Jedi ‑ Collection Sort Pro vs ST: Product & Collection Sort
The honest verdict: Jedi ‑ Collection Sort Pro gives you unlimited sort runs, metafield sorting, AI-weighted ranking, and A/B testing on every plan — including the free one — plus the only native Claude/MCP integration in the category and Shopify's Built for Shopify badge. ST: Product & Collection Sort meters your sorting (250 sorts/month free, 1,000 at $19, 5,000 at $49) and reserves unlimited sorting and metafield sorting for its $179/month tier, with no A/B testing at any price. If your collections change often, the quota math decides this one — Jedi never counts sorts.
Pricing compared
The two apps meter different things. ST counts sort runs per month; Jedi counts managed collections and never limits how often they're sorted. If your collections change frequently — flash sales, fast-moving inventory, daily drops — quota math matters a lot.
| Tier | Jedi ‑ Collection Sort Pro | ST: Product & Collection Sort |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | 10 collections, unlimited sorts | 250 sorts/month |
| Entry | $2.99/mo — 20 collections, unlimited sorts | $19/mo — 1,000 sorts/month |
| Mid | $14/mo — 100 collections, unlimited sorts | $49/mo — 5,000 sorts/month |
| Top | $49/mo — 500 collections (custom tiers to 3,500 at $199) | $179/mo — unlimited sorts, metafield sorting, account manager |
A store with 50 active collections re-sorted twice daily burns ~3,000 sorts a month — above ST's $19 tier and most of the way through its $49 tier. On Jedi, that workload fits the $14/month plan with room to spare, because sorts are never counted.

Choose Jedi ‑ Collection Sort Pro if…
- You never want to think about sort quotas — every plan, including free, sorts as often as your store needs.
- You want metafield sorting, AI-weighted ranking, and A/B testing without a $179/month gate.
- You want to manage merchandising from Claude via MCP, or automate it through a REST API.
- You prefer an app carrying Shopify's Built for Shopify quality badge.
Choose ST: Product & Collection Sort if…
- You want sorting driven by your existing GA4 metrics (views, add-to-carts) rather than an app-native analytics pixel.
- You're at the scale where a $179/month plan with a sandbox environment pays for itself.
