Can Rep AI cancel a Shopify order?

Yes. Rep AI's Cancel Order support skill asks for the order number and email, confirms with the shopper and cancels, and its Change Order Address skill updates orders within time limits you set. Aide does both too, and can also remove an unshipped item or add a note to the order.

How is Rep AI priced?

By monthly website sessions, according to Rep AI's pricing page on November 3, 2026. Sales starts at $12 a month for 3,000 sessions; Support at $49 and Concierge at $130, both for up to 10,000. AI on email, Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp is an add-on at $0.75 per AI-resolved conversation, then $1.20 on overage. Yearly billing is 20% less.

When is Rep AI the better fit?

When selling is the main job, since its behavioral AI opens chat when a shopper hesitates, or you want AI on Instagram, Facebook comments and WhatsApp today, Recharge subscription changes in chat, or its 5x ROI money-back guarantee. More merchants have reviewed it on the App Store, too.

When is Aide not the right fit?

If phone calls carry a large share of your support, Aide won't cover them; it has no voice product. Stores on WooCommerce get order lookups, while edits, cancellations and refunds need Shopify.

How does each work with Gorgias or Zendesk?

Rep AI hands conversations to Gorgias, Zendesk, Kustomer, Freshdesk or Richpanel with the history attached. Aide connects to Zendesk, Gorgias and Front, puts a draft on each new ticket, and starts answering customers when you turn an inbox live.

Does Aide help shoppers buy, too?

Yes. Aide recommends products in a carousel with add to cart, knows the product or collection a shopper is viewing, and shows proactive messages by page, time on page or scroll depth. Orders placed after a chat show in Aide's sales analytics.

Rep AI alternative for Shopify

Pay for the replies, not the traffic.

Rep AI prices by website sessions, so a busy browsing month raises the bill. Aide prices by AI reply, and acts on Shopify orders inside your helpdesk or its own.Updated November 3, 2026 · By Ziyad Basheer

Short answer

Aide is a Rep AI alternative for Shopify brands that would rather pay per AI reply than per website session, with the AI drafting and answering inside Zendesk, Gorgias or Front. Both tools act on Shopify orders, and Aide holds each refund for a person on your team by default.

Pricing unit: Aide: per AI reply. Rep AI: monthly website sessions, by plan.
Entry support price: Aide: free, then $39. Rep AI Support: from $49 for 10,000 sessions.
Email and social: Rep AI: add-on at $0.75 per AI-resolved conversation. Aide: counted as replies.
Own helpdesk: Rep Inbox: ticket tiers plus $20 per agent. Aide Helpdesk: free.
App Store reviews: Rep AI: 4.5 stars, 125 reviews. Aide: 5.0 stars, 3 reviews.
Checked: November 3, 2026, using Rep AI's pricing page, help center and App Store listing.

Where they differ

One candle off, the rest still ships.

Aide can take an unshipped item off an order, as well as cancel it, refund it or change where it goes.

Rep AI's October 2026 update lets shoppers swap size or colour on unshipped orders at the same price, and sends pricier swaps to your team.

Customer

Can you take the second Fig candle off #1073? I only need one.

Aide

Sure. Order #1073 hasn't shipped yet, so the second Fig candle is off the order in Shopify. Everything else ships as planned.

What one month costs

Say a store has 10,000 website sessions, 300 chats and 200 emails in a month, and the AI sends 2 replies per conversation.

Aide: 1,000 AI replies, covered by Starter at $39. Sessions never count.
Rep AI: Support starts at $49 for up to 10,000 sessions. If its AI resolves 150 of the emails, an assumption for the math, the add-on adds 150 × $0.75 = $112.50, for $161.50.

A sale that doubles traffic moves Rep AI into a higher session tier even when support volume stays flat. Aide's bill moves only with the replies it writes.
