APIs that scale with your commerce stack

Where Shopify brands waste engineering time on APIs, and what we fix

Eight problems account for most of the API pain we see. Each one has a proven, production-grade fix we run as standard.

• One-off scripts that breakFragile scripts and Zapier chains that fail when payloads change. We replace them with versioned, tested APIs and proper error contracts.
• No rate-limit or retry strategySilent 429s and lost events under load. We design backoff, bulk operations and queue-based processing so peaks don’t take down your flows.
• Undocumented endpointsOnly the original developer knows how it works. We ship OpenAPI/GraphQL schemas, ownership maps and runbooks so the next engineer can move fast.
• Weak auth and data exposureOver-privileged tokens and public endpoints that shouldn’t be. We implement least-privilege scopes, signed webhooks and secure secrets handling.
• Webhook chaosDuplicate events, out-of-order processing and no dead-letter path. We build idempotent handlers, ordering guarantees and clear failure recovery.
• No observability“It stopped working” with no logs or metrics. We add structured logging, tracing, alerts and SLOs so issues are visible before customers are.
• Tight coupling to Shopify UIBusiness logic trapped in Liquid or admin hacks. We extract it into clean APIs and Shopify Functions so themes and apps stay maintainable.
• Vendor lock-in without exitBlack-box services with no export or ownership. We deliver code, credentials, schemas and deployment docs so you fully own the stack.
