How long does it take to build a custom Shopify app?

Simple apps take 3-4 weeks, complex apps with multiple integrations take 6-10 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during the scoping phase.

How much does a custom app cost?

Costs depend on complexity. Simple apps start around the cost of 12 months of the third-party apps they replace. We provide a fixed-price quote after scoping.

Can you integrate with our ERP or warehouse system?

Yes. We have experience integrating Shopify with SAP, NetSuite, Zoho, and custom ERPs. If the system has an API, we can connect it.

Will the app work with Shopify OS 2.0 and app extensions?

Yes. All our apps are built using the latest Shopify app architecture including App Bridge, Polaris, and Checkout UI Extensions where applicable.

Do you publish apps to the Shopify App Store?

We primarily build private apps for individual merchants. If you want to publish a public app, we can handle the submission and review process as well.

What happens if Shopify changes their API?

We monitor Shopify API changelog and proactively update your app when breaking changes are announced. This is included in our maintenance plans.

The Problem

The App Store Does Not Have What You Need

App Stack Bloat

You are stitching together 5 apps to achieve one workflow. Each adds JavaScript, costs money, and creates potential points of failure.

No Integration Between Systems

Your ERP, warehouse, CRM, and Shopify store live in silos. Data flows manually or not at all, creating errors and delays.

Limited Customization

Off-the-shelf apps get you 80% of the way. That last 20% is what makes your business unique, and you cannot customize it.

Vendor Lock-In Risk

Third-party apps can change pricing, pivot their product, or shut down. Your critical workflow depends on someone else's business decisions.

Custom Apps Built Exactly for Your Workflow

We scope, design, and build Shopify apps and portals that fit your business like a glove. Own your code, control your data, and eliminate dependency on third-party apps.

Testimonials

Rajkumar Venkatachalam

E-Commerce Expert | Conversion & Retention Strategist | Co-Founder of Neidhal.Com, Neidhal.Com

I have been working with Adarsh for the last 8 months. He helped in creating my website with utmost professionalism and dedication. I was so impressed with his work and attitude, that I have taken his services to develop website for few of my know D2C brands. We can easily find highly technical people but along with that its difficult to find people with work ethics. Adarsh has this rare combination, he is brilliant at his work and at the same time he understands the problems of D2C brand owners face. He would suggest good and affordable apps, concepts, features that will enhance the websites usability. He is going to be my go to person for all my development needs. To put it short, he doesn't develop functional websites, but develops the one that is Performing.
