Fully autonomousAutopilot

Set your guardrails once. Peakhour runs the operation.

The store works while you sleep, but you're always the boss. When autopilot is enabled, Peakhour evaluates recommendations against merchant-defined guardrails and, if they pass, executes campaigns without waiting for approval. Every decision is logged. Stop-loss rules protect against underperforming campaigns. You only hear from Peakhour when something needs you.

Six guardrails

Your rules. Peakhour never crosses them.

Set your business boundaries once — max discount, margin floor, protected collections, new arrivals protection, campaign duration, and minimum revenue threshold. Autopilot evaluates every recommendation against all six before executing a single action.

Max discount %

e.g. Never offer more than 25% off

Margin floor

e.g. Never go below 40% margin per unit

Excluded collections

e.g. Never touch New Arrivals or Premium Line

New arrivals protection

e.g. Products < 30 days old are off-limits

Campaign duration limit

e.g. No campaign longer than 72 hours

Revenue threshold

e.g. Only auto-execute if expected recovery > $1,500

How it works

From guardrails to autonomous execution

Five steps. You configure it once. Peakhour runs it every day — and only interrupts you when something genuinely needs your decision.

01

Merchant sets guardrails: max discount, excluded products, revenue threshold

One-time setup in Shopify Admin. Six guardrails that define the boundary within which Peakhour can operate autonomously. These are your rules — Peakhour enforces them on every recommendation it considers executing.

02

Daily recommendation generated from intelligence data

Every morning, Peakhour's intelligence layer runs: dead-stock scores updated, velocity trends recalculated, voice card reviewed. The best recovery opportunity is identified and a campaign recommendation is drafted.

03

Autopilot checks every guardrail — if passed, campaign executes automatically

The recommendation is evaluated against all six guardrails. Discount within limit? Margin floor protected? Not in an excluded collection? Not a new arrival? Revenue threshold met? If every check passes, the campaign executes — discount live in Shopify, Smart Rail updated, campaign running.

04

Stop-loss monitors live campaigns; underperformers get a WhatsApp alert

Every active campaign is monitored in real time. If a campaign accumulates over 100 impressions with fewer than 5 clicks within 24 hours, autopilot triggers stop-loss: a WhatsApp alert arrives with the performance data and options to stop the campaign or continue.

05

Nightly learning loop updates the voice card and recommendation bias

After every campaign — approved manually or executed by autopilot — the outcome feeds the learning model. What discount level performed well at what margin? Which product clusters responded? The recommendation engine adjusts. Autopilot gets more precise over time.

Full feature set

The merchandising operation that runs itself

Eight capabilities — from guardrail enforcement through stop-loss protection to nightly learning. Autonomous, but never a black box.

Merchant-defined guardrails

Set your rules once: max discount %, margin floor, excluded collections, new arrivals protection, campaign duration limit, revenue threshold for auto-execute. Peakhour never crosses them.

Autonomous campaign execution

When a recommendation passes all guardrails, Peakhour executes without waiting for approval — discount created in Shopify, Smart Rail updated, campaign tracked. Zero clicks.

Stop-loss rules

If a campaign scores more than 100 impressions with fewer than 5 clicks after 24 hours, Peakhour sends a WhatsApp alert and waits for your instruction before continuing.

Rollback in one tap

If you want to stop a running campaign, one tap in Shopify Admin or a WhatsApp reply deactivates the discount and Smart Rail immediately — no lag, no support ticket.

Full audit log (append-only)

Every autopilot decision is logged: what triggered it, which guardrails it passed, what it executed, and what the outcome was. Append-only — no decision can be quietly deleted.

Nightly learning loop

Every night, Peakhour updates the voice card and recommendation bias based on what worked and what didn't. Autopilot gets smarter with every cycle — without configuration.

WhatsApp alerts for exceptions only

When autopilot is running well, you hear nothing. You only get a WhatsApp message when something needs a decision — a stop-loss trigger, a guardrail edge case, or a high-value opportunity.

The promise

“The merchandising operation runs itself. You only hear from Peakhour when something needs you.”

The Peakhour autopilot is not an AI that asks you questions and waits for instructions. It's a system that evaluates, decides, executes, and learns — within boundaries you set once. You're not in the loop on routine decisions.

You're in the loop when a campaign underperforms beyond the stop-loss threshold. When a new product category appears that wasn't in your original guardrails. When the recommended discount would push a product below your margin floor. Those are the moments Peakhour sends a WhatsApp message. Not routine execution — only genuine exceptions.
