Connectors
Connects to the tools you already use.
archie pulls your stores, mailboxes, couriers, warehouses and ad accounts into one place, so you stop switching between logins. Every connection uses the same strict, tested contract, so they behave consistently.
Two ways to connect
Full control with the API, or reports with almost no setup with EPI.
For stores, marketplaces and ad platforms you choose how archie connects. You are never locked in: you can switch between the two at any time from the platform's tile in Settings.
API: needed to send instructions
archie connects directly to the platform's own developer interface. It is real-time and complete, and it is the only method that lets archie send instructions back: refunds, reorders and shipping labels from a ticket or order. Ad platforms report live, more detailed spend and performance.
Takes more technical setup, such as keys or tokens from the platform.
EPI: reports with minimum effort
The Email Parsing Interface reads the order and report emails your platform already sends you. Point archie at the right email folder and that is all: no developer setup and no technical knowledge needed. Orders, dashboards and reports fill in automatically, including your past history.
Read-only: it collects data but cannot send refunds or reorders, and ad data is typically less detailed than a live connection.
Start simple, upgrade when you need to. Many people begin with EPI to see their numbers on day one, then switch a channel to the API when they want to act on orders. Nothing is deleted when you switch, and figures are never counted twice. If API details are saved, the API takes charge and email reading steps back.
Online stores & marketplaces Full Store plan
Every sales channel, one dashboard.
Connect your storefront and marketplaces and see orders, revenue and customer behaviour together, whichever channel made the sale. Actions like refunds and reorders can be done from a ticket or order, and need an API connection. Prefer no setup? EPI reads your order emails for reports instead.

During setup archie also recognises your platform from your public site, including Magento and Wix, and reads your public product catalogue.
Email All plans
Your customer inbox, with sign-in the safe way.
Gmail and Outlook connect through the provider's own sign-in page, so archie never sees your password. Other mailboxes connect over standard IMAP and SMTP.

Google is still completing its formal app review, so “Connect with Google” is available to approved testers for now. Ask to be added.
Social messages
Customers' messages in the same queue.
Facebook Messenger, and Instagram messages when your Page has a linked Instagram account, arrive as tickets alongside email, with attachments in both directions.

Warehouses & fulfilment Full Store plan
If someone else packs your orders.
Connect your third-party logistics provider so fulfilment is handled alongside everything else.
Advertising Full Store plan
See what your ad spend actually returns.
Bring in spend from your ad accounts and see it next to real orders: cost per order, customer-acquisition cost and return on ad spend. Meta, Google and TikTok can also be loaded from the platforms' exported files if you prefer not to connect an account.

Good to know
Amazon, eBay and Etsy setup
These marketplaces currently need an access token created in the marketplace's own developer tools. archie's setup screen walks you through it step by step. A one-click sign-in is planned.
Countries
Address and region handling is built in for the UK, USA, Ireland, France and Germany.
Your credentials stay yours
Connection details are stored in your own encrypted database on your computer, never in plain text. See Security & data.
Order history, gently
The first import of a large store runs in the background at a gentle pace and resumes if interrupted.
Which plan?
Email and customer accounts work on every plan. Connecting stores, couriers, warehouses and ad platforms is part of Full Store.
