Next-generation drop-shipping platform leveraging AI for product curation, dynamic pricing, and end-to-end order automation.
Key Results
Overview
TrendSetter Commerce wanted to scale their drop-shipping business but was limited by manual processes. Product research, supplier management, pricing optimization, and order fulfillment consumed 80+ hours per week. We built an intelligent platform that automates the entire drop-shipping workflow using AI and modern web technologies.
