ShelfCite for Shopify

A shopper asks an assistant for the best thing under fifty dollars. The assistant answers from a catalog it crawled. This reads your store the way that crawler reads it, then tells you what it could not use.

The audit is free and it is not a sample. It opens six public URLs on your storefront and up to three of your own product pages, over plain HTTP. There is no browser behind it and no model call, so a check costs nothing and nothing is stored.

The weekly board is the paid half. It asks 7 engines your own category questions and reports, per question and per engine, whether a product of yours was in the answer.

The storeOne field. Everything on this page is the store in it.

The audit reads six public URLs on your storefront and up to three of your own product pages. It runs over plain HTTP. No browser, no model call, nothing is spent per check, and nothing is stored. A store that answers slowly takes about eight seconds.

Can an agent get in

8 crawlers, read off beardbrand.com/robots.txt

A shopping assistant answers from what its operator crawled. A crawler your robots.txt closes cannot put you on a shelf at any price.

What the store publishes about itself

6 public files

Six URLs, each one a file a shopping agent looks for before it reads a page. The UCP profile is the one that decides whether an agent has to scrape you at all.

The catalog, product by field

20 products, 7 fields

Every cell is a slot. The filled part is what your feed publishes and the open part is what it leaves out. A description is measured against 120 characters of real text and a tag count against three, because under either an agent has almost nothing to match a question on.
