How it sells itself

46 automated checks across 8 categories: SEO, product data, images, cost analysis, inventory, content, AI readiness, and storefront validation. Click "Run Audit" from your Shopify admin — we fetch your products via the Admin API, scan your live storefront pages for JSON-LD and canonical issues, and deliver a graded report with step-by-step fix instructions for every finding.

Refiner analyzes your Shopify store pages and catalog to find fixable problems that hurt SEO, trust, and sales. Each issue includes a clear explanation and a suggested fix you can review before anything changes. Apply fixes one at a time or in bulk from the dashboard. Optional theme app blocks handle storefront SEO and performance without editing theme code.
