Mowers. Chainsaws. Generators. Snowblowers. Trimmers. Pressure washers. A Shopify compatibility app that maps parts to the engine family and the equipment model — because every small engine shopper already knows the answer lives in both places.
Every replacement part on a mower, chainsaw, generator, or snowblower lives at the intersection of two things — the equipment it's bolted to and the engine powering it. A fit check that only knows one of those is guessing on the other.
A buyer searches "Cub Cadet XT1" and lands on a blade. But the same chassis sells with three different deck sizes and two engine families across the model year. Without engine-level compatibility, the fit check says yes when it should say "which deck do you have?" — and returns come back with the part still in the box.
A Kohler CH740 powers Exmark zero-turns, Ferris mowers, Toro Z Masters, and a dozen other brands. A carburetor mapped to "Kohler CH740" is technically correct — and completely wrong if the shopper's install needs the Exmark-specific fuel line routing or the Toro-specific throttle linkage. Engine-level data alone breaks on installation detail.
Power equipment parts sell in sharp seasonal waves — blades and belts in spring, snowblower shear pins and augers in fall. Equipment is actively down during those windows. A wrong-part order doesn't just lose the sale, it loses the weekend job, the commercial contract, or the storm cleanup — and the customer doesn't come back next year.
ModelMatch installs into the Shopify admin in an afternoon, accepts the compatibility data you already have, and deploys the shopper-facing surfaces that turn that data into closed sales. Documented, auditable, reversible.
Import part-to-equipment and part-to-engine records via CSV, direct Shopify product import, or manual entry. ModelMatch supports the many-to-many compatibility structure that small-engine catalogs actually have — one part can map to dozens of equipment models across multiple engine families, without duplicating SKUs.
The fit check activates on every product page that has compatibility data. The standalone finder (Growth and Professional plans) gives multi-part shoppers a dedicated equipment-first browse surface. The catalog fit check narrows category pages by the specific equipment a shopper is servicing. Each surface is independently toggleable.
Every fit check query is logged. Match events carry through to checkout as verified buyer intent. No-match events surface as a prioritized list of data gaps — so your coverage expands in the order that actually drives revenue, not alphabetically. Admin dashboards show exactly what shoppers are searching for, which searches convert, and where the compatibility database has blind spots.
Every ModelMatch install ships three shopper-facing surfaces, configured per plan. Each surface is documented, individually toggleable, and built to sit inside your existing Shopify theme without modification.
Activates on every product page with compatibility data. Accepts equipment model, engine model, or both. Returns an immediate yes / likely / no answer with the matching cross-reference data visible to the shopper.
Dedicated finder page for equipment-first browsing. A landscaper or homeowner enters their mower, chainsaw, or generator model and sees every compatible part across the catalog. Designed for seasonal tune-ups and multi-part service jobs.
Drop-in theme app block for collection pages. Narrows a 300-SKU blade category, belt category, or filter category down to the parts that fit the shopper's specific mower or engine — without leaving the collection page.
