If you’re comparing Shopify quiz apps, RevenueHunt’s Product Recommendation Quiz is a popular choice for straightforward, product-first quizzes. Lantern is a modern RevenueHunt alternative that prioritizes flexible design across every quiz page, deep Shopify data support (including metafields), and transparent, usage-based pricing.

What is RevenueHunt?

RevenueHunt – Product Recommendation Quiz is a Shopify app designed to help merchants guide shoppers to the right products using a visual, no‑code builder. Its Quiz Copilot works inside the app as a conversational assistant that can review your store catalog when prompted, recommend a quiz structure, build the quiz, and help edit existing questions, product connections, recommendation logic, and design elements through chat. It can also assist with translation, custom CSS, and analyzing and improving existing quizzes.

What is Lantern?

Lantern is a Built for Shopify quiz app that turns on-site questions into personalized product paths. You design each step of the journey—welcome screens, questions, transitions, and results—in a visual editor, adding images, explainer copy, videos, opt-ins, or raw HTML wherever you need to educate or reassure shoppers. Answer-based matching, Shopify metafields, skip/show rules, and Logic Jumps work together so different shoppers see different paths and recommendations without anyone writing custom code.

Lantern MCP lets merchants chat with Claude or ChatGPT to create and manage a perfect on-brand quiz, including its questions, recommendations, logic, design, Results Page, integrations, and analytics—all through AI chat. No need to get accustomed to all features and customizations since you can simply ask the AI to build whatever you need from your quiz.

Feature Comparison: Lantern vs RevenueHunt

Feature	Lantern	RevenueHunt – Product Recommendation Quiz
AI quiz creation	✅ Lets you pick up to 30 products and have AI generate questions and logic, or you can describe goals/brand/audience for a tailored quiz.	✅ Quiz Copilot can review the store catalog when prompted, recommend and build a quiz using existing products or collections, and continue editing the quiz through in-app chat, including questions, product connections, logic, images, and styling.
MCP / Claude & ChatGPT	✅ Chat with Claude or ChatGPT through Lantern MCP to create and manage a perfect on-brand quiz.	❌ No MCP connection documented. Quiz Copilot is an AI assistant inside the RevenueHunt app.
Quiz templates	✅ 10+ fully editable templates for different industries and use cases.	✅ 10+ starter templates plus multiple color themes to launch a product finder quickly.
Logic & branching	✅ Skip/Show rules plus advanced Logic Jumps (decision trees) for single- and multi-select questions with Exact/Open/Broad rules.	✅ Conditional logic and branching to guide shoppers down different paths, though with a simpler rules UI than Lantern’s dedicated Logic tab.
Results page customization	✅ Dynamic Content Blocks for tailored layouts, education, upsells, and metafield-based short descriptions—no JavaScript required.	✅ Product-first results layout with configurable content, Display Logic to show/hide elements based on answers or scoring variables, and shareable result pages, more focused on classic product grids than reusable content blocks.
Metafields	✅ Can surface Shopify metafields directly in product tiles or custom blocks on the results page.	✅ Can display selected Shopify product metafields in results-page product blocks or text content (for supported metafield types) and use them in smart-collection rules.
Built for Shopify badge	✅ Yes — Lantern is Built for Shopify	✅ Yes — RevenueHunt is Built for Shopify
Design / code control	✅ Custom CSS, HTML sections, custom JavaScript via Tracking Code (head/body), and font control (including Google Fonts) across current plans inside the quiz editor.	✅ Quiz Design tab with themes, fonts, colors, backgrounds, plus custom CSS and JavaScript consoles on question and result pages; it leans more on global settings and code snippets than on reusable content blocks inside quiz pages.
Publishing options	✅ Four publishing methods: Standalone quiz page, Embed on any Shopify page, Pop-up (manual or auto-trigger), and In-store (dedicated page with store header/footer).	✅ Embed on a page or show as a popup (link-triggered or automatic), plus standalone quiz page links.
Marketing & analytics integrations	✅ Direct integrations with Klaviyo, Omnisend, Mailchimp and others, plus Meta/FB Pixel and Google Analytics for segmented flows and tracking.	✅ Integrates with Google Analytics, Meta and TikTok pixels, Klaviyo, ActiveCampaign, Mailchimp, Omnisend, HubSpot, Zapier, Google Product Feed, and more for marketing and reporting.
Subscriptions, reviews & social proof	✅ Direct integrations with apps like Recharge, Skio, Loop, Smartrr, and major review tools (Judge.me, Okendo, Stamped, Loox, Yotpo, etc.), and support for loyalty programs via Shopify Flow and email tools.	✅ Integrates with Recharge and several review apps (including Judge.me, Stamped, Loox, Yotpo and others) to display star ratings on the results page; however, it has fewer native loyalty and additional subscription partners than Lantern.
Automation	✅ Native Shopify Flow triggers and Zapier support (6,000+ apps) for post-quiz workflows without custom code.	✅ Native Shopify Flow Quiz Completed trigger on the Built for Shopify version, plus Webhooks and Zapier. The Flow trigger can carry quiz answers, recommendations, customer tags, variable scores, and other response data.
Custom Webhooks / Data Export	✅ Up to 3 custom webhook URLs per quiz + CSV export of responses.	✅ Supports multiple webhook URLs per quiz (configurable payload + headers), plus downloadable response exports (CSV).
Cart drawer compatibility	✅ Direct integrations with many popular Shopify cart drawers and built-in carts so add-to-cart from results works seamlessly.	⚠️ Add-to-cart from results is supported, but RevenueHunt doesn’t natively integrate with Shopify cart drawers. Products are added to the regular cart, and keeping a drawer cart in sync usually requires theme-level or developer changes.
Discount codes	✅ Can show and auto-apply discount codes from the results page, including targeted or conditional offers.	✅ Can auto-apply a Shopify discount code at checkout from the results page, or show it as text in the quiz and follow-up emails; however, conditional gating (for example “only if email is captured”) and more advanced targeting are more limited than Lantern’s.
A/B Testing	✅ Built-in A/B testing for comparing quiz experiences, controlling traffic distribution, and reviewing performance metrics in one place.	❌ No native A/B testing feature. RevenueHunt recommends duplicating the quiz, publishing both versions, manually splitting traffic, and comparing their analytics.

Key Differentiators

Compared to RevenueHunt, Lantern is geared toward teams who want their quiz to feel more like a mini landing page than a simple question‑and‑results flow. RevenueHunt’s Quiz Copilot offers a convenient in-app chat experience for both building and editing quizzes: it can review the store catalog when prompted, create a quiz, change question types, connect recommendations, and make visual updates without leaving the builder. Lantern MCP takes a different approach by bringing quiz creation and management into Claude or ChatGPT, with access extending beyond quiz building into areas such as analysis, exports, and broader quiz management. It integrates with what you are already using to make it easy and fast to get your quiz up and running and manage it long term.

Where they differ most is how results are framed. RevenueHunt focuses on a product‑first grid with vote‑based ranking and Display Logic to decide which items or sections show up. Lantern also supports answer‑based matching and ranking, but lets you wrap those recommendations in multiple Dynamic Content Blocks on the same results page—each one targeting a different segment, answer combo, or profile. That makes it easier to pair product recommendations with education, comparison copy, or bundles for specific buyers, instead of relying on a single, one-size-fits-all layout.
Lantern also tilts more toward Shopify‑native merchandising. Direct integrations with subscription apps, major review tools, and multiple Shopify cart drawers mean add‑to‑cart from the quiz can mirror your storefront experience without extra theme work. Both apps support native Shopify Flow automation: Lantern provides its own quiz triggers, while RevenueHunt’s Built for Shopify version provides a Quiz Completed trigger carrying the full quiz response. Both also support Zapier and webhooks for additional workflows.

A/B testing is another area where Lantern gives merchants more room to optimize. With built-in A/B testing, teams can compare two quiz experiences, control how traffic is distributed, and review performance metrics from one test. This makes it easier to test meaningful changes such as quiz length, question order, opt-in placement, results page layout, product recommendation strategy, or discount messaging without relying only on guesswork after launch.

Finally, while both apps use usage-based pricing, the way feature access and scaling work is different. RevenueHunt starts with a Free plan for 100 responses, while integrations such as Klaviyo, Omnisend, Webhooks, Zapier, GA4 and Meta Pixel, plus custom HTML/CSS/JS, are listed from the $39 Basic plan. Lantern keeps all current features available across Free, Scale, and Unlimited, with pricing changing based on quiz-taker volume rather than feature access.

Pricing can change over time. Check each app’s current Shopify listing or website for the latest plans, limits, and feature availability.

Lantern’s pricing is tied to monthly quiz takers and keeps its current feature set available across Free, Scale, and Unlimited. RevenueHunt also uses usage-based pricing, starting with 100 free responses and moving through paid response tiers, but some integrations and code customization begin on its Basic plan rather than Free.

What Lantern’s Users Tell Us

Lantern’s impact shows up clearly with brands like SUP Montreal, a Canadian paddleboard company that rebuilt its buying guide as a quiz and sent paid traffic directly into it. Over a summer campaign, they spent about $1,330 USD on ads driving visitors straight to the quiz and generated $7,405 USD in sales—a 5.57x ROAS. Along the way, they collected 2,058 email leads at roughly $0.65 per subscriber, while also using quiz answers to train staff and support in-store recommendations. You can explore their full setup and results in the dedicated SUP Montreal quiz case study.

Mini FAQ

Is Lantern a direct alternative to RevenueHunt?

Yes. Lantern supports conditional logic, skip/show rules, branching flows, flexible design control, and deep Shopify integration—similar to RevenueHunt—but adds metafield‑aware Dynamic Content Blocks, cart‑drawer integrations, and wider support for reviews, loyalty, and subscription apps.

Can I migrate from RevenueHunt to Lantern?

Yes, that is very easy to do. You can rebuild your quiz with Lantern MCP through Claude or ChatGPT, or use Lantern’s templates and built-in AI setup, then recreate your results logic using Dynamic Content Blocks and optional metafield-based descriptions. Our team can also help you reconnect key integrations such as Klaviyo or subscription apps as part of the migration.

Does Lantern support Klaviyo and email tools like RevenueHunt?

Yes. Lantern integrates directly with Klaviyo, Omnisend, and Mailchimp, and can pass rich quiz data to those tools for segmentation and flows.

How does Lantern’s pricing compare?

Lantern offers a Free plan for up to 50 quiz takers with all current features, while Scale starts at $39/month for 500 quiz takers. RevenueHunt offers a Free plan for 100 quiz responses and Basic at $39/month for 500 responses, but certain integrations and code customization begin on Basic. Because the two apps measure usage differently and package features differently, the best-value option depends on your traffic and workflow needs.

Is Lantern free on development stores?

Yes. Lantern’s Free plan is available on regular Shopify stores and development stores, includes all current features, and supports up to 50 quiz takers per month.

Final Thoughts

RevenueHunt’s Product Recommendation Quiz is a capable, product‑first builder—especially if you want to build and edit guided selling quizzes through a convenient in-app AI assistant alongside standard email integrations.

If you’re looking for that same kind of guided experience but with more control over layout, Shopify data, and how results tie into the rest of your stack, Lantern is a strong alternative. You can mix questions and content blocks on every page, use Dynamic Content Blocks on the results to tailor recommendations and education to different segments, and connect directly to subscription apps, a wide range of review tools, multiple Shopify cart drawers, Shopify Flow, and Zapier automations to turn quiz answers into downstream campaigns and offers. Brands like SUP Montreal have used Lantern quizzes as the centerpiece of paid campaigns, showing how a well-built quiz can pull double duty as both a sales and lead-generation engine.

Start with Lantern’s Free plan for up to 50 quiz takers, move through Scale as usage grows, or choose the $499/month Unlimited plan for unlimited quiz takers and all current features. Unlimited is designed for Shopify Plus and larger stores and includes white-glove onboarding, a personal account manager to help with setup, and a dedicated Slack channel for fast communication.
