Independent commerce systems company · Focused on Shopify

We investigate first. Then we fix.

When your store, sales channels, apps and data stop agreeing, the cause is hard to pin down. Clint Forge helps Shopify merchants find the real problem, repair the systems involved, and turn repeated manual work into processes you can rely on.

01 / What we do

From finding the problem
to fixing it.

Most engagements start with a free diagnosis: send screenshots or an export, no passwords, and within one business day you hear what is out of sync and why. Once the cause is clear, your own team can take it from there, or we can carry on with the fix, migration or automation.

  1. 01

    Diagnosis

    Compare records across your store, channels and apps, locate where they diverge, and state which causes are confirmed and which still need checking.

    Free · one per store
  2. 02

    Repair

    Fix sync, data and configuration problems. We back up and prepare a rollback before changing anything, then verify each change.

    $50 / $150 / $400 · fixed price after diagnosis
  3. 03

    Migration

    Move history and business rules across completely and safely when you replace an app, inventory tool or process.

    From $300 · fixed by catalog size
  4. 04

    Automation

    Turn repeated exporting, comparing and correcting into scripts or workflows that run reliably.

    Quoted after diagnosis
  5. 05

    Integration

    Connect Shopify with external channels, ERPs or internal systems so data moves by clear rules.

  6. 06

    Ongoing care

    Regular checks on critical flows, with someone ready to step in when something breaks.

    Discussed case by case
See plans & pricing

The diagnosis is free. Fixes have fixed prices: $50 for one setting, $150 for one data flow, $400 for up to 3 flows with a recheck. Migrations are $300 / $600 / $1,000 by catalog size. All communication is in writing, with no meetings.

02 / Problems we solve

Problems emerge
between systems.

Each system looks fine on its own, yet together they disagree. These problems eat the most time, and they tend to come back after being “fixed”.

How it usually shows up

  • “The sync is broken again.”
  • “This app stopped working.”
  • “Why is this SKU’s stock wrong?”
  • “Our data broke after we switched.”

We find the cause first, then decide how to fix it.

What we handle most often

  1. 01

    Channel listings and product data

    Products missing from a channel, attributes that don’t match, or listing states that differ from the store.

  2. 02

    Inventory and order mismatches

    The same product shows different stock in the store and the channel; orders stall halfway.

  3. 03

    Migrations and system changes

    After switching an app or process, history and business rules didn’t fully come across.

  4. 04

    Repeated manual work

    Your team keeps exporting, comparing and correcting, and the same problem keeps returning.

03 / How we work

How we handle
every problem.

Whether it is a single diagnosis or a repair or migration project, we work in this order. You can see what was done at each step and why.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Learn your business, the systems you use and what the problem is affecting.

  2. 02

    Find the cause

    Compare records and data across systems to locate exactly where things diverge.

  3. 03

    Agree the plan

    Explain the cause, the options and the risks of each. You decide what happens next.

  4. 04

    Fix and verify

    Back up and prepare a rollback before any change, then confirm each result.

  5. 05

    Hand over

    Deliver a report or change log covering what was done and why.

Every finding in our reports states how certain it is.

So you can tell what is confirmed and what still needs checking.

Confirmed
Directly supported by data or records.
Likely
The evidence points to one cause, but others are not fully ruled out.
To verify
A working premise used in the analysis that still needs checking.
Unknown
Can’t be judged from current material. The report notes what is missing.

04 / Plans & pricing

Find the issue. Connect the systems.

We help Shopify merchants with connections between stores, channels and apps. The diagnosis is free; once you know the cause, you decide whether you want us to do the fix, at a fixed price for that tier.

Diagnosis is free. You only pay for the fix, at a fixed price you know before you order.

Send screenshots or an export by email, no passwords. Within 1 business day you hear what is out of sync, why, and which tier fixes it.

    Record-by-record comparison

    We compare the redacted exports and screenshots you provide, record each mismatch, and state which conclusions are verified.

    A report you can use

    A discrepancy table, evidence references, impact notes, likely causes ranked by confidence, and the order in which to check next.

  3. 03

    A fixed price for the fix

    The diagnosis tells you which tier fits: $50, $150 or $400. You can order it, or hand the report to your own team; there is no obligation.

What you receive

A report your team can act on.

Every finding comes with its evidence and how sure we are. Your team or the platform’s support can pick it up and keep checking in order.

Sample report. It does not describe a real merchant.

Is it a fit?

Check whether your problem suits a diagnosis.

A good fit when

  1. A listing, inventory or order record has a specific mismatch you can point to.
  2. The problem sits between a Shopify store and a channel such as eBay, Amazon, Walmart or Etsy.
  3. You have records or screenshots that can be redacted and compared with what you expected.

In your first email, tell us

  1. Which channel is involved and roughly when the problem started.
  2. Which record, value or status differs from what you expected.
  3. What materials you could share after redaction.

A description is enough for the first email. Please don’t send passwords or unredacted raw data.

06 / FAQ

Before we work together.

Do you need access to my store account?

Not for the diagnosis. Redacted exports and screenshots are enough. If a later fix genuinely needs access, we explain why, what it covers and how actions are logged, and only proceed with your approval.

My problem isn’t about Marketplace Connect. Can I still get in touch?

Yes. Describe the situation by email and we will tell you whether it is something we can take on. If it isn’t, we will say so.

Do I have to hire you for the fix afterwards?

No. The report is written for your team or the platform’s support, and they can continue from it directly.

How soon do I get the diagnosis?

Within 1 business day of receiving your redacted screenshots or export. It is free, one per store.

Do you only work with Shopify?

Shopify is our main focus today. For other platforms or systems, write to us first and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.

Do you use AI?

Yes, mainly to speed up research, coding and testing. Every report, piece of code and change we hand over is reviewed and tested by a person.

Do I need to join a call or meeting?

No. We communicate in English or Chinese by email and your private order page. Questions about the diagnosis are answered in writing; each fix has its own fixed scope.
