Add, rename and reorder variants across hundreds of products. No CSV, no code.
For Shopify stores that have
outgrown the standard setup.
I build what Shopify, your theme and existing apps cannot: theme architecture, checkout and POS extensions, Shopify Functions, integrations and custom apps. You deal with me from the first call to launch.
- 40+ Shopify clients
- Two live apps, one Built for Shopify
- Fixed price, agreed up front
- White label for studios
The work that only happens in your store.
Some problems are yours alone. Four markets diverging into four codebases. A theme switch on a store that cannot go down. A checkout that needs to behave differently for wholesale. Those do not come from the App Store.
I build Shopify theme architecture, Checkout UI extensions, POS extensions and the integrations behind them. The same hands that write the apps.
What I build.
01
Theme development
Custom storefronts and theme architecture, sections your team can edit, migrations, and safe moves from staging to live.
02
Shopify extensions
Checkout UI and POS UI extensions, and Shopify Functions for discount, shipping and payment logic. Functions replace Shopify Scripts, which stopped running on 30 June 2026.
03
Apps and integrations
Custom apps for one store, public apps on the App Store, and the connections to fulfilment, email, calendars and other systems.
Two apps, live on the App Store.
Most problems I solve belong to one store. When the same one keeps coming back, I turn it into an app any store can install. Try one and judge my work before you hire me.
Block undeliverable addresses, upsell at checkout and ask one question after purchase.
How I work
Find, scope, build, stay.
01
Find
Send me the URL and what is bothering you. I read the store and the code, then tell you whether it needs an app, a build, or nothing worth paying for.
02
Scope
I write down what I will build and fix the price before I start. Anything new gets written down and priced first.
03
Build
I write the code, and it matches the Figma: 24px in the file is 24px in the theme. On bigger builds, specialists I trust work under my direction, and I review every change.
04
Stay
After launch I stay on. Your team edits content in the theme editor, and I handle anything that needs code. No silent weeks.
Nikita is an amazing listener, and that is the key. His brain works like a puzzle. As you are talking, he is already putting the pieces together. He understands quickly, executes with precision.
Who you deal with
Build it properly, then get out of the way.
Partners Studio is led by me, Nikita Ahapov. I write the code, I answer the messages, and I am the one you call when something breaks. 40+ Shopify clients so far, and two apps on the App Store, one of them Built for Shopify. Based in Ukraine, working with brands, agencies and designers across the EU, UK and US.
When a build needs more hands, I bring in a small team I have worked with for years: developers and a designer. I direct the work and stay your only contact, from the first call to the handover.
Questions.
001Is this for a store like mine?
If you already sell on Shopify and the standard setup has started to get in the way, yes: a theme that cannot do what you need, a checkout that should behave differently, or a job your team repeats by hand every week. If you need a new store from a template at the lowest price, a marketplace freelancer is a better fit.
002What kind of Shopify work do you take on?
Theme architecture and customisation, Checkout UI and POS extensions, Shopify Functions, integrations and custom apps. Most jobs start inside an existing theme or codebase. Shopify only, and only the build: no ads, no branding.
003Do you work with brands, or with agencies and studios?
Both. Brands hire me directly. Studios and agencies hire me to build their Shopify projects white label, and the studio decides whether I stay invisible or join calls with its client.
004How do you price projects?
Every project has a fixed price against a written scope, agreed before I start. If you need more than the scope, I write it down and price it before I build it. No surprise lines on the invoice, and no promised revenue figures: I put my name to the build, not to numbers I do not control.
005Who actually works on my project?
I do. I write the code and I am your contact from the first call to launch. On bigger builds, specialists I have worked with for years join under my direction, and I review every change before it reaches your store.
006What happens before the work starts?
A 30 minute call, or you send the URL and what is getting in the way. I read the store and the code, then tell you whether it needs a theme change, a custom build, an app, or nothing worth paying for. If it is worth building, you get a written scope and a fixed price before any work starts. NDAs either way, if you need one.
What should I build for your store?
Book a call or send me the URL and what is bothering you. You get a straight answer on whether it is an app, a build, or nothing worth paying for.
