About the startup
THE PROBLEM Shopify founders spend several minutes every week digging through dashboards to answer simple questions: "What actually moved this week?" "Which products are really profitable?" "Should I adjust pricing or inventory?" The data exists, but it's buried in transaction logs and admin panels. THE SOLUTION Companion does the analysis for you. Every Monday morning, you get one plain-English email that explains what happened in your store, why it matters, and exactly what to do about it. WHAT YOU GET EACH WEEK - Revenue & Order Count (vs last week, with trend arrows) Your actual profit picture - not just sales volume - Top 5 Products by Profit (not just sales) Understand which products actually move the needle - What Changed & Why Price drops, traffic shifts, seasonal patterns - explained in context - One Specific Action Not vague advice. One concrete thing to focus on this week WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most Shopify apps throw metrics at you. Companion tells you the story. We use AI (Claude from Anthropic) to analyze your data in context - comparing this week to last, spotting patterns, and surfacing what actually matters. No dashboards. No complexity. Just signal. Built specifically for founder-led stores ($10k-$50k/month revenue), who actually care about understanding their business. HOW TO GET STARTED No setup wizard. No API keys to manage. Connect your Shopify store in 60 seconds and get your first digest Monday morning. That's it. Founding stores get 3 months free, then 50% off forever (in exchange for honest feedback). WHO THIS IS FOR Solo founders, small business owners, and Shopify merchants who: - Spend too much time analyzing data - Want to make faster decisions - Actually care about profitability (not just volume) - Prefer email over dashboards Tech Stack: Next.js, Supabase, Resend, Anthropic API (we think it's important you know where your data lives and how it's processed) Start using Companion today. See what your real business numbers actually tell you. https://myowncompanion.com/sample
