What we do
Seven pillars. One operating system.
Why we exist
Most agencies sell hours. We ship systems.
The honest version: in 2024 I watched AI quietly do most of the busywork I used to bill clients for. So I rebuilt the agency around it. Every engagement now ships an AI layer that learns your brand, watches your data and does the repeatable jobs, while we focus on the calls only a senior operator should make.
- Custom GPTs trained on your brand voice, products and historical performance
- Agent workflows that draft ads, briefs, listings and lifecycle emails
- Retrieval pipelines over your analytics, support tickets and reviews

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does Cart Ignite do?
Cart Ignite is an AI native digital marketing agency based in the Northern Rivers, NSW, Australia. We run seven growth pillars under one roof, paid ads, SEO and AI search (AIO), Shopify development, Amazon and marketplaces, Klaviyo email and SMS, conversion rate optimisation, and custom AI systems, for ecommerce, DTC, B2B and public sector brands across Australia, the US, the UK and Europe.
What makes an AI native agency different from a normal agency?
A normal agency sells hours and adds AI to its reporting. An AI native agency ships the automation layer as a deliverable. Every Cart Ignite engagement includes custom agents and retrieval pipelines built on your own data that draft, monitor and report in the background, with a senior human approving anything customer facing. Clients typically reclaim 40 to 70 percent of the time spent on repeatable operations.
How much does Cart Ignite cost?
Engagements start with a two week paid discovery, then move to a monthly retainer scoped to the pillars you need. Most ecommerce and DTC retainers land between AUD $5,000 and $20,000 per month depending on channel count, catalogue size and how much AI system build is in scope. You get an exact number in writing after the intro call, and there are no long lock in contracts.
Do you work with brands outside Australia?
Yes. We are based in the Northern Rivers of NSW and actively run accounts across Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe. Most communication is async through a shared Linear or Notion workspace, with a weekly live call scheduled in your timezone.
