How it sells itself

Shoppers ask AI assistants like ChatGPT,Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot what to buy.They rely on clear,complete product data.Buyable scans your catalog and storefront, scores each product and shows what is missing.Fix with AI rewrites titles,descriptions, categories and image alt text from your own product facts.

Shopify now sends your catalogue to ChatGPT automatically — but it sends whatever data you already have. Vague titles, missing categories and specs buried in paragraphs are invisible to AI shopping agents. Shelfready scores every product out of 100, then proposes fixes drawn only from your own content. Every suggested value quotes the text it came from, so you can check it before applying.

Key points
  • Fix titles, descriptions and alt text with AI, using only your product facts.
  • Review every suggestion first, and undo any applied fix in one click.
  • See the orders and revenue AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude send you.
  • Score every product and your store on what AI shopping assistants look for.
  • Scores each product 0-100 on what AI shopping agents actually read
  • Extracts specs from your own product text into metafields, quoting its source
  • Assigns Shopify taxonomy categories and rewrites vague product titles
  • Applies fixes in bulk, and undoes your last batch with a single click
