A Smarter Way to Build E-commerce Apps

Describe your products and offer. Instance turns that into a fast, app-like store with collections, PDPs, cart, checkout CTAs, and order tracking—ready to ship.

Plain-English setup

Share categories, variants, pricing, shipping/returns, and the main action (buy, subscribe, pre-order).

Catalog & PDP scaffolds

Home, collections, search, and product pages with galleries, specs, and sticky buy buttons.

Cart & checkout paths

Add-to-cart, mini-cart, discount fields, and clear CTAs that can link to your existing checkout.

Accounts & orders

Account stub, order status views, wishlists, and save-for-later patterns you can extend after export.

Clean, exportable code

Production-ready React + TypeScript with Tailwind—accessible, responsive, and easy to integrate.

Installable PWA

Ship on your domain with app-like behavior and offline shells—no app store wait required.

How It Works

1. Describe your store

Products, variants, price ranges, policies, and your primary CTA (buy now, add to cart, subscribe).

2. Instance builds your app

You get a mobile-first storefront with collections, PDPs, cart, search, proof, and FAQs—ready to review.

3. Publish & iterate

Go live in minutes. Update products, pricing, and promos via prompts or the visual editor; export code anytime.

Why Choose Instance for E-commerce Apps?

Built for thumb-friendly shopping, fast iteration, and easy integrations—so you can sell now and scale later.

Mobile-first UX

Bottom nav, large tap targets, sticky CTAs, and speedy image handling for high conversion on phones.

Fast product discovery

Search, filters, and related items help shoppers find the right product quickly.

Conversion patterns

Risk-reversal notes, reviews, comparisons, and urgency blocks where they matter.

Developer-friendly

Export React/TypeScript to hook up Shopify, Stripe, headless CMS, reviews, or your own APIs.

Promo-ready

Badges, bundles, coupon fields, and cross-sells you can reorder without a rebuild.

Push-ready

Add notifications (back-in-stock, order updates) after export with your preferred service.

International-friendly

Copy and price notes structured for multi-currency and localization in code later.

Update in seconds

Ship new offers, swap images, and tweak pricing without relaunch cycles.

Built to turn scrolling into checkouts

Keep shoppers in flow—from discovery to purchase—with clear value, proof, and always-visible actions.

Why it works

  • Benefit-led: Lead with outcomes and highlight key features right on the PDP.
  • Trust by default: Reviews, returns, and guarantees reduce hesitation.
  • Friction-light: Sticky add-to-cart and fast forms keep momentum.
  • Always live: Publish once; iterate daily as offers and inventory change.
Result: higher conversion, better retention, and faster campaign launches.

Instance vs. generic app builders

Instance
App builders
  • From description to app

    Generates collections, PDPs, cart, and onboarding in seconds.

    Canvas assembly

    Drag blocks for hours before anything feels shoppable.

  • Commerce structure included

    Search, filters, promos, and proof sections come standard.

    Generic layouts

    One-size pages that bury key buying details.

  • Content intelligence

    Writes headlines, benefits, size/spec tables, and CTAs that convert.

    Manual copy

    Replace placeholder text and tune everything by hand.

  • Clean, exportable code

    React + TypeScript; connect Shopify/Stripe or custom stacks after export.

    Vendor lock-in

    Closed widgets that slow you down as needs grow.

  • Edit your way

    Prompt changes or use the visual editor; rollback safely with history.

    Rigid editors

    You’re stuck with limited theme options and plugins.

  • PWA by default

    Installable on phones with offline shells and no app-store delays.

    App-store overhead

    Packaging, submissions, and version friction slow launches.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do we handle checkout?

Start with “Buy” links to Shopify or Stripe Checkout. After export, you can wire a custom cart with taxes, shipping rates, and discounts.

Can we add accounts and order tracking?

Yes—use the account and orders stubs now. Connect your auth provider and order API after export to show history and status.

Does it support variants and inventory?

Product pages include size/color selectors. Hook up your CMS or inventory system in code to manage stock at scale.

What about subscriptions or pre-orders?

Add subscription or pre-order messaging and CTAs today; connect billing (e.g., Stripe) after export to complete the flow.

Can we run coupons, bundles, or upsells?

Yes. Use promo blocks, badges, and cross-sell sections. Tie them to your pricing logic after export.

Is it fast and accessible on mobile?

Pages are responsive with optimized images and keyboard-friendly components. Sticky CTAs and fast forms reduce friction.

Do reviews and UGC fit in?

Show quotes and ratings now. Later, integrate a reviews provider or your own database for moderation and syndication.

Can we send push notifications?

After exporting, connect a push service to send back-in-stock alerts, order updates, and campaigns.

PWA or native app?

Ship a PWA immediately—installable and fast. You can wrap it natively or build a dedicated native app later using the exported codebase as a guide.

Can we use our own domain and analytics?

Publish to a custom domain and keep your tracking. Add CRM and ad pixels in code after export if you prefer.

Can we export everything?

Absolutely. Download the full React + TypeScript project to integrate payments, inventory, CMS, translations, or any custom APIs.
