What Your Fishmonger Virtual Assistant Executes Daily
Free up 20 to 30 hours each week from desk fatigue and pre-dawn spreadsheet logging so you can focus on sourcing the freshest fish, nurturing chef accounts, and commanding retail counters.
Pre-Dawn Wholesale Order Intake & Chef Triage
Never miss a late-night order or chef text. We aggregate orders arriving from Fresho, Choco, WhatsApp, voicemail, and email into your master pack list before your cutting team steps on the floor.
- Consolidating late-night chef texts into unified cut sheets
- Flagging out-of-stock items and proposing acceptable substitutions (e.g. Cod for Haddock)
- Organizing wholesale customer priority tiers and standing recurring orders
Catch-Weight Reconciliations & Final Invoicing
Seafood is sold on actual scale weights, not estimates. We review your cutters' scale slips, match exact weights to orders in Fresho or QuickBooks, and instantly dispatch accurate invoices.
- Updating exact catch weights across whole fish, fillets, and shellfish loins
- Applying customer-specific wholesale price lists, discounts, and delivery fees
- Generating and sending PDF invoices directly to restaurant back-offices
Daily Catch Sheet Publishing & Retail E-Commerce
Keep your retail counter and wholesale buyers up-to-date with market prices. We update inventory across Shopify, Square, and B2B ordering portals so you never oversell scarce morning catches.
- Publishing daily "Fresh Off The Boat" product availability and market pricing
- Managing weekly direct-to-consumer seafood boxes and home subscription orders
- Deactivating sold-out species to prevent customer checkout friction
Dock Supplier PO Audits & Fillet Yield Tracking
Stop losing margin to supplier bill errors. We cross-reference dock delivery slips, auction receipts, and fisherman invoices against receiving scales to flag missing weights and price spikes.
- Three-way matching vendor invoices, scale tickets, and purchase orders in QBO
- Logging whole-fish-to-fillet yield metrics to monitor fish-cutting efficiency
- Documenting vendor credit requests for shorted or suboptimal quality shipments
Refrigerated Logistics Routing & Driver Manifests
Get fish to restaurant prep kitchens before service begins. We plot smart delivery routes in Routific or OptimoRoute, generate packing manifests by van, and provide live customer delivery windows.
- Sequencing routes according to chef receiving windows (e.g. 8:00 AM - 11:00 AM)
- Printing driver delivery sheets grouped by cooler bins and ice retention zones
- Communicating real-time delay notices to head chefs and restaurant buyers
HACCP Temperature Logs & Traceability Records
Stay 100% compliant with FDA and health inspector requirements. We archive daily walk-in cooler temperature logs, digital sensor records, vessel harvest tags, and shellfish certification numbers.
- Centralizing digital HACCP temperature check logs from Monnit or manual clipboards
- Cataloging oyster and clam harvest tags for mandatory 90-day retention policies
- Maintaining country of origin labeling (COOL) and sustainability certificate files

"Every morning at 4:30 AM, I used to sit in our freezing office keying in restaurant voicemails and WhatsApp texts into Fresho. SageDoer's VA now organizes all incoming chef orders before my cutters start at 5:00 AM. I finally get 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep."
Callum Lindqvist
Owner, North Shore Seafood Wholesale (Boston)
"Catch-weight reconciliation was bleeding our margins. Cutters would scale a 28.4 lb Halibut, but invoices went out with standard 25 lb approximations. Our SageDoer assistant matches scale tickets to QBO line items down to the exact ounce. Having the PM verify accuracy has been incredible."
Marco DeLuca
Founder, Pacific Heritage Fish & Shellfish (Seattle)
"We run both a retail market counter and a weekly home seafood share. Our SageDoer VA handles customer subscription changes in Shopify, coordinates refrigerated van drop-offs in Routific, and files our oyster harvest tags. At $6/hour, the value is unbeatable."
Sarah Brennan
Managing Director, Coastal Catch Purveyors (Maine)
"Auditing supplier dock slips used to get pushed to the weekend. SageDoer now reconciles daily vessel auction invoices against receiving logs immediately. In month one, they caught $3,200 in incorrect grade billing. Best operational hire we've made."
