How it sells itself

Apps request scopes - including AI and agentic apps. This app classifies each granted scope, flags protected customer-data and broad-write access, and scores your store Low to High (higher is safer). Staff and collaborator reviews get overdue flags; drift alerts fire when scopes, owners, or costs change. Export CSV or PDF evidence. Manual app-cost tracking flags duplicate paid categories.

AppAudit scans your Shopify store and shows you exactly which apps are overlapping, running unnecessary scripts, or adding to your costs without clear value. Most stores accumulate apps over time and end up paying for duplicated features without realizing it.

Key points
  • Review installed apps, granted scopes, and protected-data risk signals.
  • Track staff and collaborator review records without broad staff access.
  • Export CSV/PDF evidence and ownership records for internal reviews.
  • Store health score based on installed apps and theme script analysis
  • Detects overlapping apps doing the same job so you can remove duplicates
  • Prioritized removal list showing which apps to uninstall first and why
