Shopify Store Utilities
Toolbench bundles 13 admin tools for change history, checkout rules and store health into one Shopify app, so you can turn on only what each store needs instead of installing a separate app for every job.
Toolbench is a Shopify app with 13 admin tools for change history, checkout rules and store health, and you turn on only the tools you need. It records what changed on products, orders, customers, collections and discounts with the before and after values. It also controls which shipping and payment methods appear at checkout, and flags low stock, catalog gaps and broken links.
Toolbench is for Shopify stores where more than one person edits products, orders and checkout settings. Small stores can run any 3 tools free. Growing teams use Premium to run all 13 at once.
Toolbench combines change history, shipping and payment rules, low stock alerts, catalog checks, broken link redirects and internal notes in one app, so merchants can replace several separate apps with one. Each tool turns on and off on its own, so you only run what you use.
Toolbench adds no code to your theme or storefront. Checkout rules run as Shopify Functions inside Shopify's own checkout, and every other tool works inside the Shopify admin. It works on every Shopify plan, from Basic to Shopify Plus, with one limit set by Shopify itself: outside Shopify Plus, rules that hide, rename or move credit card payment methods don't apply in some countries, including the US and Canada.
Toolbench includes 13 tools. Eleven are available on the Free plan (any 3 at a time), and two need Premium.

Toolbench's checkout rules run as Shopify Functions inside Shopify's own checkout on every Shopify plan, so they add no scripts to your store and need no Shopify Plus upgrade.
Hides, renames or reorders shipping options at checkout based on the cart, the customer and the delivery address. For example, it can hide express shipping when a product tagged "oversize" is in the cart, or rename a rate so customers understand it.
Hides, renames or reorders payment methods at checkout based on rules you set, such as hiding cash on delivery when the cart subtotal is over a set amount. Rules can check the cart, the products, the customer and the shipping address.
Chooses which locations can ship which items, or keeps items together in one shipment. A store can, for example, send frozen products only from its cold-storage location.
Keeps a live list of every product variant at or below its stock threshold, for each location. The store-wide threshold starts at 5 units, and rules can give products their own threshold by tag, collection, vendor, type, SKU, status or location.
Scans your whole catalog and lists products missing images, image alt text, an SEO title or description, a product category or a cost, plus every SKU used on more than one variant.
Catches product and collection URLs that stop working because the item was deleted or its URL handle changed, and shows each broken link with a one-click redirect to a page you choose. Nothing is redirected without your approval.
Adds staff-only notes to orders, products and customers, beyond Shopify's single note field. Each note has a category, and staff add them from the order page under More actions > Tools. Customers never see these notes.
Records which staff members had an order, product or customer page open, and when, which helps explain who edited what. View History asks for no store permissions at all.
A panel on Shopify's order, product and customer pages that shows that record's notes, recent changes and recent viewers in one place. Add it once from the page's app blocks and it appears on every page of that type.
Toolbench has a free plan that runs any 3 tools at a time, with no time limit. Premium is $9.99 a month, runs all 13 tools at once, starts with a 14-day free trial, and adds a small usage charge only when Order Change History tracks more than 1,000 orders in a billing cycle.
Toolbench asks for no store permissions at install. Each tool asks only for the access it needs, and only when you turn it on, so a store that never uses order tools never grants order access. Toolbench only reads your products, orders and customers; it never edits them.
