That was my own shop, in July 2026. The uncomfortable question is how long it would go unnoticed in yours.
How I prevent it now →It runs. As long as you are there.
You already automate things, you build yourself prompts and skills, and plenty of it works. Just only while you are sitting next to it, nudging. The moment you step away, it stops.
Three automations started. Two of them only run if you step in halfway through.
The prompt that genuinely works lives in your head and in a chat log.
Onboarding someone takes longer than doing it yourself. So you do it yourself.
You are not short of ideas or tools. You are short of the layer underneath.

It took me 26 days to notice.
I'm Jurek. In July I touched a shipping rule in my own store and typed a 99 into a field that should have stayed empty. Above 99.01 € no customer was shown a shipping option at all. Ordering was simply impossible.
I found out 26 days later. No error, no red field, and when I asked the API it cheerfully confirmed the setting I wanted to see. It reported what was configured, not what the customer got. Thirteen carts worth 1,914 € were left sitting there. Since then every process I build gets a watcher that checks the result rather than the setting. That is what people actually pay me for: not for something to be built, but for someone to notice when it stops.
This is what one looks like.
An order sets it off. A tightly instructed AI agent pulls the facts from your database, updates three systems, and asks in Slack before anything reaches the customer. Built in an afternoon, running on its own ever since.
The process does not end when something is sent, it ends with you. Anything that reaches a customer passes a human first. That is the difference between automation and losing control.
How I build this →Projects that run.
No invented quotes. Real businesses, real operations, real results, check them yourself.

My own productPress-kit generator. The same chain carries a product, not just a business.
Let's talk about one process for 25 minutes.
Free, no strings, by video or in person in Berlin. You get an honest assessment at the end, including if that assessment is that you do not need anyone for this.
My commitment: if a handed-over process does not run the way we described it beforehand, I rebuild it until it does. No new invoice, and no argument about whose fault it was.
