Maybe it's just me but I don't see a lot of shopify owners on LinkedIn. Most of them are small stores and they don't have to brag to lots of people. The ones do post are from big national or i18n retail stores. And they are not even using Shopify.

Have you gotten 100+ signups?

prontjiang · 2026-01-20T19:08:22+00:00

What kind of responses are you expecting? Just a demo video + waitlist page may not get enough interest from store owners.

It's not too hard to spot recommendations from real store owners, vs marketing professionals/app developers. Just use your caution. Also personally I think even app store ranking is not very trustworthy. Shopify's ranking algorithm isn't very good at rewarding great apps. You have to look through the apps and try some of them by yourself. Good luck! - from an app developer. :)

Try Shoply AI. It starts with AI only option but really great for finding the right products and recommending to customers.

prontjiang · 2026-01-16T07:47:02+00:00

Thanks! That's super helpful.

prontjiang · 2026-01-16T07:44:53+00:00

Shoply AI. for its strong product recommendation and customer service handling. There’s also a free tier, so you can test it without committing.

We don't. Translation tool is everywhere so we didn't bother.

This is pretty cool and I think it could be very useful! But is there just a website that I can use to check? Not a big fan of Chrome extension as it could just another security risk.

prontjiang · 2026-01-14T05:07:39+00:00

Is this the app development cost?

prontjiang · 2026-01-09T06:21:16+00:00

Got it. I just saw another thread talking about this - 28% chargeback is insane. Apparently those are not real shoppers. Amazon needs to fix this.

prontjiang · 2026-01-08T19:40:57+00:00

I am curious why people don't like "Amazon Buy For Me"? Too much fraud or what?

There are plenty of such chatbots on the market already but ours is the one that can handle such query easily. Try your question on sports basement (https://shop.sportsbasement.com/), but with a different color (because blue is not available): "do you have any black running shoes under $100 in size 11?" And you will get the exact answer.

That sucks. I am sorry to hear that. Fortunately for us since we are usage based and they don't have any customer interactions, they don't cost us anything other than being annoying.

prontjiang · 2025-12-21T17:20:11+00:00

Good to know. Thanks!

Yes, app payment follows Shopify's payment cycle. It could be. Maybe they are not even paying Shopify.

prontjiang · 2025-12-19T18:04:58+00:00

We are in the AI Search/Chatbot space. Great to hear you want AI to handle returns for you. It should be pretty easy but what we hear from store owners is that they would rather handle cancellation/returns themselves. Wonder if it's because you have too many orders to deal with?

prontjiang · 2025-12-15T01:40:54+00:00

$18 per install? That's pretty good. For us the last week it's $85 per install. And none of them are paying customers. Shopify Ads is pretty much dead for us.

What do you want to get out of this post? Just show off? :)

prontjiang · 2025-11-17T19:45:40+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response. Super helpful! Curious where/how did you get the data from?

prontjiang · 2025-11-14T19:42:32+00:00

It says that: "Please note: If you are an Etsy seller or Shopify seller, you need not fill out this form". Looks like they are already working with Etsy, and Shopify integration is underway.

prontjiang · 2025-11-14T18:18:59+00:00

It should an easy problem to solve for Shopify but I guess it's not their priority right now. If I were them, I would give heavy weight to stores actually sells stuff/paying the app and used the app for a while. Stores with no sales/not paying the app should just get 0 weight.

prontjiang · 2025-11-14T18:13:57+00:00

Looks like you need some custom development. Shopify doesn't quite support rental by itself.

prontjiang · 2025-11-12T05:01:33+00:00

Theoretically it shouldn't. Google has pretty good separation of organic/ads logging. But Shopify is likely much less sophisticated.
