Boost Commerce: cost, fit and limits
Boost Commerce is a Shopify app suite made by Boost that adds product filters, AI-powered search, recommendations, bundles and merchandising to online stores, with monthly plans priced by the store's revenue band. It is built around Shopify.
What to know first
Boost Commerce has three published plans, Launch at $29 a month, Convert at $239 and Accelerate at $399, tied to GMV ceilings of $50,000, $100,000 and $650,000. Stores above $2.5 million GMV go to custom pricing. A 21-day trial with no credit card is offered. AI-powered recommendations arrive with Launch, while AI-personalized versions need Accelerate. All plans are billed monthly with cancellation at any time.

Who Boost Commerce is best for
Small Shopify stores
Launch at $29 a month includes AI-powered recommendations, predictive bundles, pre-order and smart search for stores up to $50,000 GMV.
Wholesale sellers
B2B wholesale features start on Convert, which also adds collection merchandising and promotional banners, so a store that sells to trade buyers can stay on one app.
Stores with stock gaps
Pre-order and back-in-stock notifications are listed, with unlimited back-in-stock notifications on Accelerate, which helps stores that often sell out popular items.

What Boost Commerce does
- AI-powered search
- Smart search and AI-powered search are included from Launch, with in-collection search added on Convert, so shoppers can narrow results inside a collection page as well.
- Predictive bundles
- Bundles are predicted from shopper data on Launch, and Accelerate adds AI-personalized bundles, so suggestions can differ by visitor rather than by product pair. The vendor lists no limit on bundles.
- Pre-order and back-in-stock
- Pre-order is included on Launch, and unlimited back-in-stock notifications arrive on Accelerate, which ties recommendation traffic to demand signals for out-of-stock items. The vendor does not state notification limits for lower plans.
- Sidekick analytics
- Boost x Shopify Sidekick lets a merchant query Boost analytics in plain English inside the Shopify admin, which depends on the analytics retention of 90, 180 or 365 days.
- Shopify Markets
- Shopify Markets features come on every plan, which helps stores that sell in several countries and currencies without paying for a higher tier to get them.
How Boost Commerce handles your data
The pages read give one data statement: analytics are retained for 90, 180 or 365 days depending on the plan. They do not state a hosting region, whether customer data trains AI models, or any certification. GDPR, CCPA and DPA pages are linked from the site but were not opened. The pricing page is very long and only its first 100,000 characters were read. Ask Boost for its data processing agreement and sub-processor list before enabling AI features on a store with customer accounts.
Where Boost Commerce falls short in practice
- Revenue caps. Each plan stops at a GMV ceiling of $50,000, $100,000 or $650,000, so a growing store is pushed to a higher price quickly, and above $2.5 million it must negotiate.
- AI personalization is top tier. AI-personalized search, recommendations and bundles are only on Accelerate at $399 a month, so the cheaper plans get AI-powered but not personalized results. A buyer on Launch should plan for that.
- Short analytics history. Analytics retention is 90 days on Launch, 180 on Convert and 365 on Accelerate, which limits year-over-year comparison on the cheaper plans without an upgrade.
