Your own numbers,
four steps away.

Revenue history first, with no code. Then one script shows you everything that happens inside your app.

  1. 1

    Create a workspace

    Email and password. That’s it. One workspace holds every app you build.

  2. 2

    Connect your Partner account

    A read-only Partner API token. It’s encrypted at rest, and you can revoke it any time.

  3. 3

    Your history imports itself

    Installs, charges and payouts arrive on their own. Explore the dashboard while it fills in.

  4. 4

    Watch your first event arrive

    Add the pixel, call track(), and see it land in real time. Name it, and it’s in every report.

For developers

Two lines in your app.
One prompt in your editor.

In your code

The pixel records page views and sessions inside your embedded app on its own. Call track() for the moments that matter, or send the same events from your server, up to 50 per call. It fails silently, so it can never break your app.

In your editor · MCP

Add HeyCrust as a connector and ask about MRR, churn and trials, or let your coding agent plan your events, write the tracking code and check the first ones arrived. Included on Growth and Portfolio.

Fair questions

What do you do with my Partner token?

Read-only queries against Shopify’s Partner API. It’s encrypted at rest and never shared, and you can revoke it in your Partner Dashboard at any moment.

Will the pixel slow down or break my app?

It loads asynchronously and is silent by design: if anything fails, it stops quietly instead of affecting your app.

Do you handle billing for my app?

No. Shopify handles billing. HeyCrust reads your charges and payouts so you can see what merchants are worth and when the money lands.

What do merchants see?

Only the emails and review requests you choose to send, from your own sender address and always with an unsubscribe link. Automations only run once you switch them on, and emails based on uncertain data or written by AI wait for your review.

What can the MCP server do?

From ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client you can ask about MRR, churn, retention, trials and individual merchants, plan which events to track, generate the tracking code and verify the first events arrived. It’s included on Growth and Portfolio.

What does it cost?

Free includes analytics and one live automation. Growth is $49/mo or $490/yr; Portfolio is $149/mo or $1,490/yr. Paid plans start with a 30-day trial.

Your merchants already know where they get stuck. Now you will too.
