Sidekick introduces a new feature allowing users to discover necessary apps quickly and easily. By simply asking for an app or describing a specific goal, users receive tailored app recommendations, can compare similar apps, and initiate installation directly from the chat interface. This innovation replaces the older guided search and comparisons in the Shopify App Store, aiming to create a more efficient path to finding the right tools.
For Shopify Plus merchants, Sidekick's streamlined app discovery process saves time and increases efficiency. It reduces the complexity of searching and deciding among countless apps by providing direct insights and recommendations suited to individual needs, eventually boosting store operations and customer experience.
A merchant wanting to streamline order processing describes their need to Sidekick, which then suggests top-rated apps specifically for order management, leading to a measurable 20% improvement in order processing times.
