Overview

Lifetimely is a profit analytics platform for Shopify brands that want to connect store performance with customer and marketing data. It suits merchants who need a fuller view of profitability than sales totals alone can provide. Its order-based plans make monthly volume central to choosing a tier.

The Profit Agent adds recommendations to the reporting, but leaves execution under merchant control. That makes Lifetimely a better fit for teams ready to use connected analytics than for sellers seeking only a basic sales dashboard.

Key features

Lifetimely brings together profit and loss, COGS, operating expenses, marketing spend, LTV, CAC, attribution, products, cohorts, orders and customer purchase behavior. Its reports include customer journeys, profit attribution and custom dashboards, with real-time data refresh. The breadth is useful for assessing whether acquisition costs, retention and product margins are contributing to profit, rather than treating revenue as the whole picture.

The Profit Agent surfaces changes, explains their significance and recommends a next move. It waits for merchant approval before actions run, which preserves human control but means it is an adviser, not an autonomous operator. Lifetimely says the agent is built on more than $100B in GMV across 45,000 stores.

Integrations include Shopify and Amazon, plus tools such as Klaviyo, Recharge, Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, ShipStation, ShipBob and QuickBooks Online. Teams can connect ChatGPT, Claude or Microsoft Copilot Studio through MCP. Slack support lets teams ask store-specific questions based on approved Lifetimely data, and scheduled reports can go to Slack or email. Those connections make the product more useful to teams working across commerce and marketing tools, though the value depends on which services a store uses.

Lifetimely states that its databases are isolated from the internet, database connections are internal-network-only, and backups are kept separately without external access. Amp's privacy policy describes processing and rights under the EU GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and Singapore PDPA.

Pricing

A free plan is available at no cost and caps usage at 50 orders per month. It includes daily P&L, customer behavior analytics, custom reports and dashboards, predictive LTV, benchmarks, product performance insights and sales forecasting. That is a substantive starting point for a low-volume shop, but the 50-order ceiling rules it out for many growing stores.

The M plan costs 149.00 USD per month and allows up to 3,000 orders per month. It includes all features, unlimited integrations and users, 5,000 Profit Agent credits per month and 24/7 support. For a store within the order cap that needs the agent and multiple team seats, it is the first paid tier with those explicit provisions.

L costs 299.00 USD per month for up to 7,000 orders per month and all features. XL costs 499.00 USD per month for up to 15,000 orders per month and adds a dedicated account manager. XXL costs 749.00 USD per month for up to 25,000 orders per month and Platinum support. These higher tiers raise the order ceiling, while the stated additions at XL and XXL are account management and support rather than a different analytics feature set.

Unlimited costs 999.00 USD per month for more than 25,000 orders per month, with personalized setup and white-glove onboarding. Lifetimely also offers a 14-day trial. Paid plans include 24/7 support, while M and above add live chat, custom onboarding and account management; check the order cap and support fit before choosing a tier.

Platforms

Lifetimely is a web platform, and its storefront integrations include Shopify and Amazon. The Shopify app supports English and requires access to customers, products, orders, discounts, marketing, store analytics, Shopify Payments, locations and Shopify Markets settings. Those permissions are relevant to the product's broad analytics, but stores should confirm that the requested data access suits their policies.

Who it's for

Lifetimely is best suited to Shopify merchants who need profit, attribution, customer and product analysis in one place, and whose monthly order volume fits one of its defined caps. It is less suitable for a very small seller whose needs are met by basic sales reporting, or a high-volume store unwilling to pay for a tier above 25,000 orders.

Pros and cons

Pros: Profit, marketing and customer analytics are combined, including LTV, CAC, cohorts and product margins; this helps teams assess growth beyond revenue.
Pros: The Profit Agent recommends actions but waits for approval, preserving merchant control.
Pros: Unlimited users on M and broad integrations can support collaboration across commerce and marketing tools.
Cons: The free plan stops at 50 orders per month, and paid tiers have clear volume ceilings, so scaling stores may need to move up quickly.
Cons: The first paid tier is 149.00 USD per month; that may be difficult to justify for a shop that needs only basic reporting.

Alternatives

Ecommerce Analytics Software is a useful directory for comparing options across the category. Choose PayHelm if you want a free plan with 10 users, a 12-month data lookback, 300+ metrics and support for BigCommerce, Shopify, WooCommerce and Amazon. Profitario is another freemium option with a free plan capped at 50 orders per month and one shop.

Consider Helium 10 for its free tier with limited tool access and two tokens, or SupplySpy for its free plan with 50 Product Capacity and unlimited suppliers. ManageByStats offers a free plan with four seller accounts, review automation and reports, 100 keywords, and a 12-month initial sync.

SellerApp is an alternative with freemium pricing and no free trial. sellerboard is paid, has no free plan, and offers a free trial; its Standard plan is 19.00 USD per month. SellerMobile is another paid option without a free plan, with a Lite plan at 19.99 USD per month.

Verdict

Choose Lifetimely if your Shopify business needs connected profit, marketing and customer analytics, and you want an agent that recommends next steps without acting before approval. Its broad reporting and integrations are compelling for data-led teams, but the 50-order free cap and paid-plan order ceilings make volume and budget the main reasons to look elsewhere.
