In their own words
iimpro
iimpro gives Shopify merchants a way to sell through live video, shoppable replays and social content. Merchants can feature synced Shopify products during streams and interact with customers; checkout remains on the merchant’s existing Shopify checkout. After a stream, iimpro automatically turns it into a shoppable replay for the merchant’s website. Merchants can download stream content and make clips for TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, while analytics cover product engagement, clicks, sales, peak engagement moments, video-influenced revenue and live-versus-replay performance. Selected streams can also appear in iimpro’s shopping marketplace. The platform is described for jewellery, fashion and skincare brands in Australia and the UK, and is available on Android, iOS and the web. The Starter plan is free to install, with no monthly subscription and a 6% commission on order subtotals. AI product and theme recommendations, and guidance on when to go live, are marked as coming soon. Sellers remain responsible for listings, delivery, customer enquiries and complaints, returns, refunds and applicable taxes.
Shoplive
Shoplive is a video commerce platform for live shopping, short-form video, video AI, and targeted ads on a brand's store or app. During broadcasts, viewers can add products to their carts and pay in the stream; coupons, countdowns, quizzes, polls, auctions, and point payouts provide additional interactions. Video AI can analyze scenes, find highlights, create clips in multiple formats, and generate videos from images or product URLs. Short-form video offers a continuous feed, curated content, comments, likes, and user-generated content. Shoplive can import Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts and turn broadcast highlights into clips. Brands can manage products through Excel or APIs, moderate chat, and review watch-time, CTR, traffic-source, and broadcast-data analytics. The platform supports 1080p FHD and simulcasts to Instagram, YouTube, and other channels. It provides web, iOS, and Android SDKs, with integrations including Shopify, Cafe24, Godomall, Wisa, and MakeShop. Pricing is by custom quote, based on broadcast frequency, expected audience, integration scope, and selected features.
