What your storefront really costs
One theme. Fewer apps. Less custom code.
Headlands replaces much of that stack with one subscription — and keeps improving it, so a rebuild is never needed.

Built in Shopify’s own editor
No page builder, no separate app to learn. Drag sections into place in the editor your team already uses.
Designed to work together
Heroes, collection grids, comparison tables, FAQs, testimonials, video — every section shares the same type, spacing, and color tokens, so any combination looks intentional.

Add sections without updating
We keep designing new sections, and your store gets them through the Presidio+ companion app. Add them from the editor the day they ship, no theme update required.

Discovery
Our companion app, made to pair with Headlands.
Pairing a theme with a stack of separate apps costs speed, design consistency, and maintenance time. Presidio+ was co-designed with Headlands to replace that stack, and it’s included with your Headlands subscription.
Concern
Generic app stack
Headlands + Presidio+
Design consistency
Each app injects its own markup and CSS
Sections inherit the theme’s tokens — everything looks native
Performance
Six to ten apps, duplicate scripts, layout shift
One theme-app extension, lazy-loaded into existing components
Bundles and discounts
A third-party app fights the theme’s cart markup
Cart Transform and GWP render inside the theme’s own cart drawer
Upgrades
A theme update breaks app placements
Theme and app are versioned and tested together
Onboarding
Manual theme setup, store by store
One-click install and migration from your old theme
Support
Finger-pointing between theme, app, and agency
One team owns both

Browse a live Headlands store with real products, real merchandising, and real page weight. Run your own Lighthouse audit while you’re in there. We’d rather you check.
Performance that holds
A faster store sells more. Headlands stays fast as your catalog grows.
Too many third-party apps can slow any theme down. Presidio+ replaces most of them, so your store stays quick.
Updates you can actually take
Designed to evolve with your store.
With most themes, every update forces a choice: stay on an old version, or redo months of customization. So most stores never update, and slowly fall behind.
Headlands sends improvements as small, individual changes. Take the ones you want, skip the rest, and keep everything you’ve built.
New sections
New features
Performance improvements
Compatibility updates
Presidio+ functionality
Developer support
Your customizations are safe
You own a full copy of the theme’s code on GitHub, so nothing you’ve changed gets overwritten. Updates are added to your store, not swapped in over it, and a log of your customizations shows exactly what each update touches.
Take only what you want
Want the new cart drawer but not the new navigation? Add just that one. Each improvement arrives on its own, so you’re never forced into an all-or-nothing upgrade.
New features, no upgrade fees
New functionality, Shopify compatibility, speed improvements, and fixes ship all year and are included in your subscription — never a paid “version 2”.

Compliance handled
Be found by every shopper on Google, in AI assistants, and with a screen reader.
Accessibility, search visibility, and AI readiness are usually expensive fixes after launch. With Headlands they’re done on day one.
Show up when shoppers ask AI what to buy.
Built with accessibility in mind
Works with screen readers and keyboards, keeps text readable, and announces cart changes. Tested with axe on every pull request. 0 axe WCAG 2.1 A and AA violations on demo stores as of November 2026.
Richer Google listings, no SEO app
Prices, ratings, and stock status can show directly in Google results from day one. The product data Google needs ships correctly formed, so you don’t need another app for it.
Ranks from the moment it’s live
Search engines can read every page and product without anything hidden or delayed, so your store gets indexed and found right away with no technical SEO cleanup required.
Who it’s for
Built for the people who’ll actually work in it.
For developers
Full repository access, a clean modular architecture, and a codebase documented well enough that a new engineer — or their coding agent — can ship in week one. Your workflow stays yours — branch, review, deploy however you already do it — while upstream improvements keep arriving.
For designers
A companion Figma library with every component, layout, and state documented and matched to production. Your team designs new pages in the same system the theme is built from, so what gets designed is what gets built.
For merchandisers
Sections, blocks, and presets that let your team build and change pages without a developer — and without the layout drifting away from the design system every time they do.
Agent-ready
Made to be built on.
Headlands ships with a guide written for AI coding agents, so Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Copilot know the theme’s rules before they touch your code. Your team ships faster, and your store is much harder to break.
No proprietary tooling, no lock-in — and the agent kit stays current as part of your subscription.
A guide written for coding agents
The theme’s rules, events, CSS variables, and icons are documented where agents read them. Parts are generated from the code, so they never go stale.
Guardrails on every edit
Every change is checked against the theme’s rules, and agents can’t push or publish to your live theme.
Skills for real store work
Built-in skills turn designs into theme sections, audit your store, and pull in Headlands updates — with a review checklist and a log of every customization.
A style guide on every store
One page shows your store’s fonts, type sizes, color schemes with contrast checks, buttons, and icons — a shared reference for designers, developers, and agents.
A decade of Shopify experience, in one theme.
