Operators start Monday piecing together last week’s sales, stock and fulfilment from different tools. Hops builds the trading brief automatically so the team starts the week with the same numbers.
How it runs: Scheduled. An automation runs every Monday at 7am, posts the brief to the operations Space and saves it as a dated Doc. You can also ask Hops any time.

What it does

  • Compares last week to the week before. Revenue, orders, fulfilment time and stock are shown as week-over-week changes.
  • Reads your store and inventory. Hops pulls sales from Shopify (or your store) and stock from Google Sheets.
  • Flags anything past its threshold. Thresholds come from the metrics list pinned in Space context.
  • Suggests one action each. For example a reorder for low-stock SKUs or a check on a slow warehouse.
  • Keeps the format identical every week. The team always knows where to look.

Ask Hops

Copy a prompt into any chat with Hops, or mention @Hops in a Space.
Example reply:
Trading brief for last week:
  • Revenue up 6% week over week; 2 SKUs sold out.
  • Fulfilment time rose to 2.4 days; one warehouse behind.
  • Reorder suggested for 4 low-stock SKUs.

What you get

  • An answer in chat, in the same thread, whenever you ask.
  • A Monday post in the operations Space at 7am with the brief.
  • A dated brief Doc in Docs of the Space, so you can look back week by week.
