We really love this app! Although we just use it for 1 or 2 tasks at the moment, it is absolutely worth it. And there are so many more tasks Mechanic could do! Also the customer support is great :)

Eccezionale. E' vero che Shopify Flow può fare cose utili ma Mechanic fornisce una granularità, flessibilità e ampiezza di operazioni di gran lunga superiore. Il punto forte di Mechanic è proprio il fatto che parla la stessa lingua di Shopify ovvero Liquid e si integra perfettamente nel suo ecosistema API. Di sicuro uno strumento immancabile per uno Shopify admin. Il team di Mechanic è sempre stato formidabile nel fornire aiuto e spunti e attraverso la loro community Slack c'è la possibilità di raggiungerli con rapidità, suggerire idee e scambiare consigli con altri utenti. Fortemente raccomandata.

Mechanic is AWESOME. Learning to create the right task for a job using Mechanic has opened up possibilities for my gigantic store with hundreds of thousands of items. I no longer have to listen to Shopify's native AI assistant explain the limitations of various Shopify admin tools and features. I can simply whip up a script on Mechanic to request exactly what information I want to see and what changes I want to make. When Shopify's tools leave me dry, I can always just tell Mechanic to solve it programmatically. You can turn a raw request like "check my whole store for items with a compare-at price between $0 and $15, and then add $5 to that price" into code that does exactly that, and you can customize reporting and etc on the success of that request. Lean on AI LLM's to help you build your tasks. It's worth it!

Mechanic is a great orchestration/automation tool, but I think more importantly the Mechanic team is what the future of an "outsourced brains trust" looks like. They are welcoming and supportive and they know their stuff.
