3D AI sales assistants for Shopify stores
Static product pages underperform when shoppers have questions
Daylily is a Shopify embedded app that puts an interactive 3D AI sales assistant on the storefront—powered by Heygen avatars and Langbase intelligence with per-merchant product memory.
Merchant-facing capabilities
- Interactive avatar experiences that feel consultative, not gimmicky
- Catalog-aware recommendations and upsell paths from Langbase NLU + memory modules
- Usage-based billing with commission handling on attributed purchases
- Admin analytics: sessions, conversions, revenue attribution, exports
Architecture highlights
React.js with Three.js for avatar rendering, Node.js/Express services, MongoDB, Shopify Embedded App SDK, OAuth, and Storefront/Admin APIs—with graceful fallbacks when partner APIs degrade.
Conversion-focused design
We measured success in attributed revenue, not chat volume. Session length, purchase success fees, and merchant dashboards all align with outcomes merchants care about.
Takeaways for Shopify AI apps
- Plan for API volatility—Heygen, Langbase, and Shopify all move; degradation paths are mandatory
- Bill on value—session tiers + success fees align incentives
- Mobile-first shopper flows—most storefront traffic is still phone-sized
