A native page in your Shopify store

Customers get help without leaving your storefront. The portal uses your domain, navigation, fonts, and colors, so it feels like part of your store.

  • Your own domain

    Customers stay on the address they bought from. Nobody is handed a URL with our name in it.

  • Your own navigation

    The header, the menu, and the cart your theme already renders stay right where they were. Help is one more link in it.

  • Your fonts and colors

    Inherited from your Shopify theme — or set by hand, down to the logo, the corner radius, and every block on the page.

  • Or a subdomain instead

    Prefer help.yourbrand.com? Point it at the portal with one DNS record and the certificate comes with it.

Help pages search engines and AI can read

Every article is its own page on your store's domain, in the HTML before any script runs. Google indexes it, and an assistant answering a question about your product can quote it. An answer locked inside a widget is invisible to both.

Support every market from one help center

Write each article once. It’s automatically translated into the languages you support, shown in each customer’s storefront language, and used as the approved source for your AI agent’s answers.

One article, every store locale

  • Works across Shopify Markets
  • Auto-translates the full article
  • Keeps every language in one help center
  • Uses the customer's active storefront language
“Commslayer won us over for several reasons: incredibly fast support, frequent releases with meaningful new features, and a product that truly looks and feels AI-native. MCP connection is a killer feature.”

Frequently asked questions

How the portal works with Shopify, Markets, returns, and order management.

Book a demo
What can customers do in the portal today?

Today customers can browse and search your help articles, see the version for their storefront language, and contact your support team without leaving the page. Native returns, order tracking, and order management inside the portal are coming soon.

Does the portal live inside my Shopify store?

Yes. It loads as a native page of your storefront, with your existing header, navigation, domain, fonts, and colors. You can customize the branding or keep help on a separate subdomain such as help.yourbrand.com.

How does the portal handle Shopify Markets and translations?

It uses the storefront language each customer is shopping in for every locale you enable. Turn on automatic translation to create and update those language versions from one source article, then edit any translation by hand when you need local control.

Can search engines and AI assistants find the articles?

Yes. Each article is a page on your store’s domain, and its content is present in the HTML instead of being locked inside a widget. Search engines can index it, and assistants can read and cite it.

Does the AI agent use the same help articles?

Yes. The portal and AI agent use the same approved article content, so customers get consistent answers whether they search on their own or ask for help.

Are self-service returns available in the portal?

Not yet. Native portal returns are coming soon. When released, customers will start and follow returns in the portal while your team handles approvals and refunds in Commslayer.

Can customers track or change an order from the portal?

Not yet. Order editing is available today in Commslayer chat, on the Shopify checkout thank-you page, and on Shopify customer-account pages. Tracking, eligible changes, cancellation, and issue reporting in the native portal are coming soon.
