01What’s checked
60 checks on what AI search can reach and read.
ChatGPT search, Perplexity and Google’s AI answers send crawlers that read your pages, often without running scripts. We read the store the same way, check its product data and files, and write down only what we found.
Is the product in the page itself?
Name, price, stock, options, tabs and reviews in the HTML, no app or pop-up that hides the product, and one price in one currency for a first-time reader.
- Price and stock
- Options
- No full-screen gate
Can machines read your product facts?
Structured data with the right price and stock, brand and product codes, images, variants, and shipping and return terms.
- Price and stock
- Brand and codes
- Shipping and returns
Is there something worth quoting?
Descriptions with concrete facts, specifications as label and value pairs, size and fit as text, and questions answered on the page.
- Descriptions
- Specifications
- Size and fit
Does the catalog add up?
Vendor, product type, barcodes and SKUs filled in, colors and sizes as variants, and sold-out products that still show their price.

- Barcodes
- Variants
Can AI answer questions about your store?
Shipping, returns, contact and who runs the store, the same figures everywhere, and the files Shopify serves for AI agents.

05Is it a fit?
For stores that want AI search to read them clearly.
We can do the audit, the fixes, or both. The report is yours: use it with your own developer, or have us make the fixes.
A good fit
- A live Shopify or Shopify Plus store
- You want to know if AI search can reach and read your products
- You’d rather fix the basics than pay for AI visibility every month
- You or your developer will act on the report
Not a fit
- Stores that haven’t launched yet
- Platforms other than Shopify
- You want to track what ChatGPT says about you
- You want a promise of AI mentions

07Questions
Before you ask.
Can ChatGPT read my store?
That is what the audit finds out. We read your public store the way AI search crawlers do, often without running scripts, and check whether they are allowed in and whether your products, prices and policies are there to read.
What does the AI/GEO audit check?
60 checks across access for AI crawlers, pages readable without scripts, product structured data, product content, catalog fields, store facts with the files Shopify serves for AI agents, and what a first-time reader sees before the product.
Do you test what ChatGPT says about my store?
No. AI answers change with the person asking, their location and the day, so a test today says little about tomorrow. We check the part you control: whether the crawlers can reach your pages and read them.
Do you need access to my store?
No. We read your public store, its product data and the files it serves, so there is no login and no app to install.
We have a large catalog. Do you check every product?
No. Products share the same templates, so we review your home page, main collections, top product pages and policy pages, plus your catalog data and the files AI crawlers read. A problem on a template applies to every page that uses it.
Will this get my store recommended by AI?
Nobody can honestly promise that, so we don’t. The audit finds what keeps AI search from reaching and reading your store, and ranks the fixes.
How is this different from the SEO audit?
They overlap: both need crawlable pages and correct product data. The AI/GEO audit adds what answer tools need most, like products readable without scripts, product facts as text and store facts. The full store audit covers both without repeating itself.
Do I have to buy the fixes from you?
No. The report is yours: your own developer can work from it. If you’d rather we make the fixes, order AI/GEO optimization within 30 days of receiving your report and get 20% off.
AI/GEO audit or the full store audit?
The AI/GEO audit covers AI search. The full store audit adds conversion and SEO in one report, with one priority plan, for $1,990; the three single audits would cost $2,370.
What if I change my mind?
If you cancel before the start date, you get a full refund. Once the work has started, the fee is not refunded.
