Agent-Ready multi-channel ecommerce for custom merch. Design with AI, then list, sell, and fulfill across Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, and more, from one place.
Gelato is the wrong pick for tumblers.
That sounds odd if you know them. Their whole advantage is local production, partners in 32 countries, a German order printed in Europe instead of crossing an ocean. For apparel and posters that's real, and we recommend them for it.
Drinkware breaks the model. Printing on curved insulated steel takes different equipment than printing a shirt, and far fewer of Gelato's partners have it. So the catalog is thin and it's made in a handful of countries. Your tumbler ships from a distant hub anyway. You keep the narrow selection and lose the proximity that justified it.
For drinkware: Printify for range, Printful for consistency, Gelato only if you're already there for everything else.
The bigger lesson is that "best provider" is a per-product question, not a per-store one. The right answer for your posters is often the wrong answer for your tumblers.
We connect all three and take 0% of your print margin. No cut means no favorite, which is why we can just say this.

Both free, both on GitHub.

5 weeks ago we said an AI agent built our entire Shopify store.
Since then we shipped a lot.
Quick update on what an agent ready commerce platform looks like in May 🧵
The thesis is simple: the next decade of commerce is run by agents. The platforms that win are the ones an agent can actually use.
ApparelHub is built for that future.
@ilan_hertz Appreciate that Ilan! That's exactly the goal. The agent handles the tedious stuff so creators can focus on what they're good at. Would love to have you check it out if you're interested. DMs are open 🤙
We gave an AI agent access to our apparel platform and told it to research influencer communities and design merch for them.
It did. Autonomously. Here's what happened 🧵
My name is Antonio. I've been writing software for 20 years. Built this platform over the last 2 years while running my consulting firm.
The goal: make it possible for anyone (or any agent) to go from idea to live merch store without touching a design tool in under 15 minutes.
