Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMost stores run on a stack of disconnected tools, each seeing one slice of the business. Magistry replaces that stack with one intelligence. Marketing, advertising, merchandising, tracking, service and operations share a single live data layer, and a fleet of AI agents acts on it around the clock.
Give Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients controlled access to your Shopify store. Each connection gets its own permissions: choose what it may read, change or delete, and which Shopify API operations it may run. Agencies keep several stores connected side by side, one connection per store. Every AI request lands in an audit log, including blocked ones.
- Catalog & pricing agent keeps, optimizes, discounts, or hides products for you
- Ads, shopping feeds, and server-side conversion tracking across Google and Meta
- Customer service agent drafts replies and handles refunds, returns, and cancels
- Chargeback defense, fraud screening, and storefront compliance auditing
- Granular permissions per connection - read, write, and delete per resource
- Full audit log shows every AI tool call, including blocked requests
- Supports products, orders, customers, themes, pages, discounts, and more
