Company mission
To make automation accessible to all business owners, since eliminating repetitive work is the key to freeing more people to be creatives, innovators, & exceptional employees.
Our take
Automation is great at two things in particular: eliminating repetitive drudge work, and ensuring nothing is missed. Both cover a lot of ground in the field of eCommerce, where monitoring and responding to customer behaviour is the name of the game. Alloy Automation is a platform helping automate precisely this.
The Alloy platform allows companies to link together apps to create automated workflows. A Shopify payment, for example, could trigger the sending of a customer text message, a discount code, and a team slack notification. These templates can be custom-built, or selected from a marketplace of prefabricated ones.
The automation and eCommerce marketplaces are both hotly competitive and cluttered, which means Alloy’s model is a smart one. It doesn’t need to beat the field; it just needs to integrate with the rapidly growing number of SaaS platforms and tools eCommerce companies are leaning on. Alloy has been rewarded with strong funding to rapidly upscale this concept - and there’s a lot of market demand to grow into.
