The problem

Catalog operations shouldn’t require constant manual updates.

Managing a Shopify catalog involves more than adding products. Collection ordering, product tags, and performance reporting can create recurring administrative work.

Product Automator was built to automate these tasks through configurable workflows, allowing merchants to manage common catalog operations without repeatedly making the same changes by hand.

What it does

Collections and sorting

Automatically organize Shopify collections using configurable rules. Features include smart collections based on product sales and moving out-of-stock products toward the end of collections.

Product tags

Create auto-sync tag jobs so product tags stay aligned with rules you define, instead of updating tags product by product in the admin.

Reports

Generate operational and performance reports, including weekly emails identifying best-selling products. The app brings recurring catalog tasks into a single automation tool.
