Ecommerce software

AI apps for ecommerce.

Software online stores use for product content, customer service, search, feeds and marketing. Each listing is checked against the vendor's own website: what it does, the platforms it names and how it is priced.

What do you need an app for?

From what each vendor's own pages say the product does.

How it is priced

An app can do more than one thing.

Platforms named by vendors

A count of listings, not of usage.

195 of 389 apps show a monthly price in US dollars on their own site. The median is taken over those only. 84 were listed on the Shopify App Store when we checked.

What to check before buying an AI app

Questions to answer from the vendor's own documentation, trial and terms before installing.

What the AI actually does
Vendors use “AI” for anything from a text generator to a forecasting model. Look for the specific output: descriptions written, tickets answered, images produced, forecasts made.
Apps that describe their AI
What store data it can read and change
Store apps ask for permissions when you install them, such as read and write access to products, orders or customers. Check the list before approving, and whether the app changes live data or drafts.
What the price is based on
Plans may charge per month, per order, per product, per generated item or in credits. Work out the cost at your own order and catalogue volume, not the entry plan.
Order by starting price
Whether you can try it first
A trial on your own catalogue shows more than a demo. Check what happens to generated content and settings when the trial ends.
186 apps with a free trial
Whether it works with your platform
A stated integration or an app store listing is stronger evidence than a logo on a landing page. Profiles here name a platform only where the vendor states it.
Who makes it and where data goes
Check the company behind the app, its privacy policy and where customer data is processed, particularly for apps that read customer or order records.

Research on AI in ecommerce

How this directory works

Where listings come from

Candidates were found on AI tool directories (There's An AI For That, Futurepedia, Toolify), the Shopify App Store, vendor sites and submissions. A directory entry is a lead; nothing is listed from it alone.

How each one is checked

We fetch the vendor's website and follow its redirects, read its pricing page where it links one, and re-check its Shopify App Store listing where one exists. Last full check: Sept 2026.

What gets listed

Software that is available today, from a working website, and that is built for online stores or shows ecommerce-specific features or integrations. Duplicates are merged into one listing.

What is extracted, and how

What an app does, the platforms it names, its pricing model, starting price and trial are extracted by a language model from that evidence, with the evidence kept for review. Prices are shown only when the vendor shows one in US dollars. We do not test the apps.

What is not listed

Of 493 candidates reviewed, 389 are listed. Of the rest, 31 had a dead, parked, redirected or unreadable website, 6 belong in another section (MCP servers, custom GPTs or shopping agents), 25 were services, directories or not software for stores, 33 were general tools where ecommerce is incidental, and 9 were duplicates or lacked enough evidence.

Corrections

Vendors can claim a listing to correct it, or write to hello@ecommerceguide.com.
