Shopify + AI + Automation

Shopify Development Services & Automation

Build a Shopify Store Ready for Growth

Build, redesign, migrate, and automate your Shopify store with professional Shopify development services from Flasin. From custom Shopify themes and Liquid development to API integrations, AI customer support, CRM connections, and workflow automation, we build e-commerce systems designed to grow with your business.

  • New stores, redesigns and migrations
  • AI and automation built in or added later
  • Connected to the tools you already run

The Shopify project stack

  2. The AI layerChatbot, customer support, product help, voice
  3. The integration layerApps, CRM, email and SMS, APIs and webhooks
  4. The storeTheme, pages, products, collections, checkout settings

Each layer is scoped separately. Start with the store and add the layers above it when you are ready, without rebuilding.

Why it matters

Shopify Development Built Around Your Entire E-commerce Operation

Getting products online is the easy part. What decides whether a store is manageable is everything around it: how orders reach the people who fulfil them, how customer questions are answered, how a wholesale enquiry is followed up, and how many times the same information is typed into a different system.

In a lot of stores that work is still manual. The theme looks fine, but support runs from an inbox, the CRM is updated by hand if at all, and the apps installed to fix each problem do not talk to each other.

Flasin builds the Shopify store and connects it to the rest of the business — support, CRM, email and SMS, fulfilment and internal workflows — so the store does more of the operational work and your team does less of it. You can start with the store alone and add the rest later; each piece is scoped on its own.

What businesses usually want to change

  • A store that is hard to update without a developer
  • Customer questions answered slowly, or only in office hours
  • Orders and customer details copied between systems by hand
  • Apps piled up with overlapping jobs and rising monthly costs
  • Leads and wholesale enquiries with no follow-up process
  • A theme that has aged badly on phones

Sometimes the answer is a new build or a migration; often it is a redesign of the pages that matter and the connections that were never made. Need a business website rather than a store? See our AI-ready web development service.

What we build

Shopify Development Services

From a first store to a migration off another platform, and the custom code and integrations that go beyond what apps can do. Each area is scoped on its own, so you pay for what your store needs.

Shopify Store Design & Development

A professional store that is easy to manage and works on every screen.

  • New Shopify store builds
  • Product and collection setup
  • Payment and checkout configuration
  • Mobile-first layouts and testing

Shopify Redesign & Theme Customization

A modern store without losing what already works.

  • Redesigns of existing Shopify stores
  • Theme customization on a duplicate theme, so the live store keeps selling
  • Navigation and page structure

Shopify Migration Services

A planned move to Shopify, with your data and search visibility carried across.

  • WooCommerce to Shopify migration
  • Migration from Wix, Squarespace, BigCommerce or a custom site
  • Product, customer and content migration
  • URL mapping and redirects

Shopify Liquid Development

Custom theme code where settings and apps are not enough.

  • Custom sections and page templates
  • Metafield-driven product content
  • Theme changes built to stay editable in the theme editor

Shopify B2B & Subscription Setup

Selling to trade customers and on repeat, set up to match how you actually sell.

  • Wholesale pricing and customer-specific catalogues
  • Trade account and order rules
  • Subscription setup with the app that suits your products

Shopify API & App Integrations

The store connected to the systems your business already runs on.

  • App selection, setup and clean-up
  • Shopify Admin API and webhook integrations
  • Connections to ERP, fulfilment, accounting and custom systems

Some B2B and checkout features depend on your Shopify plan, so we confirm what your plan supports before scoping them. Store content, photography and brand identity can be included or handled by your team.

Beyond the storefront

Shopify AI & Automation Services

Shopify development does not have to stop at the storefront. Flasin connects Shopify with AI assistants, CRM systems, messaging platforms, APIs, and workflow automation so more of your e-commerce operations can run automatically.

AI Chatbots for Shopify

A chatbot trained on your products, policies and FAQs that answers shoppers on the page, day or night, and hands over to your team with the conversation attached.

AI Customer Support

Routine questions about delivery, returns and orders answered from your own published terms, with exceptions routed to a person rather than guessed at.

AI Product Assistance

Help shoppers compare products, find the right size or variant, and get answers from your catalogue data instead of leaving to search elsewhere.

AI Voice Agents

A voice agent on your phone line for order questions, store information and call-backs, sharing the same knowledge as the chatbot.

Shopify Lead Automation

Wholesale, bulk-order and custom-product enquiries captured with the details your team needs and written straight into your CRM.

Shopify Order Automation

Order and fulfilment updates triggered from Shopify events, so customers stay informed and your team is not answering where-is-my-order by hand.

Abandoned Cart Automation

Recovery sequences across email and SMS, built on Shopify's checkout events and the messaging platform you already use.

Shopify CRM Integration

Customers, orders and enquiries kept in step with HubSpot, Salesforce, GoHighLevel, Zoho or another CRM with a published API.

Shopify Workflow Automation

Shopify Flow, n8n, Make, Zapier, or custom code on Shopify's APIs and webhooks — whichever fits the job, your budget and who will maintain it.

Each of these can be part of the first project or added once the store is live. They run on Flasin's own services — AI chatbot development, AI voice agents and AI automation services — and which ones are in scope is confirmed before the build starts. Not sure where to begin? A free AI audit looks at where your store's time actually goes.

Integrations

Shopify Integrations & API Development

We build Shopify integrations using supported apps, APIs, webhooks, Shopify Flow, n8n, Make, Zapier, or custom code, depending on the requirements of your store and the systems it needs to connect with.

CRM Integrations

Customers and orders in the system your team works from.

  • HubSpot
  • Salesforce
  • GoHighLevel
  • Zoho

Email & SMS Integrations

Order updates, cart recovery and follow-up sequences.

  • Klaviyo
  • Mailchimp
  • Twilio

Workflow Automation

Move data and trigger work between systems without re-typing.

  • Shopify Flow
  • n8n
  • Make
  • Zapier

Helpdesk Integrations

Tickets and conversations with the order context attached.

  • Gorgias
  • Zendesk
  • Freshdesk

APIs & Webhooks

Inventory and ERP systems, fulfilment and 3PL providers, accounting tools, custom apps — where a system exposes an API or webhooks, the store can be connected to it. Where it does not, we say so during scoping instead of after.

Shopify and the other named platforms are integrated per project using their public APIs, subject to your own account and plan. Flasin is an independent service provider and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, any of them.

Performance

Shopify Speed, SEO & Conversion Optimization

A Shopify store should not only look professional. It should load quickly, work well on mobile devices, be understandable to search engines, and make it easy for shoppers to complete a purchase.

Shopify Speed Optimization

Find what is slowing the store down and remove it, rather than adding another speed app.

  • Oversized and unoptimized images
  • Unnecessary apps and the scripts they leave behind
  • Heavy theme code and render-blocking JavaScript
  • Third-party scripts and tracking tags
  • Core Web Vitals checked on real mobile pages

Technical Shopify SEO

The technical foundations search engines need to crawl and understand the store.

  • Crawlable collection and product architecture
  • Titles, meta descriptions and canonical URLs
  • Redirects for changed and migrated URLs
  • Internal linking and structured data
  • Image optimization and descriptive alt text

Conversion Optimization

Remove the friction between a shopper arriving and completing a purchase.

  • Product-page layout and usability
  • Navigation and collection filtering
  • Clear calls to action
  • Mobile usability and trust signals
  • A shorter, clearer path through checkout

We measure before and after, and report what changed. We do not promise a ranking, a speed score or a conversion rate — those depend on your products, content, competition and traffic as much as on the build.

In practice

Shopify Development in Practice

How Flasin approaches Shopify store development, customization, integrations and automation — and what you have in hand at the end of a project.

What every Shopify project leaves you with

  • Your store, theme and apps in your own Shopify account
  • A written scope of the pages, apps, integrations and automations built
  • A redirect map whenever URLs change or a platform is migrated
  • A record of every connected system, the access it uses and who maintains it
  • A pre-launch test checklist covering checkout, payments, mobile and integrations

Want to see how this would apply to your store? Contact Flasin with a link to it and what you would like to change.

Why Flasin

Why Businesses Choose Flasin for Shopify Development

Development and automation from one team, built around how your business runs — stated as practices, because that is what they are.

Development and automation together

The same project can cover the storefront, integrations, APIs, CRM workflows, AI assistants and business automation, so nothing is lost between two suppliers.

Built around your operations

We look beyond the theme to how orders, customer data, support, fulfilment, marketing and internal workflows actually run.

Custom code when apps are not enough

Shopify Liquid, APIs, webhooks and custom integrations are used where off-the-shelf apps do not meet the requirement — and not where an app does the job.

Clear ownership and documentation

Scope, integrations, credentials, handoff and maintenance responsibilities are defined before launch. The store, theme, content and domain stay in your name.

Careful with credentials

API keys and app tokens are scoped to what each integration needs and kept in configuration, never pasted into theme code.

Migrations planned, not rushed

Products, customers and URLs are mapped before a move, and old URLs are redirected so existing links and search visibility are not thrown away.

These are the practices we build to, not certifications Flasin holds. Payments are processed by Shopify and your chosen payment providers; Flasin never handles your customers' card details.

Packages

Shopify Plus, B2B and wholesale, subscriptions, complex migrations and heavily customized stores are always custom quotes. Any ongoing AI service — a chatbot, a voice agent, an automation — is priced on its own plan. See Shopify development pricing.

How we work

Our Shopify Development Process

Seven stages. The first two decide most of the outcome, which is why they are not rushed.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We look at your products, customers, current store or website, and the systems it needs to work with.

  2. 02

    Store Strategy

    We agree the store structure, apps, integrations and automation in scope — in writing, before any build starts.

  3. 03

    UX & Theme Planning

    We plan navigation, key page layouts and the theme approach: configure, customize, or build custom sections.

  4. 04

    Shopify Development

    We build the storefront, theme changes and Liquid code, and set up products, collections, payments and shipping.

  5. 05

    Integrations & Automation

    We connect the agreed apps, CRM, messaging, AI and workflow pieces, and test each against real cases from your business.

  6. 06

    Testing & Optimization

    Checkout, payments, mobile layouts, integrations, speed and the key customer journeys are checked and tuned before launch.

  7. 07

    Launch & Support

    We go live, verify production, handle redirects for migrations, and stay available for maintenance and improvements.

Timelines depend on catalogue size, how ready your content is, custom functionality, migrations and integrations in scope, and how quickly reviews come back. You get a project-specific timeline after discovery.
