How do AI agents help operations teams with Price Monitoring?

Anything under your confidence bar waits for a human.
A DeskFerry agent connects to the systems your operations stack already runs on, watches for Price Monitoring triggers, and executes the next step automatically — drafting, routing, updating records, and following up without manual handoffs. Monitor competitor and market prices across thousands of products continuously. Teams typically see within the hour across monitored SKUs once the agent is in production. Setup is no-code, the agent operates inside the rules you define for your operations team, and every decision is logged so leadership can review what was automated and what was escalated.
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 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.
