Shopify + AI · Built for D2C Brands · 150+ Stores Live
Your Shopify Store Converts at 1.2%. Ours Convert at 4%+
Template stores, default search nobody uses, zero personalization. That's why your conversion rate is stuck. We build AI-powered Shopify stores that turn browsers into buyers — with smart search, personalized recommendations, and an AI shopping assistant.
Your current store is leaving $14K/month on the table.
Why most D2C stores are stuck at 1–2% conversion.
We've audited >200 Shopify stores over the last three years and the pattern is almost always the same six leaks — in roughly the same order of revenue impact. None of them are about your brand or your product. They're all fixable.
For a store doing $200k/month at 1.5% conversion, closing four of the six is usually worth an extra $40k–$80k/month in tracked revenue within 90 days. The math doesn't care about your industry.
Get a free leak auditMobile experience is an afterthought
68% of D2C traffic is mobile, but most stores are designed desktop-first then “responsive-ified.” Tap targets too small, product images too heavy, checkout requires 6 thumb-jumps. We design mobile-first — desktop is the responsive layout.
Default search returns junk
Shopify's built-in search matches exact keywords. Customers type “red dress under $50” and get zero results. They leave. Most stores lose 15–25% of intent traffic to bad search alone.
Every visitor sees identical product recommendations
“You might also like” that’s actually “here are 4 random products from the same collection.” Real personalization needs visitor-level behavior: what they viewed, added to cart, bought last time — and a model that updates per session.
Page loads are 4+ seconds on mobile
Every 1s of load delay drops conversion ~7%. The usual culprits: heavy slider apps, uncompressed hero images, 12 tracking pixels firing on page-load, and 4 chat widgets stacking. We profile and prune — typical result: 4.2s → 1.8s.
Checkout has friction nobody catches
Forced account creation. No Shop Pay. No Apple/Google Pay buttons. Address autocomplete missing. International customers seeing $ instead of €. Each friction point costs 5–15% of conversion. We audit checkout funnels frame-by-frame.
Post-purchase ends at the order confirmation email
No abandoned-cart sequence. No review request. No replenishment reminder for consumables. No win-back for lapsed buyers. Klaviyo flows alone typically add 20–35% of revenue — if you actually build them.
AI-powered Shopify. Built to convert.
Custom Store Design
Conversion-first design, not template tweaks. We design stores around your brand, your customer journey, and your AOV goals — mobile-first, sub-2s load times.
AI Smart Search
Your customers type "blue summer dress under $50" and *actually* find it. Typo-tolerant, visual search, intent-based — not Shopify's default search that nobody uses.
AI Product Recommendations
"You might also like" that learns from every click. Personalized cross-sells and upsells that boost AOV by 15-30%. Not random "related products."
AI Shopping Assistant
Not a chatbot that says "contact support." An AI sales agent trained on your catalog — handles orders, returns, sizing questions. 24/7. In 12 languages.
Store Migration
Moving from WooCommerce, Magento, or Squarespace? Zero-downtime migration. SEO preserved. Customer data intact. 301 redirects handled. No lost rankings.
International Expansion
Multi-currency, multi-language, geo-targeted pricing. Sell in USD, GBP, EUR, AED from one store. Tax config included — not "Phase 2."
