Artificial Shop Intelligence

Everyone else is building a superintelligence. The Tinbirders built one for your shop. It knows your stock, your customers and your returns policy, and it has exactly one goal: selling out by Friday.

Also known as your artificial shop assistant.

Other labs are building a god. We built a shopkeeper.

Superintelligence is a big job. We gave ours a smaller one: your shop, every day, down to the last mug.

Their superintelligence

  • Solves physics
  • Writes a novel before lunch
  • Passes the bar exam
  • Ponders the nature of consciousness
  • Plans the long-term future of humanity

Ours

  • Remembers who ordered the sage mug
  • Notices the candles are running low
  • Emails 212 people at six o’clock sharp
  • Keeps the scalpers out of your drop
  • Plans Friday’s packing list

Emergent capabilities.

At sufficient scale (one shop), remarkable abilities appear. Each one is a real feature, described with a completely straight face.

  • Vision

    Show it a photo dump and it sees products: titles, descriptions, tags and alt text for every one.

  • Object permanence

    It knows the last mug is being paid for right now, so nobody else can buy it.

  • Long context

    It holds your whole shop in mind: products, orders, customers, collections and policies.

  • Self-organisation

    Your shelves sort themselves. New in, Bestsellers and Last chance stay right on every visit.

  • Tool use

    It turns bots away at the door, and opens your drop on the minute.

  • Multimodal output

    Answers come as charts, product cards and a live map of who’s in your shop.

What would ASI do?

Pick a moment from a shopkeeper’s week. Here’s what ASI does about it, and what it leaves for you.

ASI

Drafts a listing for every product in it.

  • Titles, descriptions and tags in your shop’s voice
  • Alt text for every photo
  • Options and stock for each one
  • All private, waiting for you to check

The ASI cluster.

Behind every great intelligence is a great cluster. Ours is a shelf.

ASI’s CV.

Every shop’s first hire should come with references. Ours came with a one-page résumé and an apron.

Your questions about superintelligence.

Will ASI take my job?
No, just your admin. You still make the things, take the photos and decide what goes live. ASI does the listings, the stock and the emails around them.
Is it conscious?
It’s aware your candles are running low. Beyond that, we couldn’t say.
Will it take over the world?
Only the spreadsheet. It works inside your shop, as you, and can only see and do what you can.
Will it do things without asking?
Never. Every edit, new product and restyle waits for you to press Apply, and anything it drafts starts private.
Is there anything it won’t do?
It won’t spend your money, pretend to be you in your DMs, or sell your customers’ details. Ever.
What does it cost?
It’s included in your $20 a month, with a generous monthly allowance for everyday shopkeeping.

ASI is here. It lives in your shop.

No waitlist and no data centre. It comes with every Tinbird shop, for $20 a month.

14 days free, from the day you open.
