFs. The difference is whether a person retypes them.

Who types
Order entry lead
They keep customers happy between calls. 20 to 40 percent of the day is retyping. Formats live in their head. A departure or a peak breaks the desk. If checking a draft is slower than typing, they go back to the keyboard.
The match
The valuable half is matching and pricing, not that a part number became a product name.
01
What they wrote
washer, nylon 12mm
What lands
Nylon washer 12mm
No SKU on the PO. Matched from the description, that account's contract price applied.
02
What they wrote
ACME-4471-SS
What lands
Hex bolt M12x60
Customer part number, not your SKU. Catalog match, quantity 480.
03
What they wrote
NG-2201-B
What lands
Zinc lock nut M12
Pack versus unit is the usual trap. Priced from your Shopify B2B list, not the number printed on their PDF.

Based on 6 minutes down to about 1 minute per order, and an error rate of 3% by hand against 0.5% with a human approving every draft. An erroneous order costs about $250 to unwind. Your numbers, our measured ratios.
Where we fit
Order intake is its own layer. LevelOps sits beside what you already run instead of replacing it.
How it works
LevelOps sits between your customers and Shopify. It captures what they send, validates it against your catalog and each account's rules, then writes a clean draft order.
01 · Capture
Forward incoming orders to a dedicated address. LevelOps reads whatever your customers send.
02 · Validate
Identify the account the order came from, match each line to your catalog, and apply the pricing that account expects.
03 · Route
Write a validated draft order into your system of record, ready for one-click review and send.
Most order automation needs a master-data integration and a rules build before you see anything. LevelOps produces matched, priced orders on the data you already have.
Integrations
LevelOps is Shopify-native and writes clean orders into the tools distributors already run on. When a customer changes their order format next month, nothing breaks.
