ERP automation that actually runs the business.
How Bergardi saves 6 hours every week with apichap.
apichap connects Shopify and Odoo into one intelligent automation layer. Orders, invoices, EU OSS tax codes and shipping labels flow end-to-end — no copy & paste, no manual tax adjustments, no late invoicing. Your team gets their week back.
"We save around 6 hours every week, time that used to disappear into routine. Today the whole flow is automated: from AI enabled data management, to order, invoicing and label generation."
When Bergardi started selling online, every Shopify order was typed into Odoo by hand. "In the beginning that was fine," Markus remembers. "But the moment we started growing, it turned into a near full-time job."
Every order had to be entered, every EU OSS tax code adjusted line by line. Invoices were created manually. Shipping labels too. "Honestly — nobody loves that kind of work," Markus says. "And the worst part is, you can't grow out of it. The more you sell, the more you type."
So Markus reached out to apichap with a simple ask: take this off our plate.
"I didn't want yet another middleware tool. I wanted something that just understands our business and runs it in the background. That's exactly what apichap AI toolbox turned out to be."— Markus, CEO Bergardi

How apichap automates the Shopify → Odoo flow
apichap acts as an intelligent automation layer between your storefront, your ERP and the rest of your stack. Every step is observable, auditable and replayable.
- 1
A customer checks out on Shopify
An order is placed in the storefront. No human notification, no spreadsheet, no waiting.
- 2
apichap pushes the order into Odoo
The order, customer, line items and shipping details land in Odoo as a structured sales order in seconds.
- 3
Tax codes and invoices are generated automatically
apichap evaluates the country, product and EU OSS rules, applies the correct tax code, and triggers the Odoo invoice.
- 4
Shipping labels are created and the team is notified
Labels are produced through the existing carrier integration. The team only steps in when something genuinely needs a human.
More than a sync. An AI agentic flow that thinks along.
A traditional integration moves fields from A to B. apichap goes further: every order, document and message is read by an agentic flow that classifies what it is, decides what should happen next, and quietly fills in whatever is missing — before anything ever lands in your ERP.
Classifies every event
Is this a new order, a refund, a B2B quote, a return, a customs document? The agent reads the payload, identifies intent and routes it into the right Odoo workflow — automatically.
Collects missing data
Missing VAT ID, ambiguous address, unknown product mapping, incomplete tax category? The agent enriches from existing sources, applies learned rules, or asks the team in one click — instead of failing silently in the middle of the night.
Acts end-to-end
Once classified and enriched, the agent runs the full chain: create the sales order, apply the right EU OSS tax code, trigger the invoice, generate the shipping label, notify the team only when a human really matters.
"We were buried in copy & paste. Now the whole flow just runs."— Markus, CEO Bergardi
"What surprised me most is that apichap doesn't just move data — it actually understands the order. If something is missing, it figures it out or pings us. We don't babysit it anymore."
What ERP automation actually changes
The hours are the easy story. The bigger story is what your team gets to do instead.
6 hours saved every week
What used to be a near full-time job at Bergardi is now a background process that runs itself.
Zero copy & paste errors
Orders, customers and tax codes are derived from the source of truth — not retyped by a tired human at 6pm.
Happier team, calmer days
Operations people stop doing data entry and start doing the work they were hired for.
Faster, cleaner finance close
Invoices land on the same day as the order. OSS reporting becomes a non-event instead of a fire drill.
