ChatGPT

General-purpose agents vs. an ecommerce operating workspace

Bustly

An AI workspace for DTC teams

Bustly packages experts and Skills around ecommerce work. The same workspace manages members, business groups and application access, so professional methods can be used within the team’s actual responsibilities.

Prepared DTC experts and Skills
Separate workspace and application permissions
Persistent intelligence and shared team methods

Why Bustly is different

Professional methods, team responsibilities and account access are part of the same product.

Start with an ecommerce specialist

ChatGPT lets teams create workspace agents. Bustly provides experts with responsibilities and methods designed for DTC operations.

Use prepared operating methods

Ad audits, product content and customer analysis have predefined steps and checks, ready for the relevant expert to use.

Manage people and business groups

Both products offer workspace administration. Bustly combines role-based management with business groups for brand and regional teams.

Separate management from data access

Bustly separates the permission to manage a workspace from the permission to access a specific store or ad account.

Where Bustly does more for DTC

01 · DTC experts

Specialist agents for the work of running a brand.

Customer acquisition, product launch, customer retention and research experts each bring a professional framework. They break down the business goal, choose relevant Skills and use authorized tools. The expert defines how to approach the work, while your task provides the brand, market and desired result.

A DTC expert combines professional methods, Skills and authorized tools

02 · Prebuilt Skills

Ecommerce Skills with inputs, steps and checks.

A Skill is a reusable working method. Bustly’s prebuilt library includes methods for advertising, product content, customer analysis and store operations. Experts select the appropriate Skills, so each new task can build on an established process instead of requiring a full set of instructions.

Prebuilt ecommerce Skills with inputs, methods and verification steps

03 · Workspace permissions

One workspace, with clear responsibilities for every member.

Invite members, assign roles and organize business groups for the teams you run. Workspace permissions control responsibilities such as member management, integrations, shared Skills and audit access. Members keep their own tasks while the organization manages shared resources.

Workspace members, role permissions and separate business groups

04 · Application permissions

Control which accounts an expert can read or change.

Assign a connection or supported resource to a business group, then set each member’s read or action access. These grants determine the business accounts available to that member’s expert. Access to one advertising account does not stand in for access to every resource under a connection.

Member access to specific accounts: no access, read, or read and write
