Shopify virtual try-on: how to add it to your store

DrapX is a native Shopify app, so the install is the ordinary Shopify flow: open the App Store listing, click install, approve the permissions, and the widget embeds itself on your product pages. There is no theme code to paste, no Liquid to edit, and no developer to book. Start to finish it takes under 30 seconds, and it works the same way on a theme you bought as on one you built.

Once it is live you can change the widget's colors, fonts, button label, and placement to match your brand. That customization is on every plan, including the free one, so you are not stuck with a generic button until you upgrade.

The shopper taps the try-on button, uploads a photo or takes a mirror selfie, and waits about 8.5 seconds. Our vision model crops and aligns the photo, then the rendering engine maps the garment onto their body while simulating how that fabric drapes, stretches, and catches the light in their photo. The result is a still image they can save, share, or use to make up their mind.

It runs entirely in the mobile browser, which matters more than it sounds. In-store shoppers and social traffic will not install an app to try on a shirt, so anything requiring a download loses most of the people it was built for.

The free plan is $0 for 15 try-ons a month and stays free. It is not a trial with a countdown, there is no card required, and there is no DrapX watermark on the results at any tier. Paid plans are Starter at $19.99 for 150 try-ons, Growth at $44.99 for 500, and Pro at $119.99 for 1,500, billed through Shopify and cancellable from your admin.

The paid tiers are mostly volume. Every feature, including widget customization, try-on analytics, lead capture, and shareable results, is on every plan. The only paid-exclusive option is applying your own brand watermark to generated images. To work out which tier you will land on, estimate try-ons as a share of your product page sessions and run the number through the ROI calculator.

Merchants typically see a measurable conversion change within the first week, and the effect is strongest on items over $80 where hesitation is highest. Across brands running DrapX, reported conversion lifts land in the 10 to 30% range and return rates drop by up to 20%. Your numbers will depend on category, price point, and how prominent the try-on button is on the page.

Every plan includes try-on event analytics, so you can see which products get tried on and which try-ons turn into purchases rather than guessing. Before you install anything, the free conversion simulator will forecast the range for your own traffic.

Two honest limits. First, DrapX is Shopify only right now. There is no WooCommerce app, no headless support, and no public API, so a custom storefront cannot use it. More platforms are on the roadmap, and if you sell elsewhere, tell us where and we will let you know when it lands.

Second, garment coverage. Tops, dresses, jackets, coats, and full outfits are fully supported. Bottoms, swimwear, and accessories are actively being expanded, so if your catalog is mostly denim or jewelry today, check with us first or look at an accessory-focused tool in the app comparison.
