Pricing
CustomAthos Commerce uses flexible annual plan pricing with no published rate card — all plans require a demo and custom quote via athoscommerce.com/request-pricing.
Three plan tiers are available: Onsite Discovery covers search, merchandising, and personalization for your website with optional AI add-ons (AI Search, AI Merchandising, AI Product Recommendations, AI Bundling). Offsite Discovery covers product feed management across 1,400+ channels with optional AI Feed Management. The Intelligent Discovery Platform (Complete Discovery) combines both Onsite and Offsite under one contract with unified analytics and the Athos Console, plus access to all AI add-ons including AI Data Enrichment.
Three autonomous AI Agents are available as add-ons across plans: Conversational Assistant (available on Complete and Onsite Discovery), Channel Assistant (available on Complete and Offsite Discovery), and GEO Assistant (available across all plans). Every plan is underpinned by shared cloud infrastructure, analytics, open APIs, and pre-built integrations. Onsite and Offsite plans can be purchased independently and upgraded to the full Intelligent Discovery Platform at any point, with data and configurations carrying over.
CustomSignifyd uses fully custom, quote-based pricing with no published flat rates. Costs are typically structured around a merchant's order volume, average order value, and risk profile, since Signifyd backs every approved order with a financial guarantee and prices accordingly. On the Shopify App Store, the Signifyd app itself is free to install, with usage-based fees billed separately by Signifyd outside of the Shopify invoice. Prospective customers need to request a demo or quote directly through Signifyd's website to get pricing tailored to their business.

Summary
Intelligent discovery for AI commerce — search, merchandising, personalization, and feed management in one platform
AI-powered fraud protection with a 100% financial guarantee on approved orders
Athos Commerce Pros & Cons
Pros
- Unified platform combining three market-leading products — Klevu AI search, Searchspring merchandising and personalization, and Intelligent Reach feed management under one roof
- 2,700+ global brand customers including SKIMS, Fabletics, West Elm, Moen, Ripcurl, and Specialized — among the largest customer bases in ecommerce search
- 1,400+ channel integrations for product feed syndication across every major marketplace, social platform, and AI discovery surface
- GEO Assistant makes your products visible in Google Gemini, ChatGPT, and AI shopping surfaces — purpose-built for the agentic commerce era
- 4.5/5 G2 and 4.7/5 Gartner Peer Insights with deep review history across both Klevu and Searchspring profiles
- Backed by PSG Equity with 140+ portfolio companies and 500+ acquisitions — growth capital and M&A expertise for continued platform expansion
Cons
- Custom pricing only — no self-serve sign-up; all plans require a demo and sales quote
- Three underlying products (Klevu, Searchspring, Intelligent Reach) still run on separate contracts and integrations — not yet a single unified platform under the hood
- Gartner and G2 reviews are split across Klevu and Searchspring profiles, making reputation research confusing for buyers new to the brand
- Primarily mid-market and enterprise — not well suited for small Shopify stores under ~$5M annual revenue or early-stage DTC brands
- The Athos brand is relatively new (January 2025) — some agencies and technology partners are still updating integrations and certifications
- AI Agents (Conversational, Channel, GEO) are add-ons at extra cost, not included in base plans
Signifyd Pros & Cons
Pros
- 100% financial guarantee on approved orders removes fraud liability entirely from the merchant
- Backed by a massive Commerce Network of transaction data spanning thousands of merchants for stronger decisioning
- Covers the full order lifecycle, from checkout fraud through chargebacks to returns abuse
- Ranked the #1 payment security and fraud prevention solution for five consecutive years by Digital Commerce 360
- Proven at enterprise scale with customers like Samsung, Walmart, and eBay
- Broad, mature integrations across major ecommerce platforms including Shopify, Magento, and Salesforce Commerce Cloud
Cons
- Pricing is entirely custom with no public rates, requiring a sales conversation to get any estimate
- Best suited to established ecommerce businesses with real transaction volume, so very small merchants may find it more than they need
- Financial guarantee model means fees are tied to your risk profile and order volume, making costs harder to predict upfront
- Recent user feedback flags billing changes and fee structure adjustments that some long-time customers found confusing
- Full value depends on proper integration and configuration across checkout, fulfillment, and returns workflows
