AI agents for Lightspeed Retail
A Monmo AI agent works in Lightspeed Retail the way an assistant store manager would. It sends each store's sales summary after closing, drafts purchase orders to vendors from reorder points, checks inventory counts, plans transfers between locations and spots slow-moving stock. It uses your own Lightspeed login. Creating or changing a purchase order, an item, a count or a transfer waits for your approval.

What agents do in Lightspeed Retail
Send each store's day after closing
After the registers close it posts each store's day in Slack in a few lines: sales, transactions, average basket, top items, discounts and refunds, set beside the same weekday last week.
AskEvery night at 9, send me each store's Lightspeed sales next to the same day last week.
Draft vendor purchase orders
It compares stock with each item's reorder point and desired level, groups what is needed by vendor and prepares purchase orders at vendor cost. Saving and sending each order asks first.
AskDraft purchase orders for everything below reorder point at both stores, one per vendor.
Check an inventory count
After a count it compares counted quantities with what Lightspeed expected, lists the largest gaps by value and suggests which to recount before the count is reconciled. Reconciling asks first.
AskCompare Saturday's count at the Main Street store with expected stock and list the largest differences by value.
Plan transfers between locations
When one store sells out of a size another store has plenty of, it proposes a transfer with items and quantities, based on recent sales at each. The transfer is created when you allow it.
AskPropose transfers so each store has at least two weeks of the winter boots, based on the last 30 days of sales.
Load the new season's items
From a vendor's line sheet it prepares new items with descriptions, categories, sizes and colours, costs and prices, and shows the import on one card for you to check before anything is created.
AskPrepare the new spring items from the Alder line sheet, with our usual markup, for my approval.
Spot slow movers
Each month it lists in Google Sheets the items with stock but no sales in 60 or 90 days, their value at cost and store, and suggests a markdown, a transfer or a return to the vendor.
AskList items with no sales in 90 days at either store, with value at cost, and suggest what to do with each.
Follow up special orders
It lists customer special orders that have arrived but not been collected, drafts a pickup reminder in Gmail to each customer, and flags orders still waiting on a vendor.
AskEvery Thursday, list special orders that have arrived and not been collected, and draft a reminder to each customer.
How it connects
- 1You connect your own Lightspeed Retail account once. The account owner or an admin usually authorises the connection, and the agent sees the shops, items and sales that account can reach.
- 2You pick which agents may use Lightspeed. An operations or retail agent fits; your bookkeeping agent may need only the daily sales and payment totals it checks against Xero or QuickBooks.
- 3Reading sales, stock and reports needs no approval. Creating or changing items, prices, purchase orders, counts or transfers, and any email to a vendor or customer, ask first. Refunds and register work stay with your staff at the till.

Questions people ask
Can an AI agent manage stock in Lightspeed Retail?
It watches stock and prepares the changes, and you approve them. A Monmo agent compares stock with reorder points, drafts purchase orders, checks counts and plans transfers between stores. Each change is shown on a card, then saved through the Lightspeed connection, or in its own browser when the connection does not cover something.
Does it work with more than one store location?
Yes. The agent reads sales and stock for every location your account can see, reports each store separately and side by side, and suggests transfers based on what sells where. If you want it to see one store only, connect a Lightspeed user whose access is limited to that store.
Can it check Lightspeed sales against Xero or QuickBooks?
Yes. If you already sync Lightspeed to Xero or QuickBooks, the agent compares daily sales and payment totals between the two and lists any day that does not match, with the likely reason. If you do not sync, it prepares a daily sales summary your bookkeeper can post, and asks before posting anything itself.
Will it change prices at the till?
Only with your approval. Price changes are prepared as a before-and-after list, with the margin at each new price, and nothing is saved until you allow it. The agent does not work the register: sales, refunds and cash counts stay with your staff, and it reports on them afterwards.
