Which Shopify apps don’t you need on Waise?
Most stores don’t need a separate app for reviews, volume discounts, a slide-out cart, cart recovery, restock alerts or a Google feed. A typical Shopify store spends about $624 a year on apps, by an outside estimate. Reviews and bundles alone are $359.88 a year. Not everything is replaced, and this page says what isn’t.

What a store saves
The sums use the same prices as the app pages. Waise’s own subscription isn’t subtracted.
- $359.88 a year: reviews and bundles, the two apps we also count on the pricing page.
- About $624 a year: what a typical Shopify store spends on apps. An outside estimate, not a promise.
- $4,259.40 a year: if a growing store bought one app in each of the 12 categories. Almost no store buys them all, and some are only partly covered, so treat it as a ceiling, not a forecast.

What Waise doesn’t replace
- ReConvert and offers after payment: Waise has none.
- Weglot: Waise storefronts run in English and Hebrew only today. If you need more languages, keep Weglot.
- Yotpo: its pricing page and its Shopify listing disagree, so we didn’t build a price comparison.
- Order printing: Waise prints shipping labels and packing slips in bulk, but has no designed invoice templates, so there’s no comparison page.
Who this suits, and who it doesn’t
A good fit
- You pay for several apps that do basic jobs
- You’re opening a store and don’t want to assemble an app stack
Pick something else
- You depend on newsletters, points or A/B tests
- You’re happy on Shopify: stay, these apps are good there
Questions
Does Waise replace every app?
No. These pages say exactly what is covered and what isn’t. If you send regular newsletters, run a points program or need video reviews, keep the app.
How is the saving worked out?
We take the app’s official price for a stated store size and multiply by 12. Where an app publishes no price at a size, the page says “at least”. Waise’s own subscription isn’t subtracted.
Why is there no ReConvert page?
Because Waise has no offers after payment. We build a page only where a real equivalent exists in the code.
The online store that runs itself, with brakes
- AI that acts, with brakes. Pulse changes orders, prices, discounts and content from one conversation. A sensitive change first shows a before-and-after card and waits for your approval, and almost any change can be undone.
- Your money is protected on the server, not by a promise. Anything touching money needs a confirmation tied to the exact values you saw, and the margin guard blocks a price below your minimum, even when an outside AI asks for it.
- Profit, not just sales. An order counts only once your payment provider confirms the money, and profit is worked out after fees, shipping, cost of goods and refunds.
- Open to your own AI. Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini connect to your store over MCP and pass through exactly the same brakes.
- Five ways to build, one system behind them. A ready theme, designing by chat with Pulse, your own code, outside builders like Lovable or Webflow, or your own AI. Checkout, orders, customers and money stay in one place.
- 0% of your sales. One flat monthly plan. When your store grows, our cut doesn’t, because there isn’t one.
- Built by someone who sold. Or Avrahami, a practical electronics and computer engineer, ran an online store on Shopify and built what that store needed. That became Waise.
