Convot vs Front

Front is a powerful shared inbox.
Convot is a shared inbox that knows each merchant's Shopify revenue, plus the whole support stack.

Front is an omnichannel shared inbox built for team collaboration across email, chat, and social. Convot is a contact-centric inbox built specifically for Shopify app teams, with each merchant's MRR, plan, and LTV beside every thread, plus a help center, roadmap, status page, and scheduling.

The honest take

When should you use each?

Front is a good fit when…

  • You need an omnichannel inbox unifying email, SMS, and social for a larger team
  • Deep collaboration features and workflow automation are central to your ops
  • You support a general business, not specifically Shopify apps
  • You don't need Shopify Partner revenue data beside conversations

Convot wins when…

  • You build Shopify apps and want MRR, plan, and LTV beside every conversation
  • You want a help center, changelog, roadmap, status, and scheduling without five tools
  • You want to see whether support caused a merchant to churn
  • You want a contact-centric inbox where history spans every app you run

Why teams switch

What changes when you move to Convot

Revenue beside every thread

Every conversation shows the merchant's plan, MRR, LTV, and churn risk, pulled live from the Shopify Partner API. You stop treating all merchants the same and start protecting the ones who matter most.

AI that closes the churn loop

When a merchant uninstalls, Convot's AI examines the support history and tells you whether support was the cause, a signal no other tool can produce, so you fix the right thing.

Many tools become one

Chat, shared inbox, help center, changelog, roadmap voting, status page, scheduling, and a Shopify MRR dashboard, all under one login, one brand, and one bill instead of five subscriptions.

Built for Shopify app teams

Convot is purpose-built for the 1–10-person teams behind Shopify apps, Shopify-native (CORS for *.myshopify.com out of the box), revenue-aware, and live in minutes.
