Where Your Team Works: AIMS360 Runway, the Web Interface
Shopify brands ask two versions of the same question. Can my team get to this from a browser, and can they get to it from a phone while they are at market or on the warehouse floor. AIMS360 Runway is the answer to both.
Runway is the AIMS360 web interface. It runs in a browser with no remote desktop session, and the layout works on a phone. It is a continuous build, covering roughly half of AIMS360 functionality today and growing with every release. Grids have advanced filtering and will show any column you need with no cap on how many, which matters because the grid is where operations teams spend the whole day.
Runway and the Remote Desktop interface read and write the same enterprise grade Microsoft Azure SQL database. Nothing syncs between them and nothing drifts, so a brand can put its sales team on phones today while the warehouse and EDI desk keep working in the interface built for those jobs, all on one set of live data. Runway also includes an App Store, where companies and developers publish add-ons across the AIMS360 network rather than waiting on a roadmap request.
Ask Your Shopify Data a Question in Plain English
AIMS360 publishes a plugin in the ChatGPT plugin directory, built on an open MCP server, so the same live connection works with Claude and other MCP capable assistants. Ask which Shopify orders are unshipped past their cancel date, or top ten styles by units shipped this month, and the answer comes from your own live data. Because it runs on an open standard rather than a closed integration, you get every improvement the frontier models ship without waiting for an ERP release. More on AIMS360 AI automations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Shopify ERP, Apparel ERP, and Fashion Software Integration with AIMS360
Does AIMS360 sync Shopify inventory in real time or in batches?
Real time. When a Shopify order comes in, stock is committed in AIMS360 immediately, and when inventory changes in AIMS360 from a pick, a return, a transfer, or a production receipt, Shopify is updated immediately. There is no polling window and no overnight batch, which matters because a batch window is where overselling happens during a launch or a sale.
Does the AIMS360 Shopify integration cost extra?
No. The Shopify and Shopify Plus integration is built by AIMS360 and included in every plan. There is no connector license, no middleware subscription, and no per order transaction fee. Support comes from the same team that built it rather than a third party vendor.
How does AIMS360 stop overselling on Shopify?
AIMS360 holds one master stock record. Wholesale orders, EDI commitments, and marketplace allocations are subtracted before Shopify ever receives a sellable number. Shopify on its own cannot make that calculation because it has no visibility into wholesale or EDI demand. Inventory templates let you set channel specific logic and safety buffers so a launch does not sell inventory that is already promised to a retailer.
Can I access AIMS360 from a browser or a phone?
Yes. AIMS360 Runway is the web interface. It runs in a browser, works on mobile, and covers roughly half of AIMS360 functionality today, expanding with every release. Runway and the Remote Desktop interface share the same Microsoft Azure SQL database, so a sales rep can check styles, stock, and orders from a phone while the warehouse and EDI desk work in the interface built for those tasks, all on one set of live data.
Can I ask AIMS360 questions from ChatGPT or Claude?
Yes. AIMS360 publishes a plugin in the ChatGPT plugin directory, built on an open MCP server, so the same live connection also works with Claude and other MCP capable assistants. You can ask which customers have overdue orders or which styles shipped the most units this month and get answers from your own live orders, styles, and invoices.
