About Pollux

We build Shopify software the way we wished someone had built it for us .

Pollux is a two-founder studio. We spent years on the merchant side of e-commerce before we started building tools for it — so we make software that respects your time, your brand, and your money. Our flagship, Dropby, is live on the Shopify App Store today.

Founder-led You reach the people who built it No lock-in
Why Pollux exists

We got tired of software built by people who'd never run a store.

We've been the merchant staring at the app store at 11pm — installing the fifth "solution" that needed an API key, a developer, and a monthly minimum just to do one simple thing. The setup ate an afternoon. Support went to a ticket queue. And the widget still looked bolted on to the storefront we'd worked so hard to make feel premium.

So we started Pollux to build the small number of tools we actually wanted: fast to set up, branded to match your theme, no lock-in, and supported by the people who made them. We'd rather ship a handful of apps that earn their keep than a catalog of features nobody asked for.

The name comes from one of the twin stars in the Gemini constellation — fitting for a studio run by two people. When you email us, that's who answers: the two of us who designed, built, and support every line of what we ship.

What we stand for

Three promises we don't make exceptions to.

You talk to the builders

Email support reaches the two people who wrote the code — not a script, not a queue. Fixes ship in days, not quarters.

Your data is yours

Export everything to CSV anytime. We earn the renewal every month instead of holding your store hostage. No lock-in, ever.

Every feature earns its place

We build the way a merchant thinks — conversions, speed, and clarity first. No bloat to justify a bigger price tag.

The team behind it

Two founders. One you can actually reach.

No call center, no offshore ticket queue. The two people who build Pollux are the two people who answer your email.

Tom Gottselich

Co-Founder

Builds and ships the product, and keeps the engineering honest — if a feature can't pay for itself in a merchant's day, it doesn't go in.

Co-Founder

Owns design, support, and the merchant experience — the reason Dropby looks built into your theme instead of bolted on, and the voice on the other end of support.
