How it works

4 steps to start receiving AI-generated product titles that appeal to your target audience

App connector: Shopify • Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured)

Why this matters: This step monitors your Shopify store and kicks off the workflow whenever you create a new product, ensuring every new item gets an optimized title without manual intervention.

This trigger automatically detects when you add a new product to your Shopify store and captures all the product data including the description, which serves as the foundation for AI title generation. The system runs continuously in the background, so there's nothing to configure here - it simply waits for new products to appear in your store. Once a product is created, all its details get passed to the AI step for title generation.

App connector: AI • Time to complete: 2 minutes

Why this matters: This step analyzes your product description and creates a compelling, keyword-rich title that appeals to your specific target audience and follows ecommerce best practices.

The AI system receives your product description and uses it to craft an 8-12 word title that includes relevant keywords and speaks directly to your customers. You need to customize the "What is your target audience?" field by replacing the placeholder text with your specific audience (like "home decor enthusiasts" or "fitness buffs"). The AI prompt is pre-configured to act as an ecommerce merchandising specialist and will generate titles without quotation marks for clean formatting. The temperature is set to 1 for creative variation while maintaining professional quality.

App connector: Approval • Time to complete: 1 minute

Why this matters: This quality control step lets you review the AI-generated title before it goes live, ensuring it meets your brand standards and accurately represents your product.

You'll receive an email notification with the proposed title whenever a new product triggers the workflow, giving you the chance to accept or reject the AI's suggestion. Configure the "Which email should we notify" field with your preferred email address to receive these approval requests. If you accept, the workflow continues to update your product; if you reject, the original title remains unchanged. You can remove this approval step entirely once you're confident in the AI's output quality.

App connector: Shopify • Time to complete: 0 minutes (Auto-configured)

Why this matters: This final step applies the approved AI-generated title to your Shopify product, completing the automation and making your optimized title visible to customers.

Once you approve the AI-generated title, this step automatically updates your Shopify product with the new title using Shopify's API. The system targets the specific product that triggered the workflow and only updates the title field, leaving all other product details unchanged. This happens instantly after approval, so your new optimized title becomes live immediately. No configuration is needed since the product ID and title content are automatically pulled from previous steps.
