What changed

Sidekick, Shopify's AI assistant, can now find storefront improvements and build a draft of each one. It compares the draft with your current store using AI-simulated shoppers, so you see a prediction before anything goes live.

Sidekick only picks changes that can be tested as theme changes and are expected to affect add-to-cart behavior.

Why it matters

  • These results are not tested on real shoppers and are not live A/B tests. Treat them as a guide, not proof.
  • You stay in control. You review each suggested change before deciding whether to apply it.

What to do this week

Nothing yet is required. If Sidekick shows a storefront suggestion, read the draft and compare it with your current page. Apply it only if it fits your brand and you can explain why it should help.
