Origin came to us with a WordPress site they couldn't change without a developer. Every edit was a ticket. Every ticket was hours. We moved them onto Shopify, wired in their trade software, and solved their imagery problem with a bit of AI.
Chapter 01
Website
A Shopify replatform out of an over-developed WordPress maze. Every page editable in under a minute.
Out of WordPress, into Shopify
A platform the team can actually use
The previous WordPress build had been over-developed into a maze. Custom post types, nested blocks, shortcode tangles. Nothing could be edited without a developer on call.
We replatformed onto Shopify with a lean theme and a clean content model. Every page editable in under a minute. Conversion rate lifted from day one.

Chapter 02
Integration
Smart Glazier, live and in sync. One source of truth across the trade operation and the storefront.
Integration
Smart Glazier, live and in sync
Origin's trade operation runs on Smart Glazier. We built a proper integration. Product data, pricing, and availability flowing into Shopify without manual reconciliation. Fewer errors. Less admin. One source of truth.
Chapter 03
AI
An AI image pipeline that turns customer install photos into uniform, brand-ready imagery.
AI
Making customer photos look like a brand shoot
Most of Origin's imagery came from installers and customers. Phone shots taken in daylight, different angles, mixed quality. Unusable on the storefront as-is.
We built an AI retouching pipeline that standardises angles, lighting, and backgrounds across the catalogue. The imagery now reads as one brand, from one camera, on one set.
