Claude AI is one of the most capable and business-friendly language models on the market. Built by Anthropic, it’s designed for clear, thoughtful output, which is ideal for merchants who need reliable content without waiting around.
With Arigato, you can connect Claude directly to your Shopify store. That means you can automate product descriptions, personalized customer messages, or internal notes based on real-time Shopify events without writing a single prompt manually. You can get the Claude content you need without having to fight with prompting and reprompting to get the copy — or whatever you need from Claude.
What is Claude AI?
Built for helpful, safe, high-quality content
Claude is an AI assistant developed by Anthropic. It was trained to be helpful, honest, and harmless with special focus on alignment and business applications.
Unlike many general-purpose AI tools, Claude is built for predictable, safe interactions. It’s especially good at:
- Writing clear product descriptions
- Summarizing customer behavior
- Drafting short, contextual messages or notes
How Claude helps Shopify stores
By pairing Claude with your Shopify store, you can automate common writing and decision-support tasks without relying on copy/paste workflows or outside tools.
Some examples:
- Create product descriptions using real product metadata
- Draft thank-you notes for high-value customers
- Summarize a customer’s purchase history for support staff
- Write content to metafields, tags, or customer notes automatically
Claude can take raw Shopify data and turn it into something useful, fast.
Using Arigato to connect Claude to Shopify
Arigato acts as the bridge between Shopify and Claude’s API. It listens for events in your store, formats prompts using your data, and delivers the result where you need it.
Trigger prompts from any Shopify event
Want to generate a product description when a new product is created? Or summarize customer behavior when someone is tagged “Needs Review”?
Arigato supports hundreds of Shopify triggers including:
- New product created
- Order placed or updated
- Customer tagged
- Subscription paused or canceled
- Fulfillment events
You decide when to send a prompt, and what info to include.
Build structured Claude prompts with live data
Once triggered, Arigato builds the prompt using real Shopify variables. You can customize:
- The system role (e.g., “You are a product copywriter”)
- The structure and tone of the message
- The max token limit
Arigato sends this data to Claude through a native integration and waits for the response.

Use the response in your workflows
Claude returns a plain text response, and Arigato can immediately:
- Save it as a product description
- Write it to a metafield
- Add it to a note on the order or customer profile
- Send it as an email or webhook
It’s not just a text generator. It’s a working part of your automation system.
Practical examples for Claude AI + Shopify
Write product descriptions at scale
When you add a new product to Shopify, Arigato can send the product title, tags, and vendor to Claude, and Claude returns a full description in seconds.
Arigato can write this into the product field or save it in a metafield for review.
You can also use it to rewrite outdated listings or generate alternate copy for different channels.
Summarize customer behavior before support replies
Before your support team reaches out, Arigato can pull customer info — like order history, tags, lifetime value — and send it to Claude.
Claude generates a short summary your team can read in a second or two. Drop it into the order timeline or email it to the agent handling the ticket.
Personalize customer thank-you messages
If someone places a large order or hits a VIP threshold, Arigato can trigger Claude to write a short thank-you message with their name, order details, and tone guidance.
Send it via email, store it in a customer note, or pass it to your team for review.
