Bulk-generate product descriptions in a loop

This is the pattern ~80% of our Shopify users run — pipe product rows through `auto-cheap` for $0.42/M token cost.

// Node.js — works in your Shopify app backend or a one-off script
import OpenAI from "openai";

const aipower = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://api.aipower.me/v1",
  apiKey: process.env.AIPOWER_API_KEY,
});

const products = await shopify.product.list({ limit: 250 });

for (const p of products) {
  const res = await aipower.chat.completions.create({
    model: "auto-cheap",  // DeepSeek V3 — ~50× cheaper than GPT-5.4
    messages: [{
      role: "user",
      content: `Write a compelling 80-word product description for:
Title: ${p.title}
Vendor: ${p.vendor}
Tags: ${p.tags}
Tone: benefit-led, conversion-focused.`
    }],
  });
  await shopify.product.update(p.id, {
    body_html: res.choices[0].message.content,
  });
}

Cross-border? Route translation to Qwen

Chinese merchants selling to US/EU — Qwen outperforms GPT on CN↔EN at 1/20 the cost.

// Translate a batch of listings CN → EN
const translated = await aipower.chat.completions.create({
  model: "qwen/qwen-plus",  // $0.13/M tokens, best CN-EN quality
  messages: [{
    role: "system",
    content: "Translate Chinese product listings into natural, conversion-focused English. Keep brand names, sizes, specs verbatim.",
  }, {
    role: "user",
    content: chineseProductTitle + "\n\n" + chineseProductDescription,
  }],
});

What a typical Shopify store pays

500 products, monthly re-write + chat widget (~10k AI calls/month).

ApproachCost / monthNotes
Shopify Magic (built-in)IncludedQuality uneven · English-only · no bulk
Direct GPT-5.4 (OpenAI)~$40Premium model for every task
OpenRouter (15% markup)~$12No Chinese models, no WeChat Pay
AIPower smart routing~$4All 16 models, Alipay + WeChat Pay

Most Shopify merchants stay under the $5 first-payment bonus credit for month 1. Scale past that = still 10× cheaper than Shopify Magic add-ons.

Shopify-specific FAQ

Does this replace Shopify Magic?

No — Magic is free and decent for one-off tasks. AIPower wins when you need bulk operations, non-English languages, or feature-level cost control. Use both if you want.

Can I use this inside a Shopify App I'm selling?

Yes. Every paying AIPower account gets its own API key. If you're building a public Shopify app, we recommend each merchant gets their own AIPower key so costs and limits are isolated per-store.

How do I keep AI costs predictable at scale?

Use `daily_cap_cents` at the account level — auto-stops when daily spend exceeds your cap. Combine with `model="auto-cheap"` to default to the cheapest working model.

Which model is best for Chinese product copy?

Qwen Plus for translation and bilingual copy. DeepSeek V3 for Chinese-native product descriptions (e.g., selling to Chinese-language audiences on TaoBao/Tmall).

What's the latency? Will my storefront feel slow?

Non-streaming ~1.5s for most models. Use `stream=true` + `model=auto-fast` (Qwen Turbo, <500ms first token) if you're powering user-facing chat widgets.
