What Aspedan Advanced Solutions does

Aspedan Advanced Solutions is a Toronto-based product studio founded in 2023 that builds commerce operations software for e-commerce merchants, with current concentration on the Shopify ecosystem. The company develops three focused apps: Discount Prime, a promotions engine supporting ten discount types (tiered pricing, BOGO, free shipping, volume deals) with real-time conflict detection and per-campaign profit margin tracking; Prime MOQ & Order Limits, a checkout enforcement app for case-pack quantities, order value floors, and freight-safe weight limits; and Gamification & AI / The Ultimate Kings, a beta-stage leadership simulation platform that uses AI to convert gameplay decisions into competency assessments and development plans, built in partnership with Sweden-based eLearnEver.

The underlying technology is built on Shopify Functions (the modern replacement for legacy Shopify Scripts) rather than theme-level overrides, which the company cites as a performance and future-proofing advantage. Pricing and order rules are validated at checkout, preventing customers from bypassing limits via direct cart manipulation. All three products share the same Shopify customer tag system, so a wholesale segment defined once governs both pricing rules and order limits. The company achieved Built for Shopify certification in 2024 and holds a 5.0 rating on the Shopify App Store.

The business model is subscription-based, with a freemium tier on Prime MOQ lowering the entry barrier and an enterprise invitation-only beta for the Gamification & AI product. Distribution is product-led through the Shopify App Store, supplemented by direct sales for enterprise inquiries. Aspedan is bootstrapped and self-funded with no external investment disclosed. As of 2025, the platform has 1,000+ store installs running 2,000+ active campaigns across 64+ countries, served by a team of five. A multi-platform expansion to WooCommerce, Wix, and BigCommerce is announced for 2026.
