Tell every customer where their order is — before they ask.
ChatGPT watches your orders and shipments, detects exceptions (delays, damage, mis-routes) the moment they fire, and sends the customer a status update with a real ETA and your remediation.

Agent draft · in your tone

How does OpenAI (ChatGPT) work for Order Tracking automation?
OpenAI (ChatGPT) works for Order Tracking automation by powering a DeskFerry agent that runs the workflow end-to-end inside your existing tools — no code, no custom build.
- 01
Trigger fires
The agent connects to OpenAI (ChatGPT) alongside the other apps your team already uses, watches for the triggers that matter for Order Tracking, and takes the next step on its own while keeping a complete audit trail for review.
- 02
Read the inbound ticket and classify the topic
AI sends shipping updates before customers ask, significantly reducing "where is my order" inquiries.
- 03
Pull the customer's plan, history, and SLA
Teams typically see deflected from support queue once the agent is in production.
- 04
Draft a response in your support team's voice
You stay in control: every action is logged, confidence thresholds are configurable, and anything ambiguous is queued for a human instead of being silently auto-completed.
- 05
You approve
Anything under your confidence bar waits for a human.
How you tell it what to do
Built in plain English.
You write the rule the way you'd describe it to a teammate. The agent reads the rule, breaks it into the actions it'll take, and confirms the apps it'll touch — before it does anything.

Human in the loop
Approve before it sends.
Every draft lands in a review queue. You approve, edit, or reject — the agent never acts on its own unless you explicitly turn that on for a workflow you trust.
Governance
Every action, with the reasoning attached.
Each step the agent takes is logged with what it did, why it did it, and which app it touched. Audit-ready, so security and compliance can sign off without backfilling.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What carriers does it integrate with?
UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL, OnTrac, and most regional carriers via EasyPost or Shippo. International tracking via 17track for multi-leg shipments.
What counts as an exception worth notifying?
Delays >24 hours past ETA, mis-routes, address verification failures, customs holds, and damage flags. You can tune the thresholds per shipping speed.
Does it propose remediation, or just report?
Proposes. For weather delays it might offer a free upgrade. For mis-routes it can re-issue the shipment. The action set is configurable per scenario.
Can it handle B2B orders with multiple stakeholders?
Yes. It identifies the right contact (receiving lead, AP, end user) and tailors the message accordingly. Multi-pallet, multi-leg, and split shipments are tracked as one logical order.
What ecommerce platforms does it work with?
Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, and direct via Stripe Checkout. For ERPs (NetSuite, SAP), we read order state from the ERP directly.
