For Shopify stores selling products priced by size, area or quantity

Most Apps Add Options. Almost None Can Price Them Properly.

Your price depends on the size.
Most apps can add $10 for a finish. They can’t take 14 feet by 9, work out the area, drop the rate after 25 units, and stop at a $95 minimum.

That’s not a choice from a list. That’s math. Appify was built to do the math. Pick the product closest to yours and watch it price.

Why the search took this long

Four Things Most Options Apps Can’t Do

Options apps are easy to find. Ones that do the math aren’t.
The search gets stuck on one of these four.

1

Pricing that isn’t just “+$5”

Most apps add $5 for a finish. Yours needs 14.375 inches against a rate card, 22% off at 25 units, and a $95 floor. That’s a formula, a table and a rule at once. Most apps can’t say it.

2

They buy what they can picture

Nobody spends $600 on something they’re imagining. Show it at true scale. Let them drop their artwork on it and approve it before they pay.

3

Production gets a file, not a note

Options apps stop at the order confirmation. Somebody still has to make the thing. Every order lands with the measurements, an approved proof and a print-ready file with bleed and a cut line. Nobody retypes specs into Illustrator at 8am.

4

Outgrowing it means rebuilding everything

Most apps get close, so you settle and build the whole catalogue that way. Fixing it later means rebuilding every product, option and rate. Here, the hard product works on day one.

How the app store actually splits

Not Every Options App Is Solving the Same Problem

One kind of app adds choices to a product. The other puts a price on a choice.
Neither can price a measurement, show it at scale, or hand production a file.

Eight questions that rule out an app in two minutes

Every app lists the same features. Swatches, text fields, uploads, conditional logic.
That list tells you nothing. What separates them is the pricing underneath.

Ask these before you install the next one, Appify included.

  1. Can it calculate a price, or only add prices up? Totalling add-ons is easy. Multiplying a rate by an area, rounding up to whole units, holding a minimum, changing the rate past a threshold: that’s math, and adding won’t get there.
  2. Can one option’s price depend on another? A rate that only applies above a certain size. An edge finish priced by the perimeter. A surcharge that’s a percentage of the whole job. Fixed add-on prices can’t say any of that.
  3. Can a calculator go on any page, not just the product page? A collection page where the whole range prices itself. A quote builder on the home page. A configurator on a landing page you run ads to. Add to cart included.
  4. Are there variables you set once and use everywhere? Like a spreadsheet. Rates and thresholds live in one place and every formula points at them. Without it, one rate change means editing forty options.
  5. Can a customer reorder, and does an abandoned cart come back whole? Shopify’s own Buy again drops every option, so a wrong order lands in the cart looking right. Recovery emails do the same.
  6. Can the price come out of a table you paste in? A size grid, a break at 250 units, a rate card by material. A lot of pricing is a lookup, not a formula. No table means writing conditions until it breaks.
  7. Does a fee stay a fee when the quantity goes up? A $25 setup charge on 200 units should be $25, not $5,000. Ask directly. You only find out after you’ve built the product.
  8. Can the customer design the product, and can you limit what they change? Three things get sold under one name. An overlay on your product photo is a personalizer. Crop and filter on an upload is an image editor. A designer is a real artboard, sized by their own measurements, with cut lines and a print-ready file at the end.

Eight yeses is rare. Take the list to whichever app you look at next and get an answer to each one before you commit to it. Or get started with Appify and stop searching.

What your sales reports don’t show you

Nine Losses That Never Reach a Report

Someone was ready to buy, hit something the page couldn’t do, and left without a word.
Nine ways it happens. Under each one, the thing that stops it.

The week you spent in the App Store

Install. Build a test product. Enter a real measurement. Find out it can’t. Uninstall. Then do it again with the next one.

→ Eight questions that rule an app out in two minutes, without installing it

The pricing you simplified to fit the app

Your price list has rates, breaks and minimums. The app couldn’t, so sizes went into buckets with one price each. Every bucket overcharges someone or gives margin away.

→ Your actual price list on the page: rates, breaks, minimums, and sizes to the eighth of an inch

The option you stopped offering

The app couldn’t handle the way that one is priced, so it came off the page. Somewhere along the way you decided it isn’t something you sell.

→ Price adjustments, fixed fees, quantity discounts, limit and value rules, and a price built from any option or variable

The quote form they didn’t fill in

They wanted a number. You offered a form and a promise to email them back. The shop down the road gave them a number in four seconds.

→ Any price calculated instantly, however complex the product

The pages you couldn’t sell from

A quote builder on the home page. A landing page that ends in a price, not a contact form. If a calculator only runs on product pages, none of those exist.

→ Put a working calculator on any page, add to cart included

The app that broke on a phone

Most of your traffic is on a phone. A calculator that loads late, shoves the page down, or fights your theme loses sales without ever telling you.

→ Rendered on the server with the page: no wait, no jump, and your theme’s own add to cart

The cart that came back wrong

They sized a 14 by 9 wall, reached checkout and stopped. The recovery email works, but Shopify’s link drops the options. The cart comes back without the sizes and at the wrong price.

→ Restore the whole cart with every option and the right price on it

The email thread after the sale

What size did you want? Can you resend the file? Is this the right crop? All questions the product page could have asked.

→ Measurements, an approved proof and a print-ready file on the order

The reorder that never happened

She ordered 40 feet in March. In September she wants the same again. The page can’t remember, so she’d have to rebuild it all. She doesn’t.

→ Reorder puts the whole order back in the cart, options and files attached

None of these nine show up in analytics, so none of them ever make it onto a list to fix. They just keep happening. Install Appify, build your hardest product first, and you’ll know inside a week which of them were costing you.

Once you’ve found the one that works

Start From a Template, or Just Describe What You Sell

Finding the app was the hard part. Building the product takes an afternoon, not a project.

1

Take a template, or describe it

Open the closest template and change the rates. Or tell the AI what you sell in plain English, or hand it a screenshot of a calculator, and it builds the options for you.

2

Then describe how you price it

Type how you quote a job and the AI writes the formula. Rates, tables, minimums, breaks. Ask what any rule does and it answers in plain English.

3

Publish without touching your theme

Native add to cart. No Liquid, no new variants, nothing to break. Work in draft, publish when you’re ready, roll back any version.

Building this for a client?

Nothing is hard-coded into the theme. Rules read from the product and variant, so one setup runs the whole catalogue, and your next build starts from your own template.

Free on Shopify Partner dev stores, so you can build the whole thing before a client pays anything.

The parts every setup uses

What Matters No Matter What You Sell

The pieces every build uses, whether the product is a sticker or a staircase.
Each one is a working demo on our store. Go operate it.

The ones that surface later

Three You Won’t Think to Ask About

Nobody weighs these while choosing an app.
All three turn up later, when the catalogue is too big to rebuild.

Most options apps show one currency

A shopper in another market sees your home currency and has to work out what it really costs them. Most of them don’t bother.

→ Reads your Shopify Markets rates, so option prices, fees and the total all convert. Nothing to set up in the app

Most options apps don’t translate the calculator

Your store is translated. The calculator isn’t, so the options, the prices and the buttons are still in English. Customers can’t order what they can’t read.

→ Up to 10 languages per calculator, options and summary included, with an AI pass that does the bulk in one go

Most options apps have no version control

You change a price, it comes out wrong, and there is no way back. The setup you had is gone.

→ Every publish is saved as a version, so a bad change is one click from undone

Let Them See It Before They Buy It

Custom work fails at the imagination step. Customers can’t picture a 24 by 36 sign or a pattern on a real wall. So they hesitate, ask, or leave.

The Product Designer puts a real artboard on the page. Customers add text, clipart and their own images, and the canvas resizes with the product, so what they see stays true to what they’re ordering.

Two tools, chosen per product. A personalizer overlays their choices on your product photo. A designer hands them an artboard. Some products want one, some the other, plenty both.

Under the hood

Everything the Pricing Engine Can Do

You won’t need all of this. It’s here because somewhere in it is the one rule that makes your hardest product finally work on a product page.

Pricing That Matches How You Quote

Charge from what the customer measures.Area, length, perimeter, volume or coverage, live from the dimensions they type.
Formulas that read your own pricing.Whatever shape your pricing takes, you can build it. Variables reuse one rate across the catalogue.
Pricing tables in one or two dimensions.Paste in the rate card you already use. Size down one axis, quantity across the other, exact numbers in the cells.
Quantity discounts that actually get steeper.Breaks by volume, or by size and volume together, so the price rewards the orders you want.
Minimum charges and named fees.Floor the jobs too small to be worth setting up. Rush, setup and install get their own visible line.
A price summary the customer can read.The total, built line by line, so nobody emails to ask why it costs that.

Options That Behave Like Real Products

Conditional show, hide and require.Rules driven by earlier answers, so the form only asks what’s relevant.
Multi-step flows.Break a long configuration into stages instead of dropping twenty fields on one screen.
Swatches, not dropdowns.Materials shown as images that carry their own price. Nobody picks a finish from a text list.
Blocked combinations stay blocked.Sizes you can’t produce are stopped before the order, not after the material is cut.
Add-ons and accessories.Motors, stakes, hardware and extras priced individually and attached to the same line item.
One setup across the catalogue.Detail reads from the product and variant, so a new product sells the day you publish it.

Fits Your Store, Not the Other Way Around

Native add to cart.The order goes through your theme’s own cart. No workaround before checkout.
No new variants, ever.Options and pricing live outside the variant system, so your catalogue stays readable.

Edit without breaking the live page.Work in draft while shoppers keep seeing the last published version. Every publish saves a version you can restore.

Built and Supported from Canada

Support comes from the people who build the app. Ask a hard pricing question and you won’t be explaining your trade to a stranger first.

No first-line queue You’re not passed from someone reading a script to someone who knows the app.
Live chat and email Reach us from inside the app or through the support portal, whichever suits the question.
We know measurement workflows Area pricing, waste factors, panel plans and proofs, not generic app support.

You Might Be Wondering

"This sounds technical. I don't write formulas."

Most merchants here don’t. Describe your pricing in plain language and the AI builds it, or start from a template. Support will build the awkward one with you.

"My store isn't finished yet."

That’s the easiest time. Get the pricing right before orders depend on it. Partner dev stores are free, so build and test everything before anyone pays a cent.

"I already have an options app."

For options, most work fine. Can yours price from a measurement, block a size you can’t build, and hand production an approved file? If that still happens by email, that’s the part this replaces.

"My product isn't one of the ones you listed."

Those are just the ones with demos ready. The engine runs on measurements, options and rules, not categories. If you can explain how you quote it, it can be built.

"Will this slow my product pages down?"

No. Everything renders with the page and adds to cart natively. No separate cart flow.

"Do I have to let customers upload artwork?"

No. The designer is optional per product. Plenty of stores run pricing and previews with uploads off.

"How do I know it fits my products before installing?"

Go and use it. The demo store runs all of these as real configurators. Operate one as a customer would before installing anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of products is this for?

Anything priced by size, material, quantity or configuration rather than a fixed variant. Stickers, wallpaper, blinds, flooring, signs, print, upholstery, glass, framing and fabrication all work the same way.

My store is brand new. Is it too early to install?

No, it’s the best time. Build the pricing before you have live orders and nothing has to migrate later. Partner development stores are free, so you can test the whole setup before opening.

Do I need a developer to set this up?

No. Start from a template and change the rates, or describe your pricing and the AI builds it. Nothing is added to your theme code.

Can I price from customer measurements?

Yes. Area, length, perimeter, volume and coverage are calculated from what the customer enters, with your rates, minimums and discounts applied on top.

Does this create extra variants in my store?

No. Options and pricing live outside the variant system, so no combination of size and material ever becomes another SKU.

Do I need to know how to write formulas?

No. Describe your pricing in plain language and the AI builds it, or start from a template and change the rates.

Can options depend on each other?

Yes. Rules show, hide and require fields based on earlier answers, so customers never see an option that doesn’t apply.

Can customers upload and edit their own artwork?

Yes. The Product Designer includes a full artboard and a built-in photo editor. It can be switched off per product.

What files does production receive?

Orders can carry the measurements, all selections, an approved proof PNG, a print-ready PNG with bleed, a cut-line SVG and the canvas JSON for later re-editing.

Can customers reorder a past custom order?

Yes. A past order goes back in the cart with every option and file intact, from the order or the customer’s account portal.

Does it recover abandoned carts?

Yes. Recovery emails restore the full configuration, not an empty configurator.

Will it match my theme?

Yes. Six style presets set the look in one click, and every colour, font, spacing and corner radius behind them is editable.

Can I edit without customers seeing a broken page?

Yes. Work in draft while shoppers see the last published version. Every publish saves a version you can restore.

What does it cost?

From $39 per month with a 14-day free trial. The price scales with calculator usage, and monthly AI credits are included. Partner development stores are free.
