Agent-Readiness Audit for Shopify
When an AI agent shops your category, does it pick you?
Google's Universal Cart, ChatGPT, and Gemini now shop on your customers' behalf — and Shopify already switched most stores on by default. The Agent-Readiness Audit scores your catalog against the exact signals these agents use to surface, trust, and recommend products — and gives you a prioritized plan to win.
Read-only access. Results in days, not weeks.
The shift
Shopping changed. Your catalog hasn't caught up.
For twenty years you optimized for human attention — hero images, brand story, a persuasive product page. An AI agent doesn't see any of that. It reads your data: structured product info, real-time price and availability, fulfillment terms. When an agent compares you to three competitors selling the same thing, it decides programmatically — and most catalogs were never built to be read by a machine.
The offer
The Agent-Readiness Audit
A fixed-scope diagnostic of your Shopify catalog against the eight criteria AI shopping agents use to select products. You get a clear score, a prioritized fix list, a competitive read, and a branded report you can act on immediately.
- A 0–100 agent-readiness score for your catalog and every product
- Prioritized fix list, ranked by impact and effort
- Live tests showing how AI engines currently describe (or miss) your products
- A polished report your whole team can act on
How it works
Three steps from access to action plan.
01
Connect (read-only)
You grant secure, read-only access to your Shopify catalog. No write access, nothing changed.
02
We score it
We run your catalog through the eight-criteria agent-readiness engine and test it against live AI shopping engines.
03
You get the plan
Within days you receive your scored report and a prioritized roadmap — the exact fixes that move you up the agent's list.
What we check
The eight signals agents read.
Title quality
Agents pattern-match titles against query intent — vague titles vanish from consideration sets.
Description depth
Structured, complete descriptions feed the agent's product summary. Thin copy gets paraphrased into nothing.
Product identifiers (GTIN)
GTIN/MPN/brand triples are how agents resolve 'the same product' across stores. Missing them, you're a stranger.
Variant architecture
Color, size, and material variants must be machine-readable — not encoded in titles or images.
Attributes & category
Google/Shopify taxonomy and rich attributes (material, dimensions, use case) are how agents filter your catalog.
Imagery
Agents inspect image counts, backgrounds, and metadata. Single hero shots underperform multi-angle sets.
Availability signals
Real-time stock, restock dates, and fulfillment windows shape whether an agent surfaces you at all.
Fulfillment data
Shipping speed, returns terms, and service area are weighted heavily by Universal Cart and Gemini.
Proof
What a real audit surfaces.
"One outdoor-furniture catalog scored 71/100. Three concentrated fixes — identifiers, availability signals, and a single unpublished product — lifted it to 79 and doubled the number of 'agent-ready' products. No redesign. Just the right data."
Anonymized client result
Pricing
Simple, fixed pricing.
Priced by catalog size, as a fixed product — no surprises.
Implementation and ongoing monitoring are available after your audit.
Who it's for
Built for Shopify brands that want to win the next shelf.
Great fit
Established Shopify catalogs in considered-purchase or competitive categories. Teams who already care about AI and agent visibility and want a clear plan, not theory.
Probably not yet
Pre-launch stores, or catalogs under a few dozen SKUs. There's not enough data yet for an audit to move the needle.
FAQ
Common questions.
Is this safe? Do you change anything?
Read-only access. We never modify your store during the audit.
How long does it take?
Days, not weeks. Most audits land within 5–10 business days of catalog access.
Do you fix the issues too?
Yes — implementation and ongoing monitoring are available as a next step after the audit.
We're made-to-order / custom — does this still apply?
Yes. The audit accounts for made-to-order availability and custom-goods identifier rules.
Which AI engines do you test?
Google AI Mode / Gemini, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Copilot shopping surfaces.
