Situation
Every supplier has a different ordering website.
Purchasing means working through different supplier websites, finding products, checking pack sizes and entering quantities. The team repeats those steps for each order before reviewing the total and confirming the purchase.
Challenge
Automated ordering still needs control over the final purchase.
Supplier pages vary, stock and prices change, and similar listings can represent different pack sizes. The agent needs to check the exact items and commercial details, handle unexpected page states and stop before purchase until a person approves the final order in Slack.
What we built
An agent that prepares the order and asks in Slack.
We built a computer-use agent that operates supplier websites using the team's order requirements. It searches for products, checks variants and pack sizes, enters quantities and prepares the cart and delivery details.
It then sends a reviewable order summary to Slack, including the supplier, items, quantities, price, delivery charges and any issues. A designated person can approve, reject or request changes. Only after approval does the agent submit the order, check the supplier confirmation and report the outcome back to Slack.

Evals and guardrails
Verify every cart. Approve every purchase.
Ordering evals
Test supplier-site tasks for correct products, pack sizes, quantities and totals. Include changed page layouts and unavailable stock.
Approval evals
Test rejected orders, cart edits, timeouts and unclear submission results. Check that purchases match approval and are never duplicated.
Guardrails
Tie Slack approval to the exact cart and require fresh approval after changes. Check order history before retrying an uncertain purchase.
