What is Lifetimely?
Lifetimely is a profit and lifetime-value analytics app for Shopify, started in Helsinki in 2019.
It reports on daily profit and loss, customer LTV and cohorts, CAC and payback, and ad attribution, with an Amazon add-on and connections to Klaviyo, subscription apps, and seven ad platforms. In 2026 it repositioned around the Profit Agent, an AI that flags findings and proposes actions for you to approve.
What is Metorik?
Metorik is an analytics, reporting, and email marketing platform founded in 2016, built for Woo and Shopify.
Metorik combines real-time reports, segmentation, exporting, subscription analytics, cost and profit tracking, cohorts and forecasting, ad-audience syncing, email automation and broadcasts, and the Tori AI sidekick.
Searching for "Lifetimely vs Metorik"? Same comparison, either way around.
Lifetimely is one layer, Metorik is the stack.
Metorik is the whole stack. Drill into any order, customer, or product, build a segment on hundreds of fields, then act on it: Engage sends abandoned-cart emails, win-backs, and broadcasts to it, and Audience Sync pushes it to Meta and Google Ads. Email is included on every plan.
Lifetimely is one layer of that stack. It reports profit and LTV on top of a Shopify store and an email platform you already pay for. Its segments are report filters, and its Profit Agent can push an audience into Klaviyo (their help center, October 2026), but Klaviyo still does the sending. Run your own numbers.
Shopify Plus, multi-currency, and multi-store, on one plan.
Metorik has supported Shopify since 2020, Shopify Plus and multi-currency included, and one subscription covers several stores, from 5 on the $75 tier up to 250. Run WooCommerce too? Same account, same reports, including Woo Subscriptions.
Lifetimely is built for Shopify, with Amazon as a $75/month add-on. Several stores can share one account, but each needs its own subscription according to their help docs.

Profit & LTV: Lifetimely's focus.
Lifetimely leads on P&L and predictive LTV. It produces a daily profit-and-loss statement, models predicted lifetime value per cohort using data from tens of thousands of stores, reports CAC payback as a built-in metric, benchmarks you against your industry today, and includes Amazon sales in the same P&L. If a daily income statement and a predictive LTV model are the whole job, Lifetimely is built for exactly that.
Metorik covers the same ground inside a broader tool. Costs and profit reporting takes cost of goods, shipping, transaction fees, operating costs, and ad spend from 9 ad platforms and shows net profit and margin per order, product, customer, and segment. Cohort reports track retention and LTV by channel or first product purchased, forecasting projects revenue, orders, and customers, and custom metrics let you define your own numbers.
What Metorik doesn't have as of October 2026: a predictive LTV model, a formal income-statement view, Amazon data, and in-app peer benchmarks (coming early 2027). What Lifetimely doesn't have: WooCommerce, segment exports, ad audience sync, and any email sending of its own.
AI: an included sidekick vs a paid agent.
Tori AI Sidekick & MCP
Tori is your loyal AI Sidekick with full awareness of your store: ask about sales, customers, subscriptions, email marketing, or profit and get accurate answers.
Metorik's built-in MCP connects Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor straight to live store data. Both are included on every plan and the free trial, with no usage fees.
Meet Tori
Profit Agent & MCP
The Profit Agent watches profit, CAC, LTV, and cohorts, reports daily findings, and can build Klaviyo audiences, upsell offers, and dashboards once you approve.
Lifetimely has said AI usage above a monthly allowance will be billed by tokens. Its MCP is also paid-only and works from a data snapshot refreshed every four hours (October 2026).
Pricing: similar number, very different contents.
Both tools price by monthly orders, and on analytics alone they land within a few dollars at most store sizes. The difference is what's included. Metorik's price includes multiple stores, email marketing, Tori, and MCP on every tier. Lifetimely's covers analytics, with email left to a separate platform.

What stood out to me was the partnership. Metorik didn't just point me to documentation - you took the time to understand our business and support us personally.
…also, their support is great as they always respond very fast and take time for our needs.
On top of this the analysis tools are excellent and the customer support is seriously second to none.
Their team is amazing, support is fast, UI is NEARLY perfect, the founder is involved and takes feature requests seriously and quickly if the use-case is clear.

Comparison FAQs
Can't find what you're looking for below? Read our Help Docs
Does Lifetimely work with WooCommerce?
No. Lifetimely connects to Shopify stores, and can connect with Amazon via a $75/month add-on (their integrations page, October 2026). There is no WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Magento connection.
Is Metorik a good Lifetimely alternative for Shopify stores?
For most stores, yes. Metorik covers profit and costs, LTV and cohorts, and forecasting, then adds segmentation, built-in email, exports, and multi-store on one plan. What you give up is Lifetimely's predictive LTV model, daily P&L income statement, and Amazon data.
Is Metorik cheaper than Lifetimely?
Not on analytics alone. Both price by monthly orders (October 2026): Lifetimely is free up to 50 orders, then $49 to 500 and $149 to 3,000; Metorik is $25 up to 100 orders and $150 to 2,000. The calculator above works it out for your store, with or without an email platform on top.
Does Lifetimely send emails?
No. Lifetimely's Klaviyo and Sendlane integrations pull your lists and campaigns in to report on their lifetime value, and its Profit Agent can push an LTV-based audience back to Klaviyo as a list (their help center, October 2026). Klaviyo still does the sending.
Does Metorik have profit reporting and LTV cohorts like Lifetimely?
Yes. Metorik tracks cost of goods, shipping, transaction fees, operating costs, and ad spend from nine platforms, and shows net profit and margin per order, product, customer, and segment. Cohort reports show retention and LTV by channel, first product, or any segment.
Can I connect multiple stores?
Both can. Lifetimely connects several Shopify stores to one account with a consolidated view, but each store needs its own subscription (their help center, October 2026). A Metorik plan includes multiple stores, from 5 on the $75 tier up to 250, across WooCommerce and Shopify.
How do Lifetimely's Profit Agent and Metorik's Tori compare?
Lifetimely's Profit Agent monitors your P&L, CAC, LTV, and cohorts, reports daily findings, and can build Klaviyo audiences, upsell offers, and dashboards. It's on paid plans, with token billing above a monthly allowance planned (their pricing page, October 2026). Tori answers questions and builds segments and charts, and is included on every Metorik plan with no usage fees.
Should I run Lifetimely and Metorik together?
You can, but you'd pay twice for profit reporting, cohorts, and forecasting. The pairing only makes sense if you specifically need Lifetimely's predictive LTV model or Amazon data alongside Metorik's segmentation and email marketing.
