Ai Images And Video Shopify Apps – Analytics & Insights

MetaShop: Instagram & Facebook ranks #1 for ai images and video with 16.2% share — the leader position in a fragmented field where many apps are within striking distance, -5.6pp ahead of Google & YouTube (21.7%). TikTok sits at #3 with 46.9% share, rounding out the top tier. Together, the top 3 apps absorb 84.7% of all ai images and video installs — a highly concentrated landscape with limited room for new entrants.
