The day

One Monday. Two ways it goes.

Same inbox. Same 40-line PDFs. The difference is whether a person retypes them.

Without LevelOps

  1. 01

    Inbox fills with purchase order emails

  2. 02

    Retype every line into Shopify

  3. 03

    Guess the SKU when the customer wrote a description

  4. 04

    Redo the orders that went out wrong

With LevelOps

  1. 01

    Forward the email to your LevelOps address

  2. 02

    A priced draft order appears in Shopify

  3. 03

    Approve the lines that were flagged

  4. 04

    Send. The source PDF stays attached

The person who actually types the orders

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

Three lines. This is the product.

The valuable half is matching and pricing, not that a part number became a product name.

  1. 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.

  2. 02

    What they wrote

    ACME-4471-SS

    What lands

    Hex bolt M12x60

    Customer part number, not your SKU. Catalog match, quantity 480.

  3. 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.

Where we fit

EDI, a portal, and the orders that still arrive by email

Order intake is its own layer. LevelOps sits beside what you already run instead of replacing it.

EDI

Covers
The retailers who mandate it, with the volume to justify the setup and the fees.
Leaves behind
Everyone too small to onboard, and the documents your EDI platform emits but nobody imports.

A buyer portal

Covers
The accounts willing to log in and rekey their own order into your catalog.
Leaves behind
The accounts that will not adopt it, which is most of the long tail, and they keep emailing.

PDF to Order

Covers
Whatever arrives in the inbox. PDF, email body, Excel, CSV, and the documents your EDI platform produces.
Picks up
Turns them into Shopify draft orders with your catalog pricing applied, and a human approves before send.

How it works

One flow, from the inbox to your system of record

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

From every channel

Forward incoming orders to a dedicated address. LevelOps reads whatever your customers send.

  • PDF, email body and attachments, Excel, CSV
  • The order documents your EDI platform produces
  • No template to build or maintain

02 · Validate

Against your rules

Identify the account the order came from, match each line to your catalog, and apply the pricing that account expects.

  • Customer and company account detected automatically
  • Description-based matching when there is no SKU
  • Native Shopify B2B catalog pricing and account rules
  • Exceptions flagged for a human

03 · Route

Into your system

Write a validated draft order into your system of record, ready for one-click review and send.

  • Shopify-native draft orders
  • ERP output for Katana, MRPeasy and Odoo
  • Human in the loop, and it learns from corrections

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

Runs inside the systems you already use

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.

FAQ

Questions your ops team will ask first

What does PDF to Order actually do?

PDF to Order reads emailed purchase orders and creates Shopify draft orders automatically, with the source file attached for human review.

Do my customers have to change anything?

No. Your customers keep ordering by email the way they already do. You forward the order, and LevelOps does the rest.

What file formats does it read?

It reads PDF, Excel, CSV, Word, and the email body itself, then matches products and customers against your Shopify setup.

How accurate is it?

The measured public framing is 0.5% vs 3% for manual entry, which is 6x fewer errors, with a human keeping the last word.

Does it replace our EDI?

No. It complements EDI by handling the long tail of purchase orders that still arrive by email.

What does it cost?

Your first 5 successful orders are free. After that, pricing starts at $50 one-time for 15 orders, then monthly plans from $100 to $250.

Stop typing orders by hand

Forward one purchase order and watch it come back as a clean, priced Shopify draft order. Your first five orders are free.
