Get started with GrowthAgent

​
What does this do for me?

This guide walks through installing GrowthAgent and completing the four onboarding steps so the storefront assistant can answer shopper questions.

​
Step 1 — Install the app

Open Storefront Agent from your Shopify admin. The app guides you through Shopify OAuth and creates your shop record.

​
Step 2 — Choose a plan (billing)

The owner setup modal appears after installation. Select a plan — Starter or Pro — and confirm the Shopify subscription. Verified development stores receive Pro access without a charge. Starter includes the base recurring charge and analytics-only AI answer metering. Pro adds platform-paid inference through the managed_ai_answer usage meter. To skip setup for now, select Skip for now. The warning banner on Home continues showing the remaining steps until all four are complete.

​
Step 3 — Sync catalog and policies (knowledge sync)

Open Store knowledge from the app navigation and select Sync catalog & policies. The app imports product information, store policies, and page content so the assistant can answer store-specific questions. Knowledge sync requires billing to be complete first.

​
Step 4 — Publish the storefront assistant

In the Shopify Theme Editor, add the Storefront Agent Chat app block. Confirm that Enable chat is selected and enter the chat service URL (ending in /chat). Ask one question on your storefront to confirm the assistant is live.

​
After setup

Once all four steps are complete, the warning banner and setup modal disappear. The Home dashboard shows AI answer activity for the last 30 days and recent shopper conversations. If a metric or conversation list cannot load, use its Try again action.
