Agents that do the work, inside your limits.

Connect your own agents to answer customers, keep products in order and explain your numbers. Each one acts for a named person on your team. You decide what it may do alone, and everything bigger waits for you with the reason and the evidence.

Product pictures on this page show an example store’s admin, with sample orders and sample figures.

Three roles for your agents

Three roles. Three clear jobs.

Switch on one, two or all three. Everything in Sepal works without them too.

Support agent

Answers customers about their orders, and handles the small fixes before anything ships.

Does alone, within limits Answers order and delivery questionsFixes an address before it shipsPrepares refunds, with evidence Asks you first Every refundAnything outside your limits

Merchandising agent

Keeps products, collections and promotions in order, so the store always looks looked after.

Does alone, within limits Makes codes up to your limitChanges prices within your limitKeeps collections in order Asks you first Codes or prices over your limitsAnything marked ask first

Reporting agent

Reads your reports and explains them in plain words: what changed, and the likely reason.

Does alone, within limits Answers questions about salesExplains a jump or a dipPrepares a morning summary Asks you first Nothing: it explains, you decide
Limits you set

You write the rules. It keeps them.

For each agent, choose the person it acts for and how far it may go on its own. Inside the line, it just does the work. One step over, and it becomes a request in Approvals.

A real person behind every agent. Choose who it acts for, so its work shows under that person’s name in Activity.Limits in numbers, not in prose. Percentages, uses and countries, so there is no doubt about where the line is.Switch off in one click. An agent that is off does nothing until you switch it back on.

Approvals

Decide in one read.

Refunds, and anything over a limit, arrive with why the agent wants it, exactly what will change, and the evidence it used.

1Who asks, and for whomThe agent, the person it acts on behalf of, and the limit that made it ask.
2The reasonIn plain words, the way a colleague would explain it to you.
3Before and afterEvery value that will change, side by side. Nothing else changes.
4The evidenceThe message, the photo, the stock level: what the agent looked at.
An example store’s admin, with a sample order and a sample message.
Reject, and it learns

Say no once. It remembers why.

A rejection comes with a reason in your own words. The agent takes it into account the next time a similar case comes up.

Activity

Every change, with who it was for.

Activity lists what people, agents and connected systems changed. When an agent made the change, it says which person it acted on behalf of, and whether it was inside a limit or approved.

Never, whatever the limits

Money and access stay with people.

These are not settings. No limit you set can open them up, and no agent can ask for them in Approvals.

Where money goes

Payment accounts and payouts can only be changed by the owner.

Who is on your team

Agents never add staff, remove anyone or change a role.

Connections

Switching on a connection, or another agent, is a person’s decision.

Keys

Agents can never see, copy or change a key.

Privacy

Private by default.

Names and emails hidden, unless you allow

By default an agent works on the order, not the person. Allow names and emails per agent when the job really needs them.

A day with agents

Busywork handled. Decisions kept.

A sample day at a small store with an agent connected for each of the three roles. Purple is an agent, green is a person.

  1. 7:30 AgentA summary is waitingOvernight orders, what is not shipped yet, and the two requests that need someone.
  2. 8:02 AgentA refund is preparedOrder 3455: reason, before and after, the photo and the stock check, all in one request.
  3. 9:04 PersonDana approves itOne click. The refund goes out and the customer gets the refund email.
  4. 11:40 PersonAlex asks about TuesdayIn Alex’s own assistant, the reporting agent points to code BRUSH15 and the restock.
  5. 14:15 AgentA price waits for a yesThe Merchandising agent wants 14% off a slow seller. Your limit is 10%, so it asks.
  6. 17:30 PersonAlex says no, with a reason“Try a bundle before cutting the price.” The agent takes that into the next idea.

Questions about agents

More on security and connecting an agent.

Do I have to use agents?

No. Every part of Sepal works without them. Switch an agent on when you want it, and off again at any time.

Which AI powers the agents?

Sepal runs no AI of its own. Agents connect through MCP, the open standard many AI assistants use, and you make each connection in Settings.

What can an agent do without asking?

Only what its limits allow, for example codes up to 30% and 100 uses, or price changes up to 10%. Refunds, and anything over a limit, always become a request in Approvals.

Can an agent move money or give someone access?

No. Agents never change where money goes, add staff, switch on a connection, or see a key. No setting changes that.

How does an agent learn from a rejection?

When you reject a request, you give a reason in your own words. The agent takes that reason into account the next time a similar case comes up.

Can agents see my customers’ names and emails?

Not unless you allow it, per agent. By default they see the order, not the person.
