Connect Shopify: Your Store, Live Inside Your Agent

Connect Shopify: Your Store, Live Inside Your Agent

If you sell on Shopify, your product catalog already lives there: names, descriptions, prices, variants, images, collections. Now you can bring all of it into your Grovity agent, so customers can ask about your products in plain language and get answers grounded in your real inventory.

Connect once, and the catalog comes with it

You point Grovity at your Shopify store with your store credentials, and we pull in your products. You can bring the whole catalog or narrow it to a single collection, include only active products, and clean up messy descriptions along the way, all from the same setup screen.

From there, each product is turned into knowledge your agent can actually search. We process every item (its text, attributes, and images) and convert it into embeddings: a representation that lets the agent find products by meaning, not just exact keywords. A shopper can describe what they want the way they’d describe it to a person, and the agent finds it.

That’s the same semantic engine behind Native Semantic Catalog Search. Shopify just becomes one more way to feed it, without exporting spreadsheets or maintaining anything by hand.

See it in action

A quick demo of connecting a Shopify store and asking the agent about its products:

Customers ask in their own words

Once your Shopify catalog is in, your agent can answer questions like:

  • “Do you have this in black, under $80?”
  • “What’s the difference between these two models?”
  • “I need something for oily hair. What do you recommend?”

The agent answers from your live catalog (real products, real prices, real availability) instead of a generic script or a “let me check and get back to you.”

It stays fresh on its own

A catalog is never done changing. Prices move, products sell out, new items arrive, descriptions get rewritten. So the connection doesn’t just load your catalog once. It keeps it in sync.

You set a simple schedule for how often your agent’s catalog refreshes (every night, twice a day, once a week) and Grovity re-syncs on its own in the background, with no one having to remember to do it. Pick a ready-made schedule (like a nightly refresh) or set your own rhythm. You can also run a sync on demand any time you want the latest changes reflected right away.

Every run leaves a clear record: when it ran, whether it was automatic or manual, how many products were added or updated, and when the next one is due. If something goes wrong, you see it, so you’re never guessing whether your agent is working from yesterday’s prices.

Built to be safe and predictable

A few details we handle for you behind the scenes:

  • Your credentials are protected. The secret that connects to your store is encrypted the moment it’s saved and never shown again.
  • No overlapping runs. A sync won’t stumble over itself; a new run waits if one is already in progress.
  • Full or incremental. Refresh everything, or just what changed since last time, which is lighter and faster for routine updates.

Why it matters

Connecting Shopify turns the catalog you already maintain into something your agent can sell from: accurately, in natural language, and always current. No exports, no manual uploads, no drift between what’s on your store and what your agent knows.
