Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureAI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews answer shopper questions by reading the content on store pages. This app scans your products, collections, blog posts, and pages, then scores how readable and quotable that content is. It reviews answer formatting, structured data, trust signals, content quality, and technical setup, and lists the issues in order of impact.
Shoppers increasingly ask an AI assistant instead of searching. If your product pages are hard for those assistants to read, you may not come up — and nothing in your admin tells you that. AEO audits your whole catalog against the feed specs answer engines read, then gives you a readiness score for ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity, plus the exact issue holding each product back.
