About Tempist Online

Tempist Online is a digital commerce engineering studio that builds autonomous systems for ambitious brands, retailers and agencies. Rather than handing clients a static website and walking away, we engineer complete commerce ecosystems — storefronts, AI media production pipelines, lead-generation engines and operations monitors that execute work without constant human oversight. Our flagship product, ColeLab, is an end-to-end AI creative studio producing agency-grade video and image assets at a fraction of traditional cost, while our Shopify-grade storefront powers thousands of SKUs with category-driven navigation, real-time stock states and full-payment checkout.

The platform is built for South African and international businesses that have outgrown template site builders — retailers, importers, engineering firms, hospitality groups and B2B suppliers who need verifiable inventory, automated outreach, computer-vision quality control and integrations with Google Shopping, Meta Commerce and WhatsApp. From a single dashboard, operators manage products, orders, leads, email and WhatsApp sequences, analytics and pricing — all backed by PostgreSQL, Docker, Playwright and OpenCV for reliability most agencies cannot staff.

Tempist Online is founded and engineered by Cole Hayden Baptist, a Full-Stack Automation Engineer and Digital Commerce Architect based in Edenvale, Gauteng. With a verified network of 1,000+ suppliers, 95,000+ SKUs structured, and triple Google Ads certification, Cole leads a small team that ships production systems end-to-end. Everything we build is designed to compound in value — autonomous, self-correcting, and measurable.
