Project description:
"Project Title: Build AI-powered customization flow for Shopify POD store

About the Business:
I’m launching a Shopify store called Custafy, which sells print-on-demand products (mugs, journals, t-shirts, phone cases, baby onesies, etc.). The unique feature of the store is AI customization: customers will type a prompt describing the design they want, and AI will generate a design preview that they can see on the product before purchasing. The order will then be fulfilled automatically through Printful.

What I Need Built:

Integration between Shopify product pages and an AI prompt box.

When a customer enters a prompt, the system should:

Send the prompt to an AI service (e.g., OpenAI / Stable Diffusion).

Generate a design (image and possibly text).

Show the design in real-time as a product preview (e.g., mug mockup with their design on it).

Once the customer approves, the design should:

Be saved and attached to the Shopify order.

Automatically sent to Printful for fulfillment.

The workflow must be seamless (no external logins or extra steps for the customer).

Key Deliverables:

A middleware/app or integration that connects Shopify → AI generation → Printful.

Live product preview on Shopify product pages.

Automated delivery of the final AI-generated artwork file to Printful for production.

Skills Needed:

Shopify app/integration development

Experience with Printful API

Experience with AI APIs (OpenAI, Stable Diffusion, or similar)

Front-end skills for live previews on product pages

Goal:
A Shopify store where customers can:

Select a product.

Type a prompt.

See their AI-generated design live on the product.

Add to cart & checkout.

Have the order automatically fulfilled by Printful.

Budget & Timeline:
Open to quotes and proposals. Looking to move quickly once I find the right developer." (client-provided description)
