Built an AI shopping assistant for Shopify stores — looking for first 10 merchants to work closely

Hey everyone 👋

Shopify AI shopping assistant that helps shoppers:

  • Ask questions about products
  • Get AI-powered recommendations
  • Add products to cart directly from chat
  • Recover abandoned shopping intent with smart nudges
  • Track AI-assisted revenue + funnel analytics

I’m looking for the first 10 merchants who want to seriously experiment with AI-driven shopping experiences.

What we’re offering

✅ Direct access to our team/founder
✅ Fast feature requests + feedback loop
✅ Help with setup + optimization
✅ Opportunity to shape the product roadmap early

What we’re looking for

Ideally stores that:

  • Get consistent traffic
  • Care about conversion/customer experience
  • Are willing to actively share feedback
  • Want to test AI shopping experiences before competitors do

This is still early-stage, so I’d rather work closely with a small group and build something genuinely useful instead of chasing vanity installs.

If interested, comment below or DM me your store link 🙌

Hey folks,

We just got our Shopify app approved today — first submission, no rejections.

Which honestly makes me a bit nervous 😄

I’ve heard so many stories about long review cycles, back-and-forth, edge cases… so now I’m wondering:

👉 what usually breaks after approval?

We tried to be thorough:

  • clean onboarding
  • real use case (not just “AI for the sake of AI”)
  • clear merchant value

But I know the real test starts now — with actual stores and real traffic.

If you’ve launched an app before:

  • what caught you off guard post-launch?
  • what should we watch closely in the first 30 days?

Would love to learn from folks who’ve been through this.

Appreciate any advice 🙏

I’ve been spending time in the Shopify ecosystem lately, and one thing is clear — there are still some really hard, unsolved problems hiding beneath the surface.

Not looking to pitch anything.
Looking to understand what actually hurts.

If you’re a merchant, developer, or operator — what’s one problem you wish someone would just fix?

I’m interested in building something meaningful here. Please post what do you think.

Thinking of building a starter kit that handles:

  • double-entry ledger
  • idempotent transactions
  • Stripe ↔ DB reconciliation

for Next.js apps

Would this actually be useful, or do most people roll their own?
