ChannelApe MCP. Manage orders, inventory, and suppliers via natural chat.

You connect your e-commerce back office to any AI agent and manage everything from inventory counts to order fulfillment without getting lost in a dashboard. You don't need to juggle multiple sites; you just talk to your client, and it handles the messy data pull for ChannelApe.

When you’re running operations, you can start by checking out your core business profile settings and account information using get_ape_business_info. That gives you a quick overview of where things stand with the main platform. You also need to know what channels are even live—you ask for it using list_ape_channels, and it spits out a list of every connected sales channel, telling you if Shopify's running fine or if Amazon's got some snags.

Inventory management is where this thing really shines. You can ask the agent to check stock levels across multiple distribution centers at once using list_ape_inventory. It doesn't just give you a total number; it breaks down exactly how many units of Product X are sitting in Warehouse A versus Warehouse B, which is huge when you gotta plan shipments fast.

If you need to know more about the product itself—like dimensions or material composition—you run get_ape_product_details and feed it a specific SKU or item name. For an even broader look at what you carry, you can list every available product in your entire catalog using list_ape_products, which gives you all that basic SKU info to start tracking.

When orders come in—and they always do—you don't have time for guesswork. You first run list_ape_orders to pull a rundown of the most recent order IDs, letting you gauge your daily volume. Then, you pick one ID and use get_ape_order_details. This pulls everything: who bought it, what specific line items they ordered, how much it cost, and where it's supposed to go next.

It’s a full audit of that single order right in front of you. If you need to know the history or volume trends, listing those recent orders is your starting point.

Managing suppliers keeps everything running smooth too. You run list_ape_suppliers and get an overview of every vendor and logistics partner integrated into your system—it's a quick way to keep tabs on who’s supplying what. For general oversight, you can also pull a complete list of all available products through list_ape_products, which ensures that if you gotta check the catalog status before listing something new, you have the full picture.

Seriously, this toolset lets you audit your whole operation in plain English. You're not wading through spreadsheets or clicking seven different tabs across four different websites; you just talk to your agent and it pulls all the data for you. It’s like having a dedicated ops guy who knows exactly where every piece of stock is and what status every single order has.
