• You want a platform priced on tested users: Convert.
• You want the tests planned, the changes written and the winner called for you, from what your customers say: Tilly, next to your testing app. Try the free audit.

Price testing is not on the entry plan. Shoplift's Core plan covers template, theme and URL tests; price testing starts on Advanced at $399 a month, which is a big step for a store that mainly wants to test prices. source, checked 25 September 2026

Visitors set the price. Plans are based on site-wide monthly unique visitors, and Core covers up to 100k, so a store with a lot of low-intent traffic pays for visitors who rarely buy. source, checked 25 September 2026

Someone still has to decide what to test. Lift Assist can build variants, but choosing the hypothesis, and knowing which customer objection a change should answer, remains the owner's job. source, checked 25 September 2026

The upper plans are a jump. Advanced is $399 a month and Pro $999; stores that only need a few extra features can find the step from Core steep. source, checked 25 September 2026

Each app’s cells come from its own Shopify listing or pricing page, linked beside the words. “Not listed” means we did not find it there, not that the app cannot do it. Tilly’s column is our own product.

Tilly does your Shopify marketing for you. It reads your product pages, your reviews and what customers ask, works out who buys from you and what stops them, and writes for those people: email flows and campaigns, blog posts, SEO fixes, Meta and Google ads, and fixes for the pages that lose you sales.

Everything waits for your approval, then goes where it belongs: emails into Klaviyo as drafts, posts onto your Shopify blog, ads into Meta and Google paused. Every night Tilly reads what each piece earned and writes the next one with what worked, so an ad angle that sells shows up in your subject lines and page headlines too. It also checks every week whether ChatGPT and other AI assistants recommend your store. Plans start at $79 a month, after 100 free credits.

Best for: a store that needs the test ideas and the copy as much as the testing: Tilly's CRO agent finds problems on your pages, ties each to a customer objection, writes the fix as steps you make in Shopify, and the experiments agent plans a test of it, along with email and Meta ad variants, and calls the winner from the counts you enter.

Watch out for: No theme swaps, no price tests, no template-level testing, and it does not split traffic itself. Stores whose testing programme is mostly those should keep a specialist.

Pricing: CRO audit 20 credits, each fix 10, each test 10; Store plan $49 a month for 500 credits after 100 free.

Figures come from each tool's own pricing page or Shopify App Store listing, linked in the table with the date read. Tilly is on the list.

The second table prices the same store on each app. These apps price by visitors, orders or tested users, so check each calculator for your store. Tilly does not split traffic: it plans the tests, writes the changes and calls the winner, next to a testing app rather than instead of one.

Decide what you want to test first. Theme and template tests point to Shoplift; price and shipping tests to Intelligems or a plan that includes price testing; page copy, emails and ads to Tilly; many sites and heavy analysis to VWO or Convert.

Then check how each counts you. Visitors, orders, tested users and active users give very different bills for the same store. Put your own monthly numbers into each pricing page before comparing.

Be realistic about traffic. Every testing tool needs enough visitors and orders to reach a reliable answer. A small store is better served by fewer, bolder tests, and by fixing obvious problems without testing them at all.

Finally, think about who writes the variant. If the answer is nobody, choose a tool that writes it, or budget time for it; an empty testing tool teaches nothing.

Finish or stop live tests before moving. Apply the Shoplift winners you want to keep to your live theme first, so the next tool starts from the version customers are actually seeing, and keep a note of what each test showed.

If you use Shoplift's theme testing for a rebrand, plan that as a one-off project rather than a reason to keep a subscription. Many stores test a new theme once, apply the winner, and then need page-level tests far more often than theme-level ones.

Use the free trials on a real question. Shoplift and Intelligems both give 14 days, Convert 15 and Wingify 30. Pick one page and one change you genuinely want an answer on before starting a trial, so the trial ends with a result rather than a half-built setup.
