Stripe payment to accounting and invoice
Every successful Stripe charge triggers the scenario to create a matching invoice in QuickBooks (or Xero) and email a PDF receipt to the customer — no manual bookkeeping entry.
→Revenue is reconciled in accounting within seconds of payment and customers get a receipt automatically.
Try it yourself
Stripe module (watch payments) → QuickBooks module (create invoice / payment) → Email module (send PDF receipt to customer).

Shopify order delivered → review request email
Three days after a Shopify order is marked fulfilled, Zapier sends the customer a personalised review-request email via Gmail, including the product name and a link to the review page.
→Review volume increases without any manual follow-up effort from the shop owner.
Add a Shopify webhook handler to an existing Flask app
Aider adds an HMAC-verified `/webhooks/shopify` POST route to an existing Flask app, persists the event payload to the database, and triggers an order-confirmation email — matching the repo's existing patterns for route layout and database models.
→Order events from Shopify flow into the app's database automatically; the shop owner no longer manually syncs orders.
Try it yourself
Run `aider app/routes/webhooks.py app/models/order.py`: "Add a Shopify orders/paid webhook handler. Verify the HMAC signature using SHOPIFY_SECRET. Save the order to the Order model. Send a confirmation email via the existing mailer."

Batch-classify customer feedback without an API bill
A CSV of hundreds of survey responses is fed row-by-row to a local Mistral model through the Ollama API; each response gets a category label (positive / negative / feature-request / bug) written back to a new column — no cloud API key, no token costs.
→Thousands of rows classified overnight on a laptop for free, with no data ever leaving the machine.
Try it yourself
Run `ollama pull mistral`, then iterate the CSV in Python and POST each `response_text` to `localhost:11434/api/generate` asking for a single category label; write labels back to the DataFrame.
